FAQs

How often should I use ScaleStop for prevention?

For ongoing prevention of limescale, it is advised to add ScaleStop on a weekly basis after refilling your hot tub or spa.

Can ScaleStop be used in a standard bathtub or shower?

ScaleStop is specifically formulated for hot tubs, spas, and whirlpools. Its use in other plumbing systems is not recommended.

What is the main cause of limescale in hot tubs?

Limescale is primarily caused by mineral precipitation from the water, which is often exacerbated by the high temperatures found in hot tubs and spa water, as well as the water's pH level.

How does ScaleStop work?

ScaleStop works by preventing the formation of new limescale deposits and helping to dissolve existing ones caused by mineral precipitation.

Do I need to drain my hot tub to use ScaleStop?

For heavy limescale removal, draining and manual cleaning before refilling with ScaleStop is recommended. For regular prevention, it can be added to the existing water weekly.

Can ScaleStop damage my hot tub's components?

When used as directed, ScaleStop is designed to safely treat the water and prevent damage from limescale. Always follow product instructions.

Troubleshooting

Limescale is still visible after application

For heavy or long-standing limescale, it is necessary to drain the hot tub, clean manually, and then re-treat with ScaleStop. Ensure regular weekly applications for prevention.

Product appears less effective

Check and adjust the water's pH level, as high pH can contribute to increased limescale formation. Ensure you are using the correct dosage and applying it regularly.

Cloudy water after adding ScaleStop

This can sometimes occur as ScaleStop breaks down deposits. Continue circulating the water and monitor clarity. If persists, consider filtration issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To effectively use ScaleStop for removal of significant limescale, it is advised to first drain your hot tub, spa, or whirlpool.
