For Maintenance of pH, Bromine Residual and Water Quality:
- Test the pH of the water daily with a bromine/pH test kit daily and maintain the pH level between 7.2-7.8 because the pH of this product is buffered in this range and will not adversely affect the pH of the water. Do not allow the pH to fall below 7.2.
- Test the bromine residual daily with a bromine/pH test kit. The bromine residual must be between 1-3 ppm. Heavy usage or the length of time the spa or hot tub is in use may result in depletion of bromine and require additional dosages of this product and/or Sirona Spa Care Enhance Bromide Salt Solution to maintain the desired bromine residual. Never mix any chemicals with each other before adding to the spa or hot tub water.
