Frequently Asked Questions

How long will this kit last? This depends heavily on the size of your hot tub and how often you use it. Generally, the balancers (Spa Up and Spa Down) will last several months, while the sanitizer (Spa 56) and shock (Renew) will typically need to be replenished after 1 to 2 months of regular use.

Can I use this on an inflatable hot tub? Yes. The Leisure Time Chlorine kit is safe and highly effective for use in standard acrylic hot tubs, roto-molded spas, and inflatable models like Intex or SaluSpa.

Do I need to wait to use the hot tub after adding these chemicals? After adding balancers or shock, it is best to leave the cover off and run the jets for at least 15 to 30 minutes. Always check your test strip to ensure chlorine is at a safe level (3-5 ppm) before entering the water.
