Too Much SmartChlor®? FROG® @ease® for Swim Spas Fix

A hand holds a FROG @ease Sanitizing System for Swim Spas, showing its gray SmartChlor cartridge, in a grassy backyard.

If Chlorine or Bromine Is Too High

With SmartChlor® Technology, it’s very difficult to over-chlorinate. The system self-regulates and maintains a consistent sanitizing level until the cartridge is empty.

If using standard test strips, your total chlorine reading will be higher because the total chlorine is really a reserve of inactive chlorine that automatically converts to free chlorine when needed.

Use FROG® @ease® Test Strips to avoid confusion.

Check the Mineral Cartridge
Even if you hear minerals inside, they may be used up. Replace the blue Mineral Cartridge every 4 months.

Clean filter
Clean filter to ensure proper water flow and remove any debris from the swim spa.
