Calcium Up
You use SpaCare Calcium Up if you want to increase the calcium hardness of the bath water due to 'soft water', therefore reducing the risk of corrosion of the metal parts of the bath.
Instructions for use SpaCare Calcium Up:
First, measure the calcium hardness with a dedicated meter or test strips. Then adjust the calcium hardness of the bath water to 100-200 mg/litre. If you need to increase the hardness more, for example by 20 mg/l in 1,000 litres of water, add 30 g = 2 x 15 ml Calcium Up.
First dissolve the Calcium Up in a clean plastic bucket and then spread the solution in the water when the water circulation is on. Set the water massage to the lowest speed and then wait for 15 min and check the calcium hardness again. If it is still low add more Calcium Up then you can adjust the pH to between 7.0 and 7.4.
Recommended values
So you should be careful with the dosage and you should also check and adjust the chlorine, pH and alkali levels regularly to these recommended values:
Chlorine content 1,0-3,0 mg/l;
pH 7.0-7.4;
Alkalinity 80-120 mg/l.
Calcium hardness 100-200 mg/l
Maintenance
It is important to change the bath water regularly and to clean the spa at the same time. This is to prevent bad and unhealthy bath water. Ideally, you should use SpaCare Biofilm Cleaner to clean the built-in pipework. This should be done 3-4 times a year and after cleaning you should change the filters or clean them thoroughly. As a result, you will have clean and bacteria-free bathing water.
For the daily operation of the spa, you can advantageously have double filters. This results in a quick change to clean filters. When one cartridge is used in the spa, the other is placed in a cleaner where you have added SpaCare Filter Cleaner. After one to two weeks of use as a filter, the dirty cartridge is exchanged for the clean cartridge in the cleaning tube.
