Always add the chemicals to the water.Dissolve the quantity of Chlorine Granules in a jug of warm water and pour into your hot tub. Activate the AirJets for a few minutes to circulate the chemicals evenly throughout the water. Not balancing the Total Alkalinity levels in your hot tub can cause a number of issues that can impact your spa experience. Make sure that any outdoor storage of chemicals is as far away from your hot tub as possible and in a dry, covered area.

For low pH levels below 7.2 you will need to use pH Plus to help raise the pH levels and balance the water.
