Spa & Hot Tub Tips

  • First and foremost always balance your water before you add EcoOne™ monthly. You will only have to do this on a fresh or initial fill, then EcoOne™ will lock that balance in for 3-4 months.

  • If you do not use a pre filter or the clean water prep and your water is above 200 ppm lower your pH to 6.8 or 7.0 using a pH down product (a liquid logic minus is preferred).

  • If your water is really soft (some lake water etc) you may have to increase your pH or add calcium to increase hardness. Look to our test strips to help you out . We have 5 way strips that can tell you all you need to know.

  • If your water is excessively hard, we suggest using the EcoOne™ Pre Filter and Cleanwater Prep™ to reduce your water hardness to approx 200 ppm.

  • The enzymes in EcoOne™ are accelerated by "air" being drawn into the water. (keep air jets open during use of spa)

  • You can enhance the rate at which EcoOne™ performs by increasing the amount of time your spa filters per day. If you notice that your spa is constantly turning cloudy and/or has a slight odour, increase your filtration cycle. (16 hours/day or F8 is preferred)

  • Turn your filters UP, so you can turn your sanitizer demand DOWN.

  • pH: Do not fight with your pH. It is common to have pH fluctuations after adding chemicals and while EcoOne™ is decontaminating your spa. Let your jets run and give it some time. 9 times out of 10, your pH will come back into the 7.2-8.2 range on its own. (If it does drop out or increase just adjust it and it will all come back naturally).

  • Our EcoOne™ Fill Hose Pre-Filter removes or reduces these contaminants for up to 40,000 gallons.
