Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale is a specialized liquid concentrate formulated to prevent and eliminate staining and scale formation in hot tubs. It effectively addresses issues arising from hard water minerals such as calcium, iron, copper, and manganese, which can lead to unsightly stains and scale buildup on spa surfaces and equipment.
A Necessity for Hot Tub Care & Personal Health
Regular use of Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale is essential for several reasons:
Equipment Longevity:
Scale buildup can impair the efficiency of heaters, pumps, and filters, leading to increased energy consumption and potential equipment failure. By preventing scale formation, the product helps maintain optimal performance and extends the lifespan of spa components.
Aesthetic Maintenance:
Metal stains and scale deposits can mar the appearance of your hot tub, making it less inviting. Consistent application of the product ensures a clean and visually appealing spa environment.
Health & Hygiene:
Scale and stains can create rough surfaces that harbor bacteria, posing health risks to users. Maintaining smooth, clean surfaces contributes to a more hygienic spa experience.
Dosage & Frequency
The recommended usage of Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale is as follows:
Initial Treatment:
Upon filling your hot tub with fresh water, add 60 milliliters (approximately 2 ounces) of the product per 1,000 liters of water. This initial dose helps sequester metals and minerals present in the source water.
Weekly Maintenance:
To prevent ongoing staining and scale formation, add 30 milliliters (approximately 1 ounce) per 1,000 liters of water weekly. Regular maintenance ensures continuous protection against mineral buildup.
Application Steps
Initial Fill:
Add the appropriate amount of Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale directly to the water as the hot tub is filling. Ensure the pump is off during this time to allow the product to work effectively in cold water.
Circulation:
After adding the product, run the circulation pump for at least 30 minutes to ensure even distribution throughout the system.
Weekly Maintenance:
Add the maintenance dose directly to the spa water with the pump operating. Allow the water to circulate for at least 15 minutes to distribute the product evenly.
Safety Precautions
Protective Gear:
Wear gloves and eye protection when handling Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale chemicals.
Ventilation:
Ensure the area is well ventilated during the shock treatment to avoid inhaling fumes.
Storage:
Store Jacuzzi® Stain & Scale products in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
By adhering to these hot tub maintenance guidelines and incorporating regular shock treatments into your hot tub maintenance routine, you can ensure a clean, safe, and enjoyable spa experience every time.
