Chlorine-free and organic water treatment products for your spa or swim spa
SpaBalancer is an innovation that allows you to keep your spa water clear, clean, and odorless - using a completely biological process without the use of chlorine.
SpaBalancer Ultrashock is a cleaning agent based on sodium hypochlorite. It is five times more powerful than chlorine. SpaBalancer Ultrashock effectively eliminates germs, bacteria, and legionella.
Disinfecting water with usual disinfectants such as chlorine or bromine initially neutralizes the harmfulness of bacteria. However, over time, an increase in legionella and other bacteria is observed. This is due to what is called biofilm. Biofilm acts as a "resting and incubating place" for bacteria, protecting them from disinfectants.
SpaBalancer Ultrashock is the only disinfectant that penetrates the biofilm, destroys the polysaccharides (complex sugars) present, thus eliminating the biofilm.
Instructions:
Pour 75 ml of SpaBalancer UltraShock into 1000 liters of water. Operate the pumps when adding SpaBalancer to ensure proper mixing. It is important to let SpaBalancer Ultrashock act for at least 8 hours. (Bacteria and impurities may remain if the product acts for less than 8 hours).
You can check the concentration of SpaBalancer Ultrashock with SpaBalancer Test Strips. After 8 hours, the test strips should still show a concentration of at least 1 ppm. If there is no more SpaBalancer Ultrashock in the water before the eight hours have elapsed, repeat the shock treatment. Important: these values are based on a water temperature of 37 degrees Celsius. SpaBalancer Ultrashock dissolves more slowly when the water is colder.
If after the second application, SpaBalancer still dissolves too quickly, this may indicate the presence of many impurities and a significant amount of biofilm in the pipes. The maximum doses are indicated here. (Maximum 200 ml for 1,000 liters of water.)
How to measure SpaBalancer Ultrashock?
You can measure the content of SpaBalancer Ultrashock with SpaBalancer Test Strips.
Can you use the spa when SpaBalancer Ultrashock is present in the water?
The concentration of SpaBalancer Ultrashock should not exceed 5 ppm. You can then use the spa. Skin irritations may occur with higher concentrations.
Using SpaBalancer Ultrashock as an additional cleaner for "problematic" spas
"Problematic" spas are those with insufficient filtration, e.g., inflatable spas or wooden spas (hot tubs). For SpaBalancer to be effective, sufficient filtration (at least 6 hours a day) and clean filters are required. With some spas, it is not possible to adjust the filtration time - which can lead to greasy deposits and cloudy water. In these cases, occasional shock treatment may be necessary.
Once the shock treatment is successful, wait until there is no more SpaBalancer Ultrashock in the water. Then add the usual amount of SpaBalancer to the water (40 ml to 75 ml).
You can also pour between 20 ml and 40 ml of SpaBalancer Ultrashock into the water after each use. The amount depends on the number of people using the spa. Additionally, add about 50 ml to 75 ml of SpaBalancer once a week. By doing so, you benefit from the advantages of both systems: SpaBalancer Ultrashock is a fast-acting oxidation product that dissolves quickly, while SpaBalancer is a slow and continuous water maintenance and cleaning product that preserves the skin.
