FROG @ease Floating System

• Test and balance your spa water weekly using a FROG Test Strip.
• Replace the SmartChlor Cartridge when empty, based on the FROG Test Strip showing a lighter color than the out indicator on the bottle.
• Shock your water with Chlorinating Concentrate or Enhanced Shock once or twice per month, depending on usage.
• Clean your filters every 30 days with SpaGuard Filter Cleaner – remove the filters, saturate surface with cleaner, allow to sit for 15-20 minutes, then hose the filters off with a high pressure hose or Water Wand. Ensure ALL soap is removed before placing the filters back to avoid foaming. *To avoid issues with foam, try to keep all detergents, lotions, oils, soaps, makeup, perfume, and hair products out of the water!
• Drain, clean, and refill your spa water every 4 months, following the start-up instructions. Over time, the total dissolved solids build up and saturate the water, preventing proper sanitation and balancing. A new FROG @ease Sanitizer Start-Up Kit will contain the Cartridges, Test Strips, and Jump Start that you need. It’s important to discard the used Mineral Cartridge after 4 months, whether you replace it or not. After this time period, it loses its efficacy and will cause cloudy water.

• Check your water balance. If your pH or Total Alkalinity is off, SmartChlor will not be as effective.
• Check to see if your FROG @ease SmartChlor Cartridge is empty.
• Increase the dial setting if needed. If the FROG @ease SmartChlor Cartridge is not empty, try turning up the dial one setting.
• Make sure your minerals have not been used for more than 4 months. When you hear minerals left inside, it is because one of the minerals does not completely dissolve – SmartChlor will only be effective when used with active FROG minerals.

The @ease System combines the proven FROG mineral formula for killing bacteria with SmartChlor Technology that maintains a consistently low chlorine level for weeks.

Unlike normal chlorine that is used up when you enter the spa, SmartChlor continues to maintain the same level, which is up to 75% less than hot tubs using DiChlor (standard hot tub chlorine). That’s why it’s called self-regulating – it goes to work when the hot tub needs sanitizing so there are no frustrating yo-yo levels. This time-released method is also why less shock is needed to maintain the hot tub.

This technology is so unique it has its own testing method that’s easier than standard test strips.

In 2 seconds, you can know precisely whether your pH, Total Alkalinity, and Calcium Hardness are balanced, plus whether or not the SmartChlor Cartridge needs replacing. Simply dip the FROG @ease Test Strip into the water, remove with the pads facing up, and shake once to remove the water on the FROG Test Strips. Then hold it up next to the color chart on the back of the bottle to compare colors.

If the SmartChlor color on the strip is darker than the bottle label, the water is fine. If it’s lighter, then simply replace the SmartChlor Cartridge!

This technology is so unique it has its own testing method that’s easier than standard test strips.

Why can’t I use another test strip? The FROG @ease SmartChlor Cartridge forms a reserve that will be inaccurately measured as total chlorine on other test strips. Unlike conventional chlorine, the SmartChlor reserve readily shifts to free chlorine as needed, maintaining spa health with a low level of chlorine.

A new standard for keeping your hot tub water crystal clear – continuously.

So no touching chemicals, no bad smells, no faded swim suits.

SmartChlor Cartridges maintain a SmartChlor reserve in the water based on the output level you set, automatically delivering more free chlorine as needed and maintaining a consistent 0.5-1.0 ppm free chlorine level at all times. In other words, no frustrating yo-yo chlorine levels!

FROG @ease Troubleshooting

What size hot tub will FROG @ease work in?

Hot tubs 150 to 600 gallons are perfect for FROG @ease.

How does FROG @ease compare to bromine floaters or using chlorine?

With standard chemicals, you experience peaks and valleys in your sanitizing routine. When you add chemicals, the level spikes, and when you use the hot tub, the level drops. This yo-yo method goes away with FROG @ease because it maintains the same level of sanitizing all the time. Plus, it’s conveniently tucked away with easy access whenever you need to change a cartridge.

How can it work so well with 75% less chlorine?

SmartChlor is not a typical chlorine. It will consistently maintain a 0.5 to 1.0 ppm free chlorine level. This wouldn’t be enough on its own, but with FROG minerals, it’s a perfect combination that kills bacteria 2 ways so you have a cleaner, clearer hot tub that’s wonderfully soft and odor free!

How long do the Mineral and SmartChlor cartridges last?

The mineral cartridge lasts four months (or change whenever you drain and refill your hot tub). The SmartChlor Cartridge lasts 3-4 weeks depending on the size of your spa and how often it is used.

Is a FROG @ease System expensive?

SmartChlor is slightly more expensive than dichlor but less than some other systems. Consumers who have tried it tell us it’s SO worth the money, because it makes owning a hot tub extremely easy with far less monitoring and shocking. Plus with up to 75% less chlorine, your suits won’t fade and your hot tub itself has less wear and tear.
