Spa Tips
 These tips have worked very well for The Pool Guy and they should make your spa easier to maintain and leave more time to Enjoy your clean, hot water.
CAUTION: Keep an eye on your alkalinity level. The continued use of Chlorine tablets will lower your pH and your alkalinity

Make sure your filter is clean
 A dirty filter causes a lack of circulation leading to green water and NO FLOW  for the heater

Use Lithium Hypo-chlorite and 1" Chlorine tablets. This combination has worked extremely well in most situations.

A properly fitted, quality cover will save you from higher energy bills due to heat lose and evaporation.

Use an Ozone machine. This will greatly reduce the amount of chemicals you need to add to your spa /hot tub.

Proper water level needs to be maintained at all times for proper operation of your spa /hot tub.
Check water level often.
