Are you having problems with your Lay-Z-Spa water? If so, check out the symptom, cause and remedy in the table below.
| Symptom | Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| Green / Cloudy Water / Slippery Sides | Algae | Shock dose with chlorine and add Algaecide if the issue persists. |
| Too much chlorine | Overdose | Allow time to naturally dissipate or partially empty water and fill with new. |
| pH hard to control | Alkalinity low | Use TA Plus to increase the Total Alkalinity |
| Can't maintain chlorine levels | Either due to excess contamination or neglect or improperly balanced pH and Total Alkalinity |
|
| Cloudy water | Poor chemical control or inadequate filtration or possible contamination | Click here for a full guide. |
| Rough pool sides / edges | Scale formation due to high calcium levels in water |
|
| No colour change on test strip dip test | Too high chlorine leading to bleaching of indicator pads (over 15ppm chlorine) | Check the expiry date on ClearWater Dip Test Strips. Wait for chlorine level to drop and re-test. |
| Foaming | Detergent present from incorrect cleaning products or excessive algaecide use | Use Clearwater Foam Remover. Shower before using the hot tub and avoid washing swimwear in detergents. |
