When adding chemicals to pools and hot tubs, the chemicals are usually added all at the same time – a couple times a week. For a period of time after adding chlorine the levels are too high, then for a period of time they are just right and then too low until handful is dumped in again.

Where does this Chlorine go?

Free chlorine in your tub naturally breaks down over time. The greatest loss is due to its reaction to the UV in sunlight. The next greatest loss, also the largest loss in high bather load situations and in spas and pools not exposed to sunlight, is from chlorine oxidizing ammonia and urea from bather sweat (yes, you are perspiring in the hot water!).

So, with traditional management, you must be continually adding more chlorine – especially when you are using your spa more often.

How does a Chlorine Generator Solve this Issue?

Chlorine generators create just he right amount of chlorine when needed. As your water temperature goes down, it will make less and as your water temperature goes up it will make more to compensate for more breakdown.

Our experience has been that since the chlorine is always in this good range, your bathing expectations quickly adjust. Most of our customers have now forgotten just how obnoxious traditional chemicals can be until they visit another spa. Then, wow! They really appreciate the investment they have made.
