About this deal

Remove the cover from Lay-Z-Spa to allow evaporation of the chlorine (keep the filter running constantly). Dip a ClearWater® Test Strip in the centre of your Lay‑Z‑Spa, remove and hold it still for 15 seconds. Adjust your pool pH and keep a close eye on chlorination levels. Remember: safe chlorine levels range between 1 and 3 parts per million. If the concentration is above 6 ppm, the pool is unsafe. Clearwater pH Plus , also known as ‘pH increaser’ is the best way to increase pH levels that have dropped below the recommended level. To avoid skin discomforts and enable the chlorine in your spa to work effectively, it’s vital that acidity is monitored and controlled. The recommended pH balance of spa water is between 7.2 and 7.6. The 5 Inch Chemical Floater slowly releases Clearwater Mini Multifunctional Tablets or Chlorine Tablets, making it the perfect accessory for busy spa users who want a hassle-free way of maintaining clear and healthy spa water. The dispenser has an adjustable dial which controls the release of the 20g tablets, ensuring that the sanitizer level of your spa water is consistently and efficiently maintained. Compatible with all spa models.

Before using any chemicals for the pool, you need to understand what it needs. To do this, you need to test the waterwith test strips. It’s like tasting a dish before serving it to guests. The three most important parts of pool water chemistry are pH levels, alkalinity, and sanitizer levels: Make sure that any outdoor storage of chemicals is as far away from your hot tub as possible and in a dry, covered area. Humidity or even small amounts of water can cause chemical reactions that could lead to dangerous fumes.

The ideal alkalinity range is 100 to 150 parts per million (ppm). And you can use baking soda to increase the alkalinity in your pool. pH measures how acidic or alkaline your water is and the ideal range for hot tubs is between 7.2 and 7.6. Balanced pH is necessary for other chemicals to work properly and imbalanced pH levels can impact your hot tub components and cause skin irritation. Clearwater Foam Remover is designed to control and prevent foaming in your hot tub, which is typically caused by the reaction of water with shampoos, deodorants and natural body oils present on the user.

Please note: The table is only applicable to Clearwater® Chemicals. Dosages are only approximate and the effect of chemicals on your water can vary each time you use them, depending on the exact amount of water in your hot tub, water type, water temperature, positioning of hot tub etc. Therefore it is essential to test the water every time before you use it. Most algaecides are copper-based, which are chemical compounds with metal as the central atom. Such a chemical disrupts the normal cellular processes inside the algae, thus killing them and preventing them from developing. What are the signs to understand that you need an algaecide? Dip a ClearWater® Test Strip in the centre of your Lay-Z-Spa, remove and hold it still for 15 seconds. pH levels indicate how acidic or basic the pool water is. Low levels are acidic, while high levels are basic. The ideal level range for the pool is from 7.4 to 7.6. Bestway® Clearwater™ 1 Litre Algaecide is a highly effective way to eliminate algae and prevent a pool from looking murky. Although algae doesn’t do direct harm to swimmers it looks deeply unpleasant and provides an ideal breeding ground for germs and bacteria. Getting rid of swimming pool algae, a microscopic plant that comes in many guises and adores the nutrients found in pool water, couldn’t be simpler. If algae forms on or below the water’s surface you simply pour the recommended dose of algae remover into the swimming pool. Ideally the algae killer should be applied where water inlets are situated so that it disperses evenly and effectively throughout the water. The amount of algae treatment used depends on the size of an above ground swimming pool and the severity of the situation. As with all chemical products, instructions and warnings should be carefully followed and heeded. Thankfully Clearwater™ 1 Litre Algaecide is clearly labelled with all of the necessary guidelines.Drain hot tub to the minimum mark and re-fill with fresh water to the maximum mark, this will help to dilute the excess chlorine. To accurately determine the correct flow for the scrubber, the tray should be full of water but not so much that it is overflowing over the sides. Overflowing over the sides will increase the sound coming from the scrubber.

If you are going away we would suggest emptying the pool and cleaning it so the water is not left to go stagnant. Do no re-fill until you return from your trip. Always pre-dissolve chemicals in a clean, plastic container in a well-ventilated area. When pre-dissolving chemicals always add chemicals to water and not vice versa. Always add the chemicals to the water. Chlorine demand of water too high at start up, after holidays or due to excess contamination or neglect Outdoor storage areas for your hot tub chemicals should be situated away from anything flammable. Keep any petrol-powered equipment, like your lawnmower, in a different location. The storage area should also be away from sources of heat, like an outdoor fire pit or BBQ.Such algae can appear in your pool if someone, before entering the pool, swam in a natural body of water (ocean, river, lake, etc.) and did not wash their swimsuit after that. 💛 Yellow algae The amount of pH increaser or decreaser you need to add to your hot tub depends on the volume of water and how low your readings are. Refer to the dosage information will be printed on the individual chemical bottles. Not balancing the Total Alkalinity levels in your hot tub can cause a number of issues that can impact your spa experience. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.

Total Alkalinity (TA) is the measure of your hot tub water’s ability to neutralise acids. Balanced Total Alkalinity helps control the pH levels and the correct level to aim for is between 80 and 120 parts per million (ppm). Algaecide is a swimming pool chemical to kill or prevent algae from growing in your pool. Its job is to interrupt important processes inside the algae, stopping photosynthesis or provoking an explosion of the algal cell walls. It is best to use an algaecide in combination with a chlorine sanitizer to keep the pool water clean. Around 60% of UK households are in hard or very hard water areas. To avoid scale build-up (which can impact water quality and pump components) use a weekly dose of ClearWater Scale & Stain Controller.

Storing Chemicals

In the event of spillage, clean up using clean receptacles and dispose of carefully. Do not add water to spilled materials. Do not use floor sweeping compounds to clean up spills. Sweep and scoop spilled material into clean, dedicated equipment. Chlorine is a sanitiser that controls and prevents bacteria growth and is essential for the hot tub water to be clean and safe to use. The recommended Free Chlorine* level in a hot tub is 3-5ppm (parts per million). Never use unlabelled chemicals and please read the instructions before use. Avoid getting chemicals in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Avoid breathing vapours when opening a container. Avoid creation of dust. Never add water to the product.
