Product Overview

Hot Tub Things® pH & Alkalinity Up is a spa water-balancing treatment intended to help raise total alkalinity as part of routine hot tub maintenance. Its documented sodium bicarbonate formulation supports the water's ability to resist changes in pH.

Available in 1 lb and 2 lb containers, it provides practical package options for your spa-care supplies.

Because pH and total alkalinity are different measurements, test both before deciding whether treatment is appropriate. This product is intended primarily for total alkalinity adjustment rather than a guaranteed numerical pH increase.

Follow the current container label for dosage, application, retesting, handling and safe spa re-entry.

  • Test your spa water before using Hot Tub Things® pH & Alkalinity Up to understand its current pH and total alkalinity readings.

    Follow the directions on the actual product container to determine whether treatment is needed, the appropriate quantity and the approved application procedure.

    Follow the label for circulation, retesting and safe spa re-entry. Do not substitute dosage or timing instructions from another pH or alkalinity increaser.

  • pH and total alkalinity are related but measure different aspects of spa water chemistry.

    pH measures how acidic or basic your water is.

    Total alkalinity describes the water's ability to resist changes in pH and helps maintain more stable water balance.

    Hot Tub Things® pH & Alkalinity Up has a documented sodium bicarbonate formulation intended primarily for total alkalinity adjustment. The amount of pH change, if any, depends on your spa water's conditions and cannot be predicted from the product name alone.

  • Use actual water-test results and your spa manufacturer's water-care guidance when evaluating pH and total alkalinity.

    An alkalinity adjustment does not replace checking pH. After treatment, verify the water's condition according to your product label and water-care program.

    Do not assume that different water-balancing chemicals are interchangeable or that the same dosage applies to products with different formulations.

    When using additional treatments, follow their individual labels and avoid mixing concentrated chemicals together.

  • Avoid getting the powder in your eyes or on your skin and minimize breathing airborne dust. Eye contact may cause irritation.

    Wash your hands after handling and use suitable eye protection when dust is generated.

    Keep the container tightly closed. Protect it from heat, moisture and incompatible materials.

    Do not mix the concentrated product with acids or other spa chemicals. Contact with acids can release carbon dioxide.

    Store securely away from children and pets. Follow the container instructions for handling, first aid and disposal.
