FROG® Jump Start®
Single Dose Start-Up Shock for Hot Tubs
16 Reviews Read Reviews | Write Review
Our start-up hot tub shock comes in a single, easy-to-pour packet. No more measuring out capfuls per your gallon size. Once in the water, FROG Jump Start quickly dissolves before it hits the bottom of the hot tub so it won’t bleach surfaces. You can see the bubbles as it goes to work providing an initial chlorine level for your freshly filled hot tub. Using FROG Jump Start® takes the load off your FROG @ease® SmartChlor® Cartridge or FROG Serene® Bromine Cartridge so they last a bit longer.
Fast and easy hot tub start-up for hot tubs up to 600 gallons
Removes organic contaminants and establishes a chlorine level.
Optimizes performance of FROG hot tub sanitizing systems
Additional Information
FROG Jump Start provides a dichlor chlorine shock with a unique effervescence that is designed specifically for starting-up a freshly filled spa. It’s a one-dose-fits-all shock product that dissolves quickly. The bubbling action properly sets the initial chlorine level on spas up to 500 gallons and creates a start-up level of sanitizer that can be used to help find the right setting for the bromine cartridge (see manual for instructions).
What makes FROG Jump Start different than other shock treatments?
It is a convenient, one-dose packet that will start-up any hot tub up to 600 gallons. No measuring needed – just cut and pour. The effervescence helps the dichlor dissolve faster so there’s no concern about bleaching surfaces.
When do I use FROG Jump Start?
It is meant for starting up a freshly filled spa but you can also use it for occasional shocking.
How do I purchase FROG Jump Start?
One FROG Jump Start packet comes in every FROG @ease and FROG Serene System and is sold separately in most FROG dealerships.
Is FROG Jump Start compatible with other chemicals?
As a dichlor product it is compatible with all other hot tub chemicals except biguanide.

how long do I wait to use the hot tub after adding jump start?
Brian Liu - January 28, 2024
my tub is only 220 gallon, and one packet says it's for 600 gallons. does that mean i use 1/3 of a packet for my 200 gallon tub each time i refiill/shock? you guys really need to print a chart/instructions on each packet [design fail!]. thanks

As Kari Marzen - November 8, 2020 stated. I think the startup packet is way too much chlorine. This is supposed to be easy. I may use 1/3 of the packet next time as well. My spa is 400 gallons and it is way too high in chlorine levels. Been running for over 24 hours now and still to high. Unless I’m doing something wrong, be careful adding the whole packet. I may have to drain some water and fill with some fresh water.
