Relax Spa Hot Tub Small Chlorine Tablets

Slow-dissolving chlorine tablets are a popular method of sanitising spa water. By using these tablets as your spa sanitiser you will be ‘trickle-feeding’ chlorine into your hot tub over a period of days. Your hot tub must be chlorinated at all times. The ideal chlorine level is between 3 parts per million (ppm) and 5ppm.

Test the chlorine level in your hot tub daily and immediatley before use. Check your Floating Dispenser at least every 3 days and replenish before tablets are fully dissolved. Typically, these tablets will erode and dissolve slowly over 5 to 7 days depending on your hot tub water temperature and water flow.

FAQs

How many tablets do I put in my dispenser?

Our floating dispenser has a full capacity of about 7 small 20g tablets however we recommend keeping the dispenser topped up with with 3 or 4 tablets for pools and 1 or 2 for hot tubs. 

Are these better than granules? 

This all comes down to preference. Granules arguably give you a bit more control as you can add more/boost easily but tablets slowly dissolve over a period of time so give you an option that can require a bit less attention, however it is worth noting that hot tubs and swimming pools that run on tablets may still need a shock from time to time.

Will these tablets affect my PH? 

Trichlor tablets by nature are acidic so they lower PH in your pool or hot tub over a period of time.
