Clear water Hot Tub, Pool and Spa Test Strips x 50-3 in 1 - Measures Chlorine, PH and Total Alkalinit (Pack of 1 (50 Strips))

Product Information

ensuring plant protection and bather comfort are maintained (the pH level of the eye is consistent with this level). Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description. Free Chlorine refers to the amount of chlorine in your hot tub that is available to sanitise or disinfect the water, keeping it safe for users.

Chemicals react poorly when in contact with sunshine and heat and require a dark, cool environment to control for any potential reactions. Remove the cover from Lay-Z-Spa to allow evaporation of the chlorine (keep the filter running constantly). The award-winning Clearwater® Hot Tub Chemical Starter Kit is a fantastic option for new inflatable hot tub owners and is an easy-to-understand introduction to the world of water treatment. Balanced pH is necessary for other chemicals to work properly and imbalanced pH levels can impact your hot tub components and cause skin irritation. Shock Dose - After filling up with water and before using your hot tub for the first time, shock dosing (adding a larger than normal quantity of Chlorine) your Lay-Z-Spa is necessary to eliminate any bacteria or harmful organisms.Chlorine used in pools helps prevent algae,but extra protection using ClearWater Algaecide really is both prudent and cost effective.

Please note: Allow at least 2 hours between adding each chemical type and only use the hot tub once Total Alkalinity, pH and chlorine are within the required ranges. All you have to do is dip one of the water testing strips into a pool, quickly remove it, hold it horizontally and check the results on the handy colour chart that’s printed on the container. As a guide - a hot tub of 1,000 litres requires 18g to raise Total Alkalinity levels by 10ppm (parts per million).

The middle reading of 7 is neutral, so pool water with a pH below 7 is acidic and pool water with a pH above 7 is alkaline.

We have cleaning packs with tools, antibacterial sprays, and miracle pads or individual items as necessary. Clearwater Dip Test Strips are a quick, easy but essential way to check the chlorine, pH and alkalinity levels of your spa water, allowing you to provide it with the right treatment if necessary. This is to reduce residue from products such as shampoo, deodorant, washing detergent, sun lotion, moisturiser, make-up, fake tan and natural body oils which can cause chemical imbalances.The ClearWater Chemical Measuring Set is a must‑have accessory for all pool and hot tub users and includes 2 measuring jugs, 1 mixing rod and 3 measuring spoons (5ml, 10ml and 50ml) for precise dosage. Using the chlorine, alkalinity and pH testing strips to check water balance enables you to identify what chemicals need to be added to bring them within the correct parameters. 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. ClearWater Clarifier contains flocculants that bind small particles of debris and algae together making it easier for your Lay-Z-Spa’s filtration system to capture and keep the water clear. Total Alkalinity and pH work hand‑in‑hand and if these two are not balanced the sanitizer (chlorine) will not work properly.

This helps filters last longer, reduce the quanity of chemicles that you use treating the spa and also increase the lifetime of your pump. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Storing chemicals requires careful attention to the product label instructions for each individual product. This set makes measuring out your pool and hot tub chemicals quick, easy and more accurate, reducing the expense of overdosing or the reduction in the effectiveness of underdosing. Clearwater pH Plus , also known as ‘pH increaser’ is the best way to increase pH levels that have dropped below the recommended level.
