Nature2 Spa Mineral Sanitizer: Simple Usage Guide

Using a mineral sanitizer system is straightforward. It works by releasing minerals into your spa water to control bacteria and algae, reducing the need for harsh chemicals. Proper initial setup and regular maintenance ensure clear, clean water for a more enjoyable spa experience.

How to Install and Use

  1. Initial Setup: Place the mineral cartridge into the designated holder in your spa's circulation system. Ensure it is properly secured.
  2. First Use: After adding the cartridge, run your spa's jets for at least 20 minutes to allow the minerals to distribute.
  3. Water Balance: Test your water regularly with a spa test strip. Adjust pH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness as needed.
  4. Chemical Levels: While the mineral system reduces chemical needs, you'll still use a small amount of sanitizer (like chlorine or bromine) and an oxidizer.
  5. Cartridge Replacement: Follow the manufacturer's recommendation for cartridge replacement, typically every 4 months.
