Product Overview
Metal Gon works by sequestering metals in your fill water, keeping them suspended so your filter can remove them. Whether you're filling a new spa or maintaining an existing one, this product is essential for anyone dealing with well water or municipal water supplies that contain trace metals.
How Does Metal Gon Work?
When you fill your spa with fresh water, dissolved metals like iron and copper are often present—especially in well water. As these metals are exposed to sanitizers and oxidizers, they can precipitate out of solution and leave brown, green, or black stains on your spa shell and equipment.
Leisure Time Metal Gon uses advanced chelating agents to bind with these metals, keeping them in solution where your filter can capture them. This prevents oxidation and staining before it starts, saving you time, money, and frustration.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Use the entire 16 fl oz bottle each time you fill your spa with fresh water — this is a one-time treatment per fill, not a weekly dose. Pour it in as you fill (or immediately after), run the filter for at least 30 minutes, and your spa is protected against metal staining until your next drain-and-refill.
