Sirona Spa Care Chlorine Start-up Kit
Product Overview
A complete 3 LB hot tub opening package built around fast-dissolving sodium dichlor and non-chlorine oxidizer.
Fresh hot tub fills require immediate sanitation and oxidation before initial use. The Sirona Spa Care Chlorine Start-up Kit packages Chlorinating Granules (1 lb), Activate Granular non-chlorine shock (1 lb), and Foam Out (16 oz) with a 10-count test strip bottle. This 3 LB kit establishes a stable sanitizer baseline and knocks down surfactant-driven surface foam without clouding hot water.

Benefits & What Makes It Different
Granular Chlorine (1 lb)
Fast-dissolving sodium dichlor sanitizes fresh fill water and establishes a free chlorine baseline of 1–3 ppm.
Activate Oxidizer (1 lb)
Potassium monopersulfate non-chlorine shock breaks down bather waste and chloramines without raising stabilizer levels.
Foam Out Defoamer (16 oz)
Concentrated emulsion suppresses surface foaming caused by body oils, cosmetics, and aeration jets.
Product Details
Sodium Dichloro-s-Triazinetrione (Chlorinating Granules), Potassium Monopersulfate (Activate)
Add approx. 0.5 oz Chlorinating Granules per 500 gal to reach 1–3 ppm free chlorine; add 1 oz Activate per 250 gal for weekly oxidation.
Compatibility
- Compatible with all acrylic, fiberglass, and rotomolded portable spas.
- Do not pre-mix dry chemicals together in the same container; add separately with jets running.
When To Use This
Pro Tip
Hot water evaporates faster in arid climates and concentrates dissolved solids quicker; test total alkalinity to stay within 80–120 ppm and keep pH at 7.2–7.6 before adding your initial dose of granular sanitizer to prevent scale.
Common Questions & Instructions
What is included in the Sirona Spa Care Chlorine Start-up Kit?
This 3 LB total weight kit contains one 1 lb container of Chlorinating Granules (sodium dichlor), one 1 lb container of Activate non-chlorine shock, one 16 oz bottle of Foam Out, and a 10-pack of water balance test strips.
How do I balance a hot tub on initial fill with this kit?
First, test and adjust total alkalinity to 80–120 ppm and pH to 7.2–7.6. Add approximately 0.5 oz of Chlorinating Granules per 500 gallons with jets running to achieve a 1–3 ppm free chlorine residual, followed by Activate shock to eliminate organic residue.
Does sodium dichlor add cyanuric acid to hot tub water?
Yes. Sodium dichlor adds approximately 0.9 ppm of cyanuric acid for every 1.0 ppm of free chlorine added. In hot tubs, drain and refill every 3 to 4 months once cyanuric acid exceeds 50 ppm to prevent chlorine lock.
