1. Start with a clean tub, and new or clean filter cartridge(s). (Use Spa System Flush when transitioning from any previous sanitizer.) 2. Fill spa with fresh water and operate circulating pump. 3. Test water with Bromine 4-in-1 test strips; adjust where necessary. 4. Add Natural Clarifier at the rate of 1 oz./500 gallons, weekly. 5. Add Metal Free stain/metal preventer per label instructions. 6. Shock water weekly with Oxy-Spa non-chlorine MPS shock at the rate of 1 ½ - 2 oz. per 500 gallons. (1 ½ tablespoons = approx. 2 oz.) 7. Add Granular Bromide Booster to establish an immediate bromide reserve or bank. 8. Add 3 - 4 Bromine Tablets to Float (brominator). Hold brominator underwater to remove air bubbles, then allow to float to surface. Maintain bromine at 3 - 5 ppm. Adjust release opening, more or less, as experience dictates over time. Add tablets as depleted. 9. Allow water to circulate to equilibrate spa chemicals for an hour or two (or overnight) then retest with test strips; readjust water balance if necessary. 10. Place and keep ZorbO in spa to absorb oil scum, replace every 3 - 6 months. NOTE: Follow instructions on each bottle according to your spa’s capacity guidelines. 2. Fill Spa & Circulate Water 3.
