Why does my water smell?

A modern spa often contains up to 100 metres of hoses and pipes. If these are not cleaned regularly, it is difficult to avoid bacteria and dirt in the pipework.

If you ensure that there is enough disinfectant in the bath (bromine and chlorine) - even when you are not bathing - the intervals between pipe cleanings will be longer. As usual, for the disinfectants to be fully effective, the water must be kept in balance (PH and alkalinity).

Unfortunately, forgetting to keep the water in balance and allowing it to stand without disinfectant - even for a short time - will inevitably lead to the formation of a layer of biofilm in the bath's pipework.

When biofilm is allowed to grow in pipes and hoses, it creates the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. You will also notice the formation of bacteria through your own senses as there is an acidic odour and also through the visual presence of brown "jelly lumps" in the spa.

In view of the above, it is important that 2-4 times a year you add either Delphin pipe cleaner or SpaCare biofilm cleaner during water changes. The products have been developed to effectively remove deposits of skin fat, hair and similar while disinfecting the spa.

The brown edge of dirt that often forms at the waterline after cleaning the pipework can be easily removed with the SpaCare Spaclean Spray.

NOTE! Remember, when adding maintenance products to the spa, the circulation pump (massage pump) should be running, but the air intake should be closed. Your Sannra-Spalock should also be removed to avoid damage.
