Why this chemical is used

Calcium hardness matters because very soft water can be aggressive, while very hard water can scale.

When it is needed

Use calcium increaser after testing fill water. If calcium is already too high, dilution is often more useful than adding more products.

How to use it safely

Small spas are easy to overdose. When unsure, add less, circulate, and retest.

Next step: test your water, enter your readings into the calculator, then adjust slowly and retest.
