Easy Water Care With Your Hot Tub

All hot tubs require some attention and involvement when it comes to water chemistry and having access to clean, healthy water.

Who doesn’t want to have sparkling, clear water whenever you’re ready for a soak?

There are three important things when it comes to your hot tub water: filtration, circulation and balancing. There is also a simple ‘add on’ to your hot tub that can help with water chemistry and balance and that is an Ozone System.

The Ozone System operates continuously to mix highly concentrated ozone with the water as it travels through a contact chamber on its way back to the hot tub water. The organic contaminants are instantly oxidized, helping to keep the water clean and fresh.

There are 3 different types of ozone generators used in hot tubs:

1. Ultraviolet (U.V.)

Minimal Maintenance – This lamp must be replaced by a technician and will require a service call. This generator will need to be replaced every 2 – 3 years

2. Chip-type Corona Discharge

Along with the U.V generator, the Chip-type will also need to be replaced or cleaned every 2 – 3 years as the ozone output diminished. The ozone output from the Chip- type unit is typically around 220- 225 parts per million (ppm)

3. Cell- type Corona Discharge

Cell – type has 2 major advantages over the other generators. This generator requires little maintenance and will end up saving the hot tub owner money in the long run. The Cell-type output is 650- 750 ppm, resulting in greater effectiveness – This means fresh, sparkling clear water with less effort and sanitizer.

Now that you know how Ozone can help sanitize your water for a minimal investment – choose which system you want added to your hot tub and start soaking in sparkling water today!
