How to take care of a spa

If you have taken the plunge and finally decided to get yourself a spa, you need to realize that just like making an impromptu puppy purchase; a spa is something that you need to take care of. Well, at least it won’t use your house as a toilet, so perhaps it’s less like a puppy.

Buying a spa requires spa maintenance and sometimes a lot of it. It can sometimes feel like a full time job to keep the algae at bay and the Ph levels correct. But as long as you know what needs to be done, it’s fairly easy to maintain your spa. First off, find a pool supply store in your area and make friends with one of the employees, because you are bound to have about a million questions. But here are some of the basics.

The first things you will need are test strips. Test strips, if you have them you really have no excuse not using them. You really can’t tell what your spa needs just by looking at it. It may look perfectly fine, but it may need a ton of work. Make sure you have enough sanitizer in your spa and that ph levels are correct. All you have to do with a test strip is dip it in the water and compare colors to a color chart that is provided.

You have to sanitize as well to keep algae away! You don’t want you and your guests getting into a pool of viruses now do you? Didn’t think so. The optimal spa ph should be around 7.5. That is a neutral ph.
