Calcium Hardness:
(Hard and Soft Water)
Do Not Use Soft Water When Filling Your Spa
This is primarily for two reasons.
1. Soft water tends to be very unstable. This means that locking-in pH and Total Alkalinity levels becomes difficult.
2. Soft water becomes quite foamy with very little turbulence. No amount of “Foam Gone” will stop it from foaming for very long.
What does this mean?
Your spas water needs to have some hardness to it.. If you live in an area where the water source is soft, you will need to add 1 oz. of
“Liquid Hardness Increaser” to raise water hardness level 7 ppm at a time. This will make your water more manageable.
Please follow all printed instructions on the bottle and use in very small increments.
Well Water (Very Hard Water)
In some areas, the water that you have may be very hard (i.e. well water). If this is so, fill half of the spa with hard water and the other
half with soft water from a water softener.
Metal Protector
(Mineral Control at Start-up)
Your Cal Spas’ Clear Water Plan recommends draining and refilling of your spa every three (3) to four (4) months. Upon doing so, you
will want to add 3 oz. of Metal Protector to the center of the spa. Make sure all of the jets are on high speed.
Metal Protector will hold the active minerals in the newly added spa water in a state of “Solution”. The term solution means that miner-
als in the water are being held in a suspended state, keeping them from bonding to anything in the spa and causing damage. Mineral con-
trol is a critical part of maintaining spa components’ performance and longevity.
In addition to fill-up protection from minerals, the Clear Water Plan also recommends the weekly maintenance of mineral protection.
This is accomplished by a adding a weekly dosage of Stain and Scale Defense. (See the following page for more information.)
DO NOT USE SPA BRITE OR LIKE PRODUCTS, ON THE SAME DAY YOU ADD METAL PROTECTOR TO THE WATER. Adding
these chemicals on the same day will result in cloudy water.
Stain and Scale Prevention
(Weekly Mineral Control)
As part of your Cal Spas’ Clear Water Plan, weekly protection from minerals are also highly recommended. Add water to your spa week-
ly, replacing water that has evaporated or spilled over.
Due to water replacement and overall chemical fluctuation, Stain and Scale Defense is an important part of weekly spa maintenance to
prevent minerals from damaging spa components and effecting performance.
Weekly Dosage:
Add 2 oz. of Stain and Scale Defense weekly directly to the center of the spa with all of the jets on high speed.
DO NOT USE SPA BRITE OR LIKE PRODUCTS, ON THE SAME DAY YOU ADD STAIN AND SCALE DEFENSE TO THE
WATER. Doing so will result in cloudy water.
