ACTI PH Minus 7KG £22.00
ACTI PH Minus 7KG.
Genuine ACTI product.
pH Minus Powder. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 and measures the acidity or alkalinity of the water. A pH of less than 7 means the water is acidic, a reading above 7 means the water is alkaline and a pH of 7 is neutral. Ideally the pH for swimming pools is between 7.2 and 7.6. Having the water slightly alkaline means that the pool is more comfortable for swimmers and the equipment is protected from the corrosive water. The effects of a high pH level (too alkaline) means the water can become cloudy, swimmers skin can become dry, chlorine becomes less effective and scale can form.

ACTI pH plus 5KG £20.00
ACTI pH plus 5KG
Genuine ACTI product
“Soda ash,” commonly referred to as pH Plus, is an essential chemical used to raise and balance the pH levels in swimming pool and hot tub water. This product has several key functions and benefits for water maintenance:
Key Features:
1. pH Adjustment: pH Plus, or soda ash, is employed to increase the pH level in pool and hot tub water. This is important because the pH of the water can fluctuate due to various factors, including chemical treatment and bather load.
Benefits of Using pH Plus (Soda Ash):
1. Water Clarity: Adjusting the pH levels with pH Plus contributes to improved water clarity. Maintaining the right pH range helps prevent cloudiness and ensures the water remains sparkling and clear.
2. Equipment Protection: Proper pH balance is crucial to protect the equipment and components of the pool or hot tub. Maintaining the pH within the recommended range helps prevent corrosion and extends the lifespan of pool and spa equipment.
3. Ideal pH Range: The recommended pH range for swimming pool and hot tub water is typically between 7.2 and 7.6. This range ensures the comfort of swimmers and efficient use of water treatment chemicals.
Balancing pH Levels:
- If the pH level falls below 7.2, it’s essential to use pH Plus to raise it within the ideal range.
- Conversely, if the pH level rises above 7.6, pH Minus is used to lower it to the desired range.
By using pH Plus, also known as soda ash, as part of your pool and hot tub maintenance routine, you can ensure that the water remains clear, comfortable, and safe for swimmers while protecting the equipment from potential damage caused by imbalanced pH levels. Proper pH management is a critical aspect of water chemistry control and maintenance in pools and hot tubs.

Acti Spa Alkalinity Increaser 1KG £14.00
Acti Spa Alkalinity Increaser 1KG
Genuine ACTI product
Low total alkalinity (TA) may cause spa water to be corrosive and the pH level difficult to maintain. Total alkalinity should be maintained between 80 – 150 mg/l (ppm). Test the total alkalinity level of spa water and if it is below 80mg/l (ppm), use Alkalinity increase to increase the level.
Application instructions:
Pre dissolve the product in a clean plastic container at a maximum rate of 10g of product per 0.2 gallons (1 lt) of clean water. Stir well to ensure product is fully dissolved. Add the resulting solution to the spa whilst the pump(s) are turned on, preferably near the water inlets to aid distribution. The total amount of alkalinity increaser can be applied in one application.

ACTI spa Hot Tub pH minus 1.5KG £16.00
ACTI spa Hot Tub pH minus 1.5KG
Genuine ACTI product
The Acti Spa pH Minus is a product specifically formulated to reduce the pH levels in water, particularly in spas, hot tubs, and pools. It contains Sodium Hydrogen Sulphate, which is an effective pH-lowering compound. Here’s a description of the product and its primary purpose:
Key Features:
1. pH Reduction: The primary function of Acti Spa pH Minus is to lower the pH level of the water in your spa, hot tub, or pool. It helps make the water more acidic by reducing the pH, which is important for maintaining bather comfort and the functionality of various equipment components.
2. Ideal pH Range: The recommended pH range for spas, hot tubs, and pools typically falls between 7.2 and 7.6. This range is chosen to ensure the comfort of bathers and to protect the equipment, such as pump seals, jet seals, and heater seals. Proper pH balance helps prevent equipment corrosion and extends their lifespan.
3. Testing and Application: To use Acti Spa pH Minus, you can start by testing the water’s pH level with a test strip or pH tester. If the pH is too high (above the recommended range), you can gently sprinkle a small amount of this product into the water and allow it to dissolve. After waiting for about 30 minutes, retest the water to ensure that the desired pH level has been achieved.

