Swim Spa and Hot Tub Metal Out - 1 Quart

Introducing The Swim Spa and Hot Tub Metal Out, the ultimate solution for preventing and removing mineral stains in your spa or hot tub. Say goodbye to unsightly iron, copper, and magnesium stains that can ruin the appearance of your relaxation oasis. Metal Out is specially formulated to prevent the build-up of scale around the water line and in the plumbing, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of your spa or hot tub.

Minerals are notorious for discoloring when they oxidize. If these discolored minerals settle on the interior surface, they can leave stubborn stains. Iron stains go red/brown, copper stains go purple/black, and magnesium stains are pink/purple. Metal Out is the ideal solution for areas with high iron or copper content, or if you use well water.

To use Metal Out, simply add 16 ounces of the product per 500 gallons of spa or hot tub water. Make sure the circulation system is running to ensure proper distribution. Let the spa or hot tub circulate for 3-4 hours. Regular brushing is recommended to enhance the effectiveness of Metal Out. For stubborn stains and scale, a double dosage is suggested.

Metal Out's active ingredient is Hydroxyethylidene Diphosphonic Acid (HEDP), which chelates copper and iron, effectively removing them from the water. It is safe to use on all spa and hot tub interior types, giving you peace of mind. The dosage of HEDP in Metal Out is 5-6%, ensuring powerful stain removal.

Maintaining your spa or hot tub is crucial to enjoy a clean and healthy environment year-round. In addition to using Metal Out, we recommend regularly cleaning your filter and emptying the skimmer basket. These simple habits will protect your investment and allow you and your family to fully enjoy your spa or hot tub.

Water testing is another essential part of spa or hot tub maintenance. We suggest testing the water weekly or bi-weekly using a DPD or OTO reagent-based test kit, test strips, or digital testing. This will help you monitor the water chemistry and make necessary adjustments.

Balancing the water chemistry is key to maximizing the effectiveness of sanitizers and reducing maintenance costs. Maintaining proper pH and alkalinity levels will enhance the sanitizing power and prevent corrosion and scale formation on the interior surfaces and equipment.

Speaking of sanitizing, there are various options available for spa or hot tub sanitizers. Establishing a residual chlorine or bromine level with shock or concentrated granular chlorine/bromine is essential. Trichlor chlorine tablets or bromine tablets can be used with a floater or chemical feeder to maintain a proper chlorine level.

With a properly balanced and sanitized spa or hot tub, it's time to indulge in some relaxing soak. Enhance your spa experience with spa scents or a spa cover lift assist for added luxury and convenience. Safety should always be a priority, so make sure you have necessary safety equipment, such as a cover with clips, a life ring buoy, depth markers, and coast guard-approved life preservers.

If your spa or hot tub starts experiencing issues, don't worry. Begin by testing the water to determine the current readings. The treatment plan will depend on the specific symptoms, such as algae, cloudiness, living organisms, debris, or other water conditions. Addressing these issues promptly will ensure a clean and enjoyable spa or hot tub experience.
