Disinfecting The Water; Use Of Special Products; Ozone Generator (Only For Spas With This Feature) - Iberspa INGROUND SPAS Manual De Instalación Y Usuario

Inground Spa Manual
If the pH is above these indexes, use pH MINOR SPA. Wait for two hours before doing the pH
test.
When the pH index has been adjusted to the values indicated above, proceed to the next step.

4.4.3. Disinfecting the water

Disinfecting the water is of utmost importance in order to destroy algae, bacteria and any other
organisms that may grow in the water. However, excessive disinfection can cause irritations to
the skin and eyes.
The appropriate disinfectant for your Spa water is BROMINE TABLETS. Place this product in
the pre-filter for it to gradually dissolve.
Check the level of residual bromine using the Br analyser case on a daily basis.
Residual bromine levels of between 2.2 and 3.3 ppm are recommended.
Should you use Chlorine, in order for it to be effective, you must maintain a concentration of
Free Residual Chlorine of between 0.5 and 1.5 ppm.

4.4.4. Use of special products

In addition to products for maintaining pH and disinfectant levels, there are others especially
designed for use in Spas which will help you to maintain the water and the installations in
perfect conditions.
LIMESCALE REMOVER FOR SPAS: Avoids the formation of calcium salts (scaling),
especially in hard water. This product is added weekly and every time the water is renewed.
ALGAECIDE FOR SPAS: This algaecide prevents the growth of algae in the Spa water.
The product is added weekly and every time the water is renewed.
FOAM REMOVER FOR SPAS: Due to the agitation of the water and the grease present in
it, foam often forms in Spas. Whenever you notice a significant amount of foam in the water,
you can eliminate it with this product.
GREASE REMOVER FOR SPAS: For eliminating the rings of dirt and grease that form on
the walls of the Spa. To use this product we advise emptying the water from the Spa, and
applying the grease remover with a sponge on the areas to be cleaned. Then rinse
immediately with abundant water.

4.4.5. Ozone Generator (Only for Spas with this feature)

Ozone, O , is an oxidising chemical component which is very effective in disinfecting water. Its
3
main advantage is that it leaves no chemical residue and is odourless.
Its disinfectant properties are based on its oxidising potential, which leads to the elimination of
any organic matter that there may be in the water.
In order to produce ozone, some Spas have an ozonator which, with electricity, can produce
ions of ozone from atmospheric oxygen. This process occurs automatically, and the product
generated is injected via the filtration return nozzles. Thus, it is not necessary for the user to
activate any mechanism for its generation.
The water is collected by the overflow, the drains or the skimmer, due to the suction of the filter
pump.
Then it passes through the heat exchanger and in its outlet it is injected with ozone. The water
is distributed via the filtration return system.
Ozone treatment does not exclude the use of other chemical products such as Bromine or
Chlorine.
The ozone is considered as a complementary process to the ones above, thus reducing the
consumption of Bromine or Chlorine.
