About Your Ozone Generator
Ozone’s natural sanitation power is harnessed by the spa’s ozone generator to keep the hot tub water fresh and pure. The ozone is injected into the water in a fully dissolved state and interacts instantly with whatever organic matter is there. In theory, ozone has a half-life of about 22 minutes in a hot tub, but in practice it is used up almost instantly, leaving a very small quantity of residual ozone.
