Here are several methods to lower bromine levels in your hot tub:
- Evaporation:
- Leave the hot tub cover off for extended periods.
- Run the jets to increase water surface area and accelerate evaporation.
- Note: This is the slowest method.
- Dilution:
- Partially drain the hot tub.
- Refill with fresh water.
- Recirculate the water thoroughly.
- Note: This is a faster method than evaporation.
- Bromine Neutralizer:
- Use a product specifically designed to neutralize bromine.
- Caution: Follow the product instructions carefully.
- Note: This is the quickest method, but may require additional water treatment steps afterward.
Important Considerations:
- Test Your Water: Always test your water regularly to monitor bromine levels.
- Safety: If bromine levels are very high, avoid using the hot tub until they are reduced. High bromine levels can irritate skin and eyes.
- Consult a Professional: If you are unsure about how to lower bromine levels or have concerns about water chemistry, consult a pool and spa professional.
