Chlorine Granules | 1KG

Guidance; How much chlorine to add:
A heaped teaspoon holds approximately 8g of chlorine granules. As a general guide, to increase a 1500L hot tub from 0ppm to 5ppm you will need to add at least 12g of Chlorine Granules. So approximately one and a half teaspoons should be enough.

How to add to your hot tub:
Add your chlorine granules in stages (8-12g) into 10 litres of freshwater using a clean plastic container and mix carefully. Slowly pour the mixed solution into your hot tub water near to the return inlets, then thoroughly rinse out the container.

Dosage
Heavily used hot tubs, maintained at high temperatures, may require more frequent dosing with Chlorine. Individual requirements may vary, test using a poolside test kit and adjust the dose rate as necessary to maintain a chlorine level of 1-3 ppm or mg/litre.

pH Control
To keep your hot tub at the optimum pH level, the water should be maintained at a pH level of around 7.4 and between 7.2 and 7.8 at all times. If the hot tub is too alkaline (8.0+) the efficiency of the chlorine is around 20%. If the pH level is too high you could damage your hot tub and swimsuit, it is vital to check the pH level of your hot tub before use using a simple pH testing strip.

IF INHALED: Place the person into the fresh air and keep them comfortable, monitor their breathing. Call A&E or your doctor if you feel unwell. If eye irritation persists, seek medical advice immediately. If chlorine comes into contact with acid, it will give off a toxic gas. Wear safety goggles when mixing chlorine and water to avoid any splashes into the eye area.
