Be Vigilant About Spa Water Testing!

Be Vigilant About Spa Water Testing!


At Waters Choice, when we talk about testing your spa water, we often talk about the water's chemical balance, it's pH, alkalinity or even sanitizer levels.

 

Today, we're talking about something regular test strips won't test for and that would be BACTERIA.

Could Your Spa Have Bacteria?

Consequently, BACTERIA and GERMS are a very real thing and we want you to be aware of it. If you suspect bacteria, STOP sitting in your spa and IMMEDIATELY purchase a bacteria test kit from your pool and spa professional!

Testing is simple and will give you very important information.

Because the water in your swim spa or hot tub is so much hotter than a swimming pool, it increases the risk of infection and rashes if you aren't vigilant about testing for contaminants.

Bather Load Makes a Difference

**Remember, the higher the bather load, the faster disinfectant levels will dissipate. Higher bather load means that if you have more than 2 people in your spa daily, we recommend using additional enzymes.
