Converting and existing spa from Bromine to Spa Poppit

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

  • no chemical odours
  • pleasant spa environment
  • does not contain bromine
  • suitable for asthmatics & those with chlorine sensitivity
  • simple to convert
  • just follow these easy steps

When converting from other products, it is recommended to clean the spa!


Instructions:

1. Remove filter cartridge & clean with Poppit Filter Cleaner Soak formulation, as per label instructions.  Do not reinstall filter cartridge at this point. (Just hosing cartridge alone will not clean the filter) It is important to rinse the filter cartidges thoroughly after soaking.

Do not replace filter cartridge at this point.

2.  Add 50ml of Poppit Pipe Degreaser per 1000 lt of spa water.

3. Turn blowers, jets & filter on & run for approx. 30 – 60 mins (to flush the spa pipes clean), after turning pump & jets off, dump water completely.

Caution: if spa is in-ground, dump only ¾ of the spa water (that is, always leave ¼ of the water in the bottom of the spa) this will prevent the spa from popping out of the ground.

4. Reinstall filter cartridge to spa.

5. Wearing rubber gloves, put some Spa Pipe Degreaser on a damp cloth and wipe the inside shell  of the spa and the underside of the spa cover and, wipe under and around head covers and jets.  Rinse spa.

6. When spa is clean and totally drained, refill spa with fresh water.

7. To clear water of any organic or inorganic matter, add Quick Fix at the rate of 60grs per 1000 litre of spa water.

8. Run filter for 4 hours with cover off.

9. Check pH, alkalinity & calcium levels using Insta Test Strips (ph should be 7.2 – 7.6 & alkalinity should be around 80-120ppm,) if readings are low, use Poppit Water Balance to correct levels. If pH readings are high use Poppit pH Reducer. Calcium levels should be 100 ppm, if low these can be increased using Poppit Spa Cal Hardener.

10. Heat spa water to desired temperature (generally between 26 – 36  degrees C.)

11. Add Spa Poppits – spa sanitiser conditioner, clarifier and bactericide at the rate of 1 litre per 1000 litres of water.



Your spa is now ready for your enjoyment.

*Remember to run filter for approximately 4 hour per day and after each use.
