While everyone’s water may be slightly different (e.g., city vs. well), the following guidelines are what we find work for the majority of residential use cases.

Though it’s not required to add these products to your water, as your plunge filters the water and injects ozone (acting as an oxidizer), these additional products will help maximize the lifespan of your water and reduce the frequency of water changes.

<aside> ❄️ WEATHER WARNING: Please note that damage due to the elements are not covered under the warranty. If your plunge is outdoors during freezing weather, we recommend disconnecting your chiller and bringing it inside during these conditions, as internal components could be damaged from the expansion of water caused by freezing. The same goes for sun, extreme heat, rain, sleet, and all types of weather. Please feel free to reach out at [email protected] if you need additional instructions.

Initial Treatment for New Water

  1. After filling with new water, add the following products:
    1. 15ml of Alkalinity Up / Spa Up; stir water and let circulate for >10 minutes before continuing
    2. 30ml of Oxidizer; stir water and let circulate for >10 minutes before continuing
    3. 10ml of Sanitizer; stir water after and let circulate for >20 minutes before using plunge
  2. After at least 4 hours, test with test strip to confirm:
    1. Alkalinity appears to be in the 80-120 ppm range (if low, add additional 10 mL Alkalinity Up)
    2. Sanitizer appears to be roughly 50 ppm (adding 5 mL will increase by 10 ppm)
