Wells usually balanced contain harder water than urban water supplies. Mineral and metal im- water may balances in your water can shorten the life of the equipment in your spa.

WATER PURITY & FILTRATION Keeping the water clean – chemical sanitizers One of the bigger reasons that people require service on their spa is because they haven’t followed a chemical application regiment. Water can accumulate impurities that can worsen the performance or even damage the filtration system if chemicals are not applied on a regular basis.
Spa Chemistry 101 At first, trying to understand spa chemistry can seem like a daunt- The pH scale ing task to say the least. We intend on helping you understand spa goes from 0 to 14, with chemicals so that you can maintain the health of your spa at the best level possible.

bromine, which rapidly forms the active sanitizer - hypobromous acid - in spa water. Upon reaction with bacteria and other spa contaminants, hy- pobromous acid is reduced back to bromide ion, ready to be activated again by the next dose of potassium monopersulfate. Potassium monop- ersulfate begins to produce bromine immediately and continues to do so for several hours, providing sufficient time for oxidation of bather waste and other organic contamination such as ammonia and nitrogen.

CHLORINATION – To add chlorine to your spa on a regular basis to disin- fect and oxidize your spa water.

Ozone Generator Divine Hot Tubs™ has an Ozonator made to our specifications. Ozonators supply the spa water with ozone, which is an extremely effective oxidant that will kill bacteria and microorganisms. The Ozonator will distribute ozone into your spa automatically during the filter cycles and will keep your spa and water sparkling clean.

JETS Types of Jets Your Divine Hot Tubs™ spa comes with different types of jets and jet configurations. Each type of jet has a specific purpose and operates differently than the others. All jets with the exception of the fixed jets in the foot well by the light are adjustable and can be turned on or off.
Jet, air and waterfall controls Diverter Valves This valve, which is located at water line, is used to divert the power from the pump to one of the “Hot Seats” or the other. The valve has a 180° range from one side to the other.
Spa Skirt Divine Hot Tubs™ uses a weather-resistant and impact-resistant material for their ex- terior cabinetry. This material offers the beautiful look of tongue and groove wood cabinetry and comes pre-stained in the color selections provided by Divine Hot Tubs™.
Spa Cover If you purchased a cover with your spa, you will want to be sure to keep it clean and protected. Spa covers exposed to the outdoors take a beating from the elements. Use a vinyl protectant to discourage deterioration caused by the UV rays from the sun.
DRAINING THE SPA We recommend that you drain and clean your spa no less than 3 or 4 times per year, depending on how frequently you use it and how well you maintain your water. In most cases this simple process will only take about an hour to accomplish.
