Quick Product Summary

Leisure Time Foam Down 1 Quart, SKU 9297160, is a concentrated spa and hot tub defoamer designed to quickly collapse unwanted foam on contact. Foam in hot tubs is commonly caused by body oils, lotions, detergents, cosmetics, and organic contaminants that build up in the water. Use Foam Down when you need fast visible foam control, while continuing to maintain proper sanitizer, water balance, filtration, and regular spa maintenance. Leisure Time lists Foam Down as compatible with chlorine, bromine, ozone, and biguanide sanitizer systems.

Best For

• Hot tubs and spas
• Quick foam removal during spa use
• Chlorine, bromine, ozone, and biguanide systems
• Routine spa water maintenance
• Reducing visible foam caused by oils, lotions, detergents, and organic buildup
• Spa owners who want a fast, easy foam-control product

Why This Matters

• Foam can make spa water look dirty or poorly maintained
• Unwanted foam is often caused by contaminants building up in hot water
• Foam Down helps restore a cleaner-looking water surface quickly
• A concentrated formula allows small treatments as needed
• Foam control is helpful, but persistent foaming may signal a water balance or maintenance issue
• Proper use helps manage foam without replacing normal sanitizer, filtration, and water care

Common Signs You Need This / Use This When

• Use this product when visible foam appears on the surface of hot tub or spa water
• Use this when jets create persistent white foam that does not disappear quickly
• Common causes include lotions, body oils, soaps, detergents, cosmetics, and organic contaminants
• Use this when you want fast foam knockdown before or during spa use
• Use this as part of routine spa maintenance, not as a replacement for water balancing or draining when needed
• If foam keeps returning, test the water and check calcium hardness, sanitizer level, and overall water condition

Product Specifications

Compatibility / Fitment Notes

Leisure Time Foam Down is formulated for hot water environments and is designed for use in hot tubs and spas. Leisure Time describes Foam Down as a concentrated formula that begins working immediately to eliminate foam when applied directly to the foaming area.

This product is compatible with chlorine, bromine, ozone, and biguanide sanitizer systems. It is not a sanitizer, shock, pH adjuster, alkalinity increaser, calcium hardness increaser, clarifier, or substitute for draining and refilling water when water quality requires it. Persistent foam may indicate a water balance issue, low calcium hardness, detergent contamination, or water that needs to be drained and replaced.

Installation / Use Notes

Shake well before using. Add Foam Down directly to the foaming area in small amounts, using approximately 1/2 oz. at a time, then repeat as needed. Leisure Time’s current directions state to apply directly to foam and use 1/2 oz. on the foaming area.

Always follow the product label directions. If foam keeps coming back, test the spa water and correct the underlying cause instead of relying only on defoamer. Regular filter cleaning, showering before spa use, avoiding detergent residue on swimsuits, and maintaining proper sanitizer and water balance can help reduce recurring foam.

Foam Down is useful for quick foam control, but it is also important to understand why foam appears and when water balance or maintenance is needed. We focus on helping customers choose the right spa chemical for the problem instead of using one product to cover up a larger water-care issue.
