What Are Spa Balancers

Spa balancers are chemicals that help maintain the correct balance of spa water. They can adjust pH and alkalinity levels, control scale, and correct mineral imbalances. Proper water balance can prevent skin irritation, equipment damage, and corrosion.

How Spa Balancers Work

Spa balancers are chemicals that are added to spa water to adjust and maintain the water chemistry. Proper water chemistry is essential for a comfortable and safe soaking experience, as well as to protect the spa equipment.

Key components of spa water balance:

1. Total Alkalinity (TA): TA acts as a buffer to pH, preventing drastic fluctuations. The ideal TA range for spas is usually between 80 and 120 parts per million (ppm).

2. pH: pH measures the acidity or alkalinity of the water. The ideal pH range for spas is typically between 7.2 and 7.8.

3. Calcium Hardness (CH): CH refers to the amount of dissolved calcium in the water. The ideal CH range for spas varies depending on the type of spa surface, but generally falls between 175 and 250 ppm.

4. Sanitizer: Sanitizers, such as chlorine or bromine, are essential to kill bacteria and other harmful microorganisms in the spa water.

How spa balancers work:

Spa balancers work by adjusting the levels of TA, pH, and CH in the water. They come in various forms, such as liquids, powders, or granules, and are added to the spa water as needed based on test results.

• Alkalinity Increaser: Raises the TA level if it's too low.

• Alkalinity Decreaser: Lowers the TA level if it's too high.

• pH Increaser: Raises the pH level if it's too low.

• pH Decreaser: Lowers the pH level if it's too high.

• Calcium Hardness Increaser: Raises the CH level if it's too low.

Why spa balancers are important:

• Bather comfort: Properly balanced water feels good on the skin and eyes, and reduces irritation.

• Equipment protection: Balanced water prevents scaling, corrosion, and other damage to the spa equipment.

• Sanitizer effectiveness: Balanced water helps sanitizers work more effectively to kill bacteria and keep the water clean.

It's important to regularly test the spa water and adjust the levels using appropriate balancers to maintain the ideal water chemistry. You can find test strips or kits at pool and spa stores, as well as online retailers.
