Product Description

Spa Alkalinity Increaser

RAISES ALKALINITY TO IDEAL LEVELS! Balanced water chemistry is the first, most important step to clean, sparkling water. Raising alkalinity to the "safe zone" of 80 to 150 ppm makes your pH easier to keep in line and makes your sanitizer work more effectively. Use Spa Alkalinity Up to stop the eye irritation and corrosion that can result when your alkalinity drops below 80 ppm.

*Caution: Do not add more than 10 lbs. per 10,000 gallons of water at one time. If the pool needs more than this, add the 10 lbs./10,000 gallons amount then retest 12 hours later. After testing, you can make the necessary adjustments. If the alkalinity is 50 ppm or lower, test for the presence of metals in the water before adjusting the alkalinity.
