BioGuard 5-Way test strips are a quick and easy way to test for Total Bromine, Free Chlorine, pH, Total Hardness and Total Alkalinity.
Total Bromine is the sanitizer residual in the water. Maintain a level of 1.0-3.0ppm for residential pools or 2.0-4.0ppm for spas. If too low, add BioGuard brominating products for pools or SpaGuard brominating products for spas
Free Chlorine is the sanitizer residual in the water. Maintain a level of 1.0-4.0ppm for residential pools or 3.0-5.0ppm for spas.If too low, add BioGuard chlorinating products for pools and SpaGuard chlorinating products for spas.
pH should be kept between 7.4 and 7.6 for best results. If too high, add BioGuard Lo N' Slo for pools or SpaGuard Lo N' Slo for spas. If too low, BioGuard Balance Pak 200 for pools and SpaGuard Balance Pak 200 for spas.
Total Alkalinity is a very important measure of the water's ability to resist pH swings. It should be between 125ppm to 150ppm. Total Hardness is the measurement of the amount of dissolved calcium and magnesium in water and should be maintained between 175-275 ppm depending on your pool surface.
BioGuard 5-Way test strips is the most popular test strip used by pool and spa owners nationwide!

SpaGuard Anti Foam (16 oz)
$13.99
Instructions for using SpaGuard Anti Foam:
Add 1 teaspoon of SpaGuard Anti Foam per 200 gallons of hot tub water. For most hot tubs, one or two tablespoons will suffice. Large hot tubs, swim spas, and swimming pools may need a full tablespoon.
Run the circulation pump for several minutes; foam should dissipate right away.

SpaGuard Brominating Concentrate (2 lb)
$27.99
The SpaGuard Brominating Concentrate 2 lb:
One-step, fast-dissolving brominating granules have no chlorine odor
Dual-acting as both a sanitizer and oxidizer, eliminates need for two products
Easy to use, no pre-dissolving needed
Apply directly to water while the pump is running
Killing bacteria is key to spa maintenance
In a spa, sanitizers are added to control the growth of bacteria and algae. The warm water environment of the spa is conducive to growth, making sanitization essential to having a clean spa that is suitable for bathers. Although the chemical reactions that occur to sanitize a spa are the same as in a pool, the reactions in a spa happen at a much faster rate. Chemicals become more reactive and tend to be used up more quickly than in a pool, requiring frequent chemical additions to maintain proper sanitizer residuals. Purchase your SpaGuard Brominating Concentrate 2 lb today and watch the magic work.

SpaGuard Brominating Tablets (1.5 lb)
$33.99
Spend less time with your sanitizer
SpaGuard Brominating Tabs are an easier way to keep your water clean and germ-free. The tablets dissolve slowly over a week or longer. As a result, you won't need to add fresh sanitizer after each hot tub session. Standard 1 1/4" tablets fit most bromine dispensers and floaters.
Bromine kills bacteria, viruses, algae, and other microbes that can cloud your water and make you sick. The durability of bromine is its main selling point. Brom Tabs keep working for days, making them ideal for families that travel or use their hot tubs only occasionally. Also, bromine has less odor and far less bleaching power than chlorine. Your bathing suits and towels will last longer!
How to use SpaGuard brominating tablets
Fill up usage: When you refill fill your hot tub with fresh water, replace all the brom tabs in your floater or dispenser. Add 1oz of shock and 1oz of sodium bromide to establish a safe bromine reserve. If you don't plan to use your tub right away, you can skip the sodium bromide—but please wait 24 hours before anyone enters the hot tub. Really do use a floater or other dispenser. Whole brom tabs will sink to the floor of your tub, where they are unpleasant to step on.
Weekly usage: Keep 2–3 tablets in your dispenser if you have a standard 300 gallon hot tub. For larger 500 gallon tubs, try to keep 3–4 tablets in the dispenser. Swim spa owners should consult their user manual for the correct dosage.
Bromine alone is not an effective sanitizer or shock. Use SpaGuard Spa Shock-Oxidizer to unlock the sanitizing power of SpaGuard Brominating Tabs. Do not mix chlorine with bromine. A strong odor will result.
Test your water weekly with test strips designed for bromine.
Bromine is a serious, germ-killing chemical. Store it out of reach of young children and pets.

