Bring Low pH and Total Alkalinity Back into Range
Iluka Elevate effectively increases pH and Total Alkalinity in spa and hot tub water, helping return water balance to the correct level when readings are too low.
Low Total Alkalinity can reduce the buffering capacity of spa water, causing pH to fluctuate significantly. Water that is too low in pH or alkalinity can also contribute to equipment corrosion, surface damage, bather discomfort and excessive chlorine usage.

Features & Benefits
- Increases pH Levels: Helps raise low pH in spa and hot tub water to support the correct water balance range.
- Increases Total Alkalinity: Assists with increasing Total Alkalinity where test results show levels are too low.
- Helps Stabilise pH: Correct Total Alkalinity helps buffer spa water and reduce significant pH fluctuation.
- Supports Equipment Protection: Correcting low pH and alkalinity helps reduce conditions that may contribute to corrosion and surface damage.
- Supports Bather Comfort: Balanced spa water helps reduce the chance of irritation caused by water that is outside the recommended range.
- Supports Efficient Chlorine Use: Balanced pH and alkalinity help support normal sanitiser performance and reduce unnecessary chlorine demand.
How to Use
- Test the spa water to check pH and Total Alkalinity levels.
- Calculate the required dose according to your spa volume and test result.
- Dissolve the required amount of Iluka Elevate in a bucket of water first.
- With the pump and filter operating, slowly add the dissolved solution to the spa water.
- Run the filter for at least 1 hour.
- Allow 3–4 hours before retesting the water.
- Repeat only if further adjustment is required.
Dosage & Coverage
- Total Alkalinity Dose: Add 18g per 1,000 litres of spa water to increase Total Alkalinity by 10ppm
- Frequency: Use when pH or Total Alkalinity testing shows levels need to be increased
The Iluka Sea-Mineral Spa Experience
Iluka is an Aboriginal word meaning “near the sea”, and the feeling of being in a sea-like environment is at the heart of the range. Iluka Sea Minerals by Lo-Chlor brings together mineral comfort, water clarity and simple spa care to help create a more natural, luxurious and enjoyable spa experience.
Inspired by the calming feeling of being near the sea, Iluka transforms spa care into something softer, fresher and more rewarding — less like maintenance, and more like a calming ritual.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use this product?
Use it when spa water testing shows that pH or Total Alkalinity is too low. It should only be added when adjustment is needed, not as a routine dose.
Why should Total Alkalinity be adjusted before pH?
Total Alkalinity helps buffer pH. If alkalinity is too low, pH can fluctuate significantly, making the water harder to balance accurately.
Should I use Elevate or Descend?
Use Elevate when pH or Total Alkalinity is too low. Use Descend when pH or Total Alkalinity is too high. Always check the water with a suitable test kit before choosing an adjusting aid.
Why is low pH or alkalinity a problem?
Low pH or Total Alkalinity can contribute to unstable water balance, corrosion of equipment, damage to some spa surfaces, bather discomfort and excessive chlorine usage.
Can I add the granules directly to the spa?
No. Dissolve the required amount in a bucket of water first, then slowly add the solution to the spa with the pump and filter operating.
What should I do after adding it?
Run the filter for at least 1 hour, then allow 3–4 hours before retesting the water. Repeat only if further adjustment is required.
