Innovations In Spa Stabilizer Products: Enhancing Water Balance With Advanced Technology

PRESS RELEASE
Published December 30, 2023

Maintaining the right balance of chemicals in a spa can be a bit challenging. From pH levels to total alkalinity, spa owners must understand which chemicals to use and when to use them. One of the integral components of this balance is the pool stabilizer.

For years, traditional cyanuric acid has been used as a stabilizer. However, innovative manufacturers have introduced new products with advanced technologies for better water balance.

In this article, we'll look into some crucial breakthroughs in spa stabilizer products that effectively eliminate one of the biggest headaches associated with spa maintenance: water balance.


Enzyme-Based Stabilizers

One of the latest innovations in stabilizer products is the development of enzyme-based products. Enzyme-based stabilizers work by breaking down organic material that accumulates in the folds of a filter, thus preventing calcium buildup and other residues associated with chlorine.

Unlike traditional stabilizers, enzymes do not require a weekly or monthly backwash, making them even more convenient.


Smart Stabilizers

Smart stabilizers have been introduced to the market recently and use advanced technology to monitor water balance. These products can track pH, calcium hardness, and alkalinity levels and report any imbalances. Some products even work with smartphones to provide real-time notifications and recommendations.

Smart stabilizers are incredibly convenient and suitable for those who don't have time to test their water regularly. They allow you to maintain your spa water without hassle and ensure a perfectly balanced spa experience.


Borate-Based Stabilizers

Borate-based spa stabilizers are becoming increasingly popular as a reliable alternative to traditional cyanuric acid. Borate-based products work similarly to cyanuric acid but with several advantages.

Firstly, borates can protect against bather waste and improve water clarity from the first use. Secondly, borate-based products stabilize the spa's pH level, often resulting in lower maintenance costs. Finally, borate stabilizers are safer since they don't contribute to CYA-induced chlorine lock.


UV Light System

UV light technology has become widely popular in eliminating harmful bacteria and algae in pools and has also been introduced to the spa industry. These UV systems work by illuminating the water in your spa with UV-C light, which eradicates harmful microorganisms before they can multiply and cause contamination.

Alongside cleansing your water, this product also reduces the consumption of chlorine and bromine.


Sodium Tetraborate

Sodium tetraborate is a multi-purpose stabilizer, also known as borax. Besides being a water stabilizer, it's a water softener, an alkalinity booster, and a pH buffer.

Adding just a bit of borax to your spa's water can lend a hand in controlling pH balance and buffering sudden changes, resulting in improved water quality. Borax is also an eco-friendly solution as it doesn't contain harmful chemicals like traditional stabilizer options.


Digital Testing Devices

Digital testing devices are an exciting innovation that helps spa owners by removing the more laborious nature of chemical testing. While traditional testing kits require the user to conduct chemical tests manually, digital testing devices allow for quick and convenient testing of both pH and stabilizer levels.

These devices help reduce waste and eliminate any concerns about misinterpreting test results. The results provided by these testing systems are highly accurate, making them a perfect ally for spas that require precision chemistry.


Final Thoughts

The spa industry is enjoying significant technological advancements, combined with the right application of chemicals and maintenance practices, which can help spa owners effortlessly maintain a perfectly balanced environment. The future of the spa industry is promising, with further innovations likely to deliver even more exciting solutions for balancing water.

In the meantime, these innovative stabilizer products are a great addition to any spa owner's arsenal. By using these products, you can avoid the hassles of traditional stabilizers and raise the bar of your spa maintenance experience.