SpaGuard
SpaGuard Chlorinating Concentrate (5 lb)
$67.99
Go big with five pounds of chlorine sanitizer.
SpaGuard Chlorinating Concentrate kills germs quickly to keep your hot tub water safe, clean, and clear. The chlorine counteracts bacteria, viruses, algae, and microbes that breed in warm water.
Hot tub water can be clear, it can be balanced, it can be hot—but until it is sanitized, it isn't ready for your family. Test your water twice a week and add SpaGuard chlorine as needed to keep germs at bay. Chlorine is a powerful, but temporary, sanitizer. After two or three days in water, up to half the available chlorine in your tub can become inactive or can evaporate away. If you ever over-chlorinate your hot tub, you can often set things right simply by turning on the bubbles for 30 minutes to help this natural evaporation.
Regular usage: Add one ounce (1oz) of SpaGuard Chlorine to your hot tub for every 500 gallons of water, then test your water to achieve 2–3 parts per million (ppm) available chlorine.
Shock usage: Add two ounces (2oz) of SpaGuard Chlorine to your hot tub after all bathers have left the spa. Circulate the water a full 15 minutes. Test and adjust spa water prior to the next bathing session. Alternately, you may choose to use a non-chlorine oxidizer as a shock treatment to burn away organic residue.
Chlorine is a serious chemical, so it should be stored safely away from children, domestic animals, and public watersheds. Please read the label for full usage and safety information.
If you find chlorine drys out your hair, try Purf Pool & Surf Shampoo.

SpaGuard
SpaGuard Soft Soak® TRIO® System
$121.99
Three months of simple, soft, clear spa water treatment
The recommended spa treatment cycle is to drain and refill your tub at least once every three months. Changing it less often makes it more challenging to keep the water chemistry in balance, resulting in more time, effort and expense on your part. The Soft Soak® TRIO® system is designed to fit this cycle so you’ll know exactly when to perform this important task.
TRIO is SIMPLE
No measuring, no chemistry lessons – just open, pour and enjoy. If you’re like most people, you own a spa that holds about 275-500 gallons of water. The Soft Soak TRIO system was made for spas like these; with pre-measured packets that eliminate the guesswork and let you know exactly when to add them. Three products, three months of stress-free enjoyment.
TRIO is SOFT
A proprietary blend of softening agents creates a noticeably better experience. The average spa user spends 15-30 minutes in the spa per soak. Make that time more enjoyable by soaking in water with elevated softness. The Soft Soak TRIO system creates a base level at fresh fill and then boosts the softness factor every week. Most TRIO users found the water softness to be "extremely satisfying" when surveyed.
TRIO is CLEAR
It removes major contaminants that make water cloudy so all you’ll see is your toes. The weekly portion of the Soft Soak TRIO system removes the unseen, common contaminants that accumulate during hot tub use so your water stays sparkling clear and odor-free. The last step ensures equipment also remains clean so TRIO can help prevent conditions that might diminish your enjoyment of the spa.
PROTECT the FAMILY
Sanitizing is another big part of spa care and Soft Soak has solutions for you. You can complement the Soft Soak TRIO system with either of our Soft Soak sanitizers. TRIO is compatible with most systems, including chlorine, bromine, salt, mineral, ozone and UV.

SpaGuard
SpaGuard Spa Shock-Oxidizer (Buffered Non-Chlorine) (35 oz)
$28.99
Burn away organic compounds with SpaGuard Shock
SpaGuard Spa Shock-Oxidizer eliminates soluble organic compounds and irritants in spa water. It is buffered to prevent "pH bounce." Regular use helps maintain clear spa water. SpaGuard Shock Oxidizer is not a sanitizer or algicide. To sanitize your hot tub or swim spa, you must still use chlorine, bromine, or minerals. It does not replace the need for regular applications of chemical sanitizers.
Shock-Oxidizer restores "spent" sanitizer chloramines, so shocking your hot tub can also cut down on heavy chlorine odor.
Directions for using oxidizer
Add one ounce per 300 gallons of your hot tub every week.
If the spa is used daily, add one ounce per 300 gallons twice per week.
Test your water regularly and add sanitizer as indicated by your test strips.
SpaGuard
SpaGuard Stain & Scale Control (32 oz)
$28.99
What is it?
Scale formation is created when there is an oversaturation of minerals, particularly calcium, in the spa water and water conditions do not allow them to remain dissolved or soluble. Those conditions may be high calcium hardness, high water temperatures and/or high pH. The minerals drop out of solution and rough, sandpaper-like deposits attach to spa surfaces, circulation and filtration systems and plug heaters. Conversely, low levels of calcium make the water more aggressive and can lead to corrosion of equipment and spa surface staining.
To remove scale:
Add Stain & Scale Control to gradually remove scale from surfaces
Use a brush and Off The Wall® Surface Cleaner to quickly clean surfaces
Test water to determine current chemistry conditions
Add pH Decreaser if pH is high
To prevent scale:
Add Stain & Scale Control to your weekly maintenance routine to reduce contaminant levels
