Keep Your Hot Tub Safe: Chemical Balance & Maintenance Matter
Enjoying a hot tub should be relaxing, not risky. While ozonator care is critical, it’s just one part of your spa’s overall health. Proper hot tub maintenance includes keeping your chemical levels balanced — and neglecting this can lead to major health issues.
Why Water Chemistry Is So Important
Maintaining the correct levels of pH, alkalinity, sanitizer (chlorine or bromine), and calcium hardness is essential for both your equipment and your health. When water chemistry is off, it creates an ideal environment for harmful pathogens to thrive.
Dangers of Poor Chemical Balance
When hot tubs are not properly cared for, users face a range of preventable health problems:
- Skin Irritation & Rashes: Unbalanced pH can cause burning eyes, itchy skin, and worsened eczema.
- Respiratory Problems: Breathing in vapors from poorly treated water (especially with high chlorine) can trigger asthma-like symptoms.
- Infections: Bacteria like Pseudomonas and Legionella thrive in untreated water.
- Equipment Damage: Scale buildup or corrosion from incorrect chemical levels can lead to costly repairs.