ACTI Spa Hot Tub pH Plus 1KG £13.00
ACTI Spa Hot Tub pH Plus 1KG
Genuine ACTI product
ActiSpa Hot Tub pH Plus is a specially formulated product designed to address the pH balance of your hot tub’s water. This product plays a crucial role in ensuring a comfortable and safe hot tub experience while also maintaining water quality.
Key Features:
- pH Adjustment: ActiSpa Hot Tub pH Plus is specifically designed to increase the pH level of the water in your hot tub. This is important because the pH of the water can naturally shift over time and with regular use.
Benefits of Using ActiSpa Hot Tub pH Plus:
1. Bather Comfort: Maintaining the correct pH level is essential for the comfort of hot tub users. Water that is too acidic or too alkaline can cause skin and eye irritation, making the hot tub experience less enjoyable.
2. Water Quality: Proper pH balance is fundamental for maintaining water quality. It helps prevent potential issues such as corrosion of hot tub components, scaling on surfaces, and the proliferation of bacteria and algae in the water.
3. Effective Sanitisation: Maintaining the ideal pH level is crucial for the effectiveness of water treatment chemicals, such as chlorine or bromine. These chemicals work most efficiently within a specific pH range to effectively sanitise the water and maintain its clarity.
4. Equipment Protection: Keeping the pH within the recommended range is also essential for safeguarding the hot tub’s equipment and components. When the pH is too low (acidic) or too high (alkaline), it can lead to damage and reduced equipment lifespan.
Using ActiSpa Hot Tub pH Plus provides a convenient and reliable solution for adjusting and increasing the pH level in your hot tub water. This product ensures that your hot tub water remains comfortable, safe, and of the highest quality, enhancing the overall hot tub experience for you and your guests. Proper pH management is a fundamental aspect of hot tub maintenance and water chemistry control, and ActiSpa Hot Tub pH Plus makes this task simple and effective.

Relax Spa Hot Tub pH Plus 500g £8.00
Relax Spa Hot Tub pH Plus 500g
Genuine Relax Spa product
Relax pH Plus, available in a 1kg container, is a product designed to help maintain the pH levels in your hot tub or spa water. Here’s how it works and why pH balance is crucial for spa water maintenance:
1. Rapid Dissolving Granules: Relax pH Plus comes in the form of granules that dissolve quickly in water. This makes it convenient for adjusting the pH level in your hot tub effectively.
2. pH Importance for Chlorine and Bromine: The pH level of your spa or hot tub water is critical for the effectiveness of sanitizers, such as chlorine or bromine. The ideal pH range for spa water typically falls between 7.2 and 7.6. This pH range is essential to create an environment in which chlorine or bromine can function optimally to kill and neutralize unwanted contaminants and pollutants in the water.
Maintaining the proper pH level in your hot tub is essential for several reasons:
- Sanitizer Effectiveness: Chlorine or bromine needs the correct pH environment to work efficiently. If the pH level is too high or too low, the effectiveness of the sanitizer is compromised, and it may not adequately kill or control bacteria and other contaminants.
- Comfort and Safety: Proper pH levels contribute to the comfort and safety of spa users. Water that is too acidic (low pH) or too alkaline (high pH) can cause skin and eye irritation, making the spa experience less enjoyable.
To use Relax pH Plus, you would typically follow the manufacturer’s instructions, which will specify the recommended dosage and steps for application. It’s important to monitor your spa’s pH levels regularly and adjust them as needed to keep the water within the recommended pH range. This will help ensure that your hot tub remains clean, safe, and comfortable for users.
