FOLLOWING THE SPA FROG

SANITIZER ROUTINE

During the first month of ownership, measure the sanitizer residual daily in order to establish the correct setting on cartridges for User Load and Usage Time versus

Sanitizer Needed.

The User Load of the spa is the number of times anyone enters the spa. •

The Usage Time is simply the amount of time a user spends in the spa. •

Sanitizer Needed is the amount needed to accommodate the number of users and their combined usage time.•

For example, two spa users who regularly use the spa once an evening for twenty minutes create a specific and somewhat consistent demand on the sanitizer. During

the first month of ownership, these two users can determine exactly how much sanitizer to use in order to maintain the proper residual. If, at any time, the user load and/

or usage pattern changes dramatically (i.e. invited guests), the amount and frequency of sanitizer required increases dramatically.

The greater the usage time, or the bather load, the faster the residual value is diminished.

DOs anD DOn’Ts

DO check your bromine chemical level prior to each use.•

DO change the SPA FROG mineral cartridge every 4 months.•

DO test Total Alkalinity and pH weekly.•

DO use Monarch•

MPS+ non-chlorine (Monopersulfate) oxidizer for spas only.

DO store all chemicals in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place.•

DON’T use sodium bromide or biguanides. These are active sanitizers, and combining with the silver ions will inactivate them.•

DON’T use a water clarifier; clarifiers will cause the spa water to become cloudy.•

DON’T use the Monarch silver cartridge with SPA FROG.•

BROMINE

A. Sanitizing chemicals, such as bromine, are oxidants that kill bacteria and viruses in the water. If you are using the SPA FROG system, the recommended bromine

level for your spa water is 1.0 - 2.0 ppm. If you are not using the SPA FROG system, your bromine level should be between 3 - 5 ppm.

B. Watkins Manufacturing Corporation recommends the use of granulated bromine for sanitizing the water. Granulated bromine is preferred because it is totally soluble,

dissolves quickly and is nearly pH neutral.

C. Maintaining the proper level of bromine during use is extremely important.

D. If the bromine level is too low, bacteria and viruses can grow rapidly in the warm water.

E. If the bromine level is too high, the water can cause discomfort to the user’s eyes, lungs and skin. Simply allow some

time to pass.

F. When the bromine level is within the recommended range, the spa is ready to be enjoyed.

SUPER CHLORINATION

Super Chlorination is a process used to eliminate chlorine smell (if you are using chlorine) by “burning-off” chloramines (used

chlorine). This helps maintain the proper level of free chlorine.

When giving your water a super chlorination treatment, open the cover at least half way for twenty minutes to allow the

chlorine gas to vent off. The high concentration of chlorine gas which may exist as a result of super chlorination (not daily

sanitation) may eventually cause discoloration or degradation to the bottom of the cover, which would not be covered under

the terms of your warranty.

WARNING: There are several forms of stabilized chlorine available for use in spas and swimming pools. Each form has

specific chemical characteristics. It is extremely important that the form you choose is specifically designed for use in spas.

Use of an incorrect product such as tri-chloro, which has a very low pH (2.6), dissolves too quickly in hot water resulting in

extremely high levels of chlorine, and is designed for concrete or plaster swimming pools, WILL cause damage to your spa. Use of a liquid, or any type of compressed

bromine or chlorine, acid, or any type or sanitizer which is not recommended by Watkins Manufacturing Corporation, WILL damage your spa and is specifically not

covered under the terms of the limited warranty.

IMPORTANT: Granulated chlorine (sodium dichlor) will degrade if stored improperly. We recommend purchasing chlorine in one, two, or five pound containers and

storing it in a cool, dry place to maintain its potency.

WARNING: Never leave an open spa unattended, especially if there are children present!
