Water Balancing

Water balancing is the process of maintaining the correct total alkalinity and pH of your hot tub water to ensure that your chosen sanitiser works to maximum effect. Correctly balanced water feels and looks good and protects your spa shell and equipment

Water balancers can be the most difficult hot tub chemicals to use but, unfortunately, if you are using Chlorine or Bromine to sanitise your hot tub then water balancing is extremely important. The sanitiser will only work effectively over a quite small pH range and you must ensure that the pH of your water remains within that range.

If you use an Active Oxygen based sanitising system, such as eco3spa, then the product will work effectively over an extremely wide pH range and you will probably find that water balancing isn't necessary, so reducing your hot tub chemical use.
