Spa Recipe
Ingredients
• Nature2 Purifier
• Non-chlorine oxidizer (potassium peroxymonosulfate)*
• Nature2 Spa Test Strips** or Test kits (pH, total alkalinity)
• pH and total alkalinity adjusting chemicals
• Dichlor
| When: |
What to do: |
| Purifier Start Up |
Drain and refill your spa. Balance water
per dealer guidelines. Add 1 teaspoon
of
dichlor to spa per 250 gallons (approx.
1000
litres). (Note: 1 teaspoon = 1/4 ounce
=
7 grams.) |
| Every Day |
Run spa according to recommendation supplied
to you by the manufacturer of your
spa |
| Before Each Use |
Add 1 tablespoon of potassium peroxymonosulfate
(MPS) to spa per 250 gallons (approx.
1000
litres)
(Note: 1 tablespoon = 1 tablet = 3/4
ounce
= 21 grams.) A convenient way to insure
proper
MPS level is to use a Nature2 Spa Test
Strip.
If the Nature2 Spa Test Strip indicates
a
low level of MPS, add 1 tablespoon
of MPS
to spa per 250 gallons and retest. |
| Once A Week |
Add 3 tablespoons of potassium peroxymonosulfate
to spa per 250 gallons (approx. 1000
litres).
Check and adjust pH and total alkalinity.
A convenient way to check pH and total,
alkalinity
levels is to use a Nature2 Spa Test
Strip. |
| Every 4 Months |
Drain and refill your spa.
Replace Nature2 purifier, repeat purifier
start-up. |
| As Needed |
If water looks hazy, shock treat with 1 teaspoon
of dichlor per 250 gallons (approx.

Important
The Nature2 Spa Purifier is not to be used with products containing bromine, sodium bromide or biguanides. If these products are being used, be sure to drain and refill spa with fresh water.
Note:
• As an alternative to potassium monopersulfate, dichlor may be substituted:
1 teaspoon dichlor = 3 tablespoons potassium peroxymonosulfate.
• The use of an efficient ozone generator with Nature2 may reduce the need for supplemental chemical treatments.
* Potassium peroxymonosulfate may cause a lowering of the pH and total alkalinity of your spa water. Please monitor pH and total alkalinity at least once per week and adjust accordingly.
