Which Iluka Product Do You Need?
Key Takeaways
Iluka is a natural spa care system built around ocean-sourced minerals — Magnesium, Potassium, Ocean Trace Elements and Chitosan derived from crustacean shells. ILUKA is an Aboriginal word meaning "near the sea", and the range is designed to turn a regular soak into something genuinely therapeutic. Developed by Lo-Chlor, it is the only spa system built entirely around what nature already provides.

The Iluka Product Range
Every product in the range has a specific role. Here is what each one does and when to use it.
STEP 1 — WEEKLY
Purify
SDIC and Borax sanitiser. The sanitation foundation of the Iluka system. Kills bacteria and pathogens while Borax buffers pH and softens the feel of the water. Dose 6g per 1,000L weekly.
STEP 2 — WEEKLY
Eliminate
Non-chlorine oxidiser. Destroys body oils, sweat and organic residue the sanitiser cannot break down. Works in 15 minutes so your spa is ready to use again quickly. Dose weekly and after heavy use.
STEP 3 — WEEKLY
Seachange
Natural Chitosan clarifier sourced from crustacean shells. Binds oils and body fats into particles the filter can collect. Clears water haze without synthetic chemistry. 50ml per 1,000L weekly.
STEP 4 — WEEKLY
Bliss
Magnesium, Potassium and Ocean Trace Elements. Softens spa water and adds a genuine therapeutic quality — muscle relaxation, skin nourishment, a soak that feels different. 50ml per 1,000L weekly.
STEP 5 — MONTHLY
Brilliance
Monthly water conditioner and surface protector. Maintains water quality between weekly treatments, protects pipework and keeps the water smelling fresh. 250ml per 1,000L monthly.
Balancing Products
Test your water weekly. Add balancing products only when your test strips indicate they are needed — not on a fixed schedule.
BALANCING
Elevate
Raises total alkalinity and pH. Restores the buffer that stops pH swinging unpredictably between doses. Pre-dissolve before adding. Target 125 to 150 ppm total alkalinity.
BALANCING
Descend
Lowers pH and total alkalinity. Heated spa water trends alkaline over time — Descend brings it back to the 7.2 to 7.6 target range. Apply in stages, maximum 25g per 1,000L per dose.
BALANCING
Hardup
Raises calcium hardness. Low-hardness water draws minerals from spa surfaces, heater elements and equipment seals. Protects your investment. Target 175 to 275 ppm depending on surface type.
Maintenance Products
FILTER CARE
Klenz
Spray-on, hose-off cartridge filter cleaner. No soaking required. Removes body fats, calcium scale and debris in minutes. Clean every 4 to 6 uses to keep filtration working at full capacity.
PLUMBING
Purge
Concentrated spa pipe cleaner. Removes biofilm, body fats and calcium from internal pipework before every water change. Essential for new spa setup and recommended at every drain.
AS NEEDED
Sudsaway
Fast-acting foam remover. Body products and skin oils lower water surface tension and the jets do the rest. Apply a small amount directly to the foam. Use as needed, not regularly.
