Step 1: Fill spa using ECO PUR® Charcoal Pre-filter.
Step 2: During initial filling of the spa with fresh water, add a
sequestering agent such as Mineral Clear or Stain and Scale,
etc. depending on the brand name. Allow
to circulate and filter for 24 hours , if practical.
Step 3: Test water for pH, total Alkalinity, and Calcium hardness.
The pH should be 7.2 – 7.8 and the total Alkalinity
80-150 PPM.
Calcium hardness levels should be maintained between
150 and 250 PPM (part per million).
Step 4: Adjust pH, total Alkalinity and Calcium hardness utilizing
the directions on the chemical bottles provided by your
dealers start up kit.
Step 5: It may be necessary to retest and add additional chemicals
to get to the proper levels in Step 2.
Step 6: Add 2 oz. of concentrated chlorinating granules (sodium
Dichlor-s-triazinetreone) per 500 gallons on initial start up
to begin sanitizing the spa water.
SPECIAL NOTE: If you choose to maintain a chlorine residual, we recommend a level
of 0.5 ppm being maintained.
