All about me

This Jacuzzi® Alkalinity Increaser raises the Total Alkalinity levels in your hot tub or spa and works alongside the pH and helps to protect it. Low Total Alkalinity (below 80mg/l) can cause your water to become corrosive and stain your hot tub or spa surfaces. Plus, it can cause pH levels to fluctuate, which can cause discomfort to your skin.

In soft water areas, where pH levels are lower, using an alkalinity increaser first helps raise the pH level. Experience the Jacuzzi® difference for yourself.

How to use

Use daily. A Total Alkalinity level between 80-120mg/l (ppm) must be maintained in your hot tub/spa at all times. The addition of your Alkalinity Increaser will depend upon usage*.

*We advise to use test strips to test sanitiser levels, pH levels and Total Alkalinity (TA).

FAQs

How do I test TA levels in my hot tub?

We suggest using dip test strips to test the pH level, total alkalinity and sanitiser levels. They’re easy to use and provide quick and accurate readings, so you can make the proper chemical adjustments if required.

How long do I have to wait after using total alkalinity in my hot tub?

We recommend waiting at least 2 hours after using TA before using your hot tub.
