pH Maintenance Guide for Hot Tubs & Swim Spas

- Ideal pH range: 7.2 – 7.8
2. How to Adjust pH Levels
If your pH is too high (above 7.8):
- Lower it with a pH reducer (e.g., sodium bisulfate or muriatic acid).
If your pH is too low (below 7.2):
- Raise it with a pH increaser (e.g., sodium carbonate/soda ash).

Tip: Adjust in small increments and allow 30-60 minutes before retesting.

- 24 oz of 3% hydrogen peroxide
- 12 oz of 6% hydrogen peroxide
- 6 oz of 12% hydrogen peroxide hydrogen peroxide per 400 gallons of water.
- after heavy use to keep water clear faster.
