Product Overview
Hot Tub Things® Metal Out is a concentrated stain and scale prevention treatment specifically formulated for hot tubs and spas. This chelating agent binds to dissolved metals in your water—including iron, copper, manganese, and calcium—preventing them from oxidizing and staining your spa surfaces, equipment, and water.
Whether you're filling your spa with well water high in minerals or dealing with metal contamination from source water, Metal Out provides continuous protection against the most common causes of spa staining and scale formation.
