Alkalinity & pH Up 1 lb (LCH-50-4030)
Prevent corrosion and equipment damage by raising low pH and total alkalinity with LIFE Alkalinity & pH Up. This essential water balancer protects your hot tub shell, heater, and plumbing while creating a more comfortable soaking environment.
Protect Your Hot Tub from Low pH Damage
Acidic water with low pH and alkalinity can eat away at metal components, etch acrylic surfaces, and cause skin irritation for bathers. LIFE Alkalinity & pH Up is a simple granular treatment that raises both pH and total alkalinity, safeguarding your investment and ensuring a comfortable soak every time.
Why Maintaining Proper pH Matters
- Prevents corrosion of heater elements, pump seals, and metal fittings
- Protects the acrylic shell and jet components from etching
- Ensures sanitizers work at peak efficiency for cleaner water
- Reduces skin and eye irritation caused by acidic conditions
Dosage and Application
Test your spa water before each use. If the pH reads below 7.2 or total alkalinity is under 80 ppm, add LIFE Alkalinity & pH Up. Sprinkle the granules directly into the water while the circulation pump is running. Start with a small dose, wait 15 minutes, and retest. Gradually add more if needed until the pH reads between 7.2 and 7.6 and alkalinity falls in the 80 to 120 ppm range. Avoid adding large quantities at once to prevent overshooting your target levels.
