Spa BROMINE
Bromine is slightly easier to use and less smelly than chlorine.
Bromine behaves in a very similar way to chlorine, but it
forms its own equivalent of chloramines called bromamines. Bromamines do not
smell and they are nowhere near as irritating to the skin and eyes as
chloramines. Also they are actually a disinfectant in their own right, so
they enhance the bacteria killing capability of the bromine. Bromine is also
more tolerant of high pH and more stable at high spa water temperatures.
To use bromine as the sole sanitizer in your
spa adjust and maintain the pH within the range 7.2-7.6 and
maintain an active bromine level of 3-5 ppm.
With all hot tub disinfection systems
you should also use a
shock
once a week.
more about Bromine
To
minimise your use of Bromine, maintain a level of only 1-2
ppm in conjunction with the all natural
monthly
spa treatment.
BROMINE TABLETS
If you are using
Bromine Tablets without
eco one enzyme based water care it is recommended that you first
establish establish an initial bromide reserve of around 30ppm
using Leisure Time Sodium Bromide or Bromine Granules.
This will kick-start the disinfection process and reduce
chemical odour from the tablets. You
should use Bromine Tablets only either in your spa's in-built
chemical dispenser or in a
floating dispenser.
Do not place bromine tablets directly into a skimmer
basket or elsewhere in your tub.

Splash Spas own brand chemicals are a high quality
range of hot tub chemicals manufactured exclusively for
us by the UK's leading spa chemicals manufacturer.
These low dusting
Bromine Tablets are ideal for
routine dosing of your spa or for use with
eco one enzyme based water care.
Note that all bromine tablets dissolve slowly at a
rate dependent of the temperature of the water and the
water flow rate over the tablets. If using bromine
tablets without eco one it may be necessary to apply an
initial shock dose of Bromine Granules to establish a
bromine residual in the spa water more quickly.

reserve prior to using Bromine Tablets. This will
kick-start the disinfection process and reduce chemical
odour from the tablets.

Bromine granules dissolve rapidly in hot tub water to produce free bromine which kills bacteria and other potentially harmful organisms.
Bromine granules may either be used on their own to maintain a
bromine residual, or as an initial shock dose when using bromine tablets to
sanitize your hot tub water. When using bromine granules alone to sanitize spa water it is important
to maintain the pH of the water within the correct range and also to maintain
the correct residual level of free bromine in the water at all times.
