Filter Maintenance Filtration starts as soon as flow is steady through the filter. The filter cartridge removes the dirt from the spa water, the accumulated dirt causes flow resistance. A dirty cartridge will decrease flow and may cause spa not to heat properly. Therefore, regular filter cleaning is important. Cleaning and Replacing Filter Cartridge (100 sqft.) Your Dynasty Spa filter has been designed for quick and easy maintenance. Turn off power at the breaker.
Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh Cleaning Your Spa Water You need to keep you spa clean and ready to use. When you enter your spa, you bring in as much contaminant as 50 people would in a normal size swimming pool! Because your spa is such a small, enclosed environment, it needs to be a sanitary place.
Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh 4) pH STABILIZER - It will properly adjust and hold the pH for up to 3 months Water Testing Your Dynasty dealer is equipped to perform a thorough analysis of your spa water. Take a one liter sample to the store and they will advise you on the products necessary to properly balance and care for your spa. Unbalanced spa water can quickly damage your equipment. Your Dynasty dealer will advise you on how to protect your investment.
Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh An Overview Monthly - For Equipment Protection CALCIUM BOOSTER (If Needed) - Calcium booster treats the water if low calcium hardness is a problem in your area. It will help prevent equipment corrosion and foaming by raising the spa's water hardness level to an acceptable range of 120 ppm. Filter Cleaning To keep your filter free of grease, grime, and oil. Clean the filter with SPA CARTRIDGE FILTER CLEAN. One 16 oz. bottle treats a 55 square foot filter.
Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh An Overview As Needed (cont.) Skin Conditioning To prevent dry skin, pour SKIN SOFTNER directly into the spa. It smoothes and moisturizes. Algae Control For spas with green or yellow algae, use SPA ALGAECIDE to kill and prevent further algae growth. Do not leave your water treatment products outside. If they are subject to extreme heat or cold, their effectiveness can be impaired making them unusable. Always keep these and other chemicals OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Draining Your Spa Because a spa holds a relative small amount of water, contaminants such as body oil, perspiration, dirt, hair, etc., may become quite concentrated. For this reason, the water should be drained and replaced every three months depending on use. Turn off power at the breaker. Hook up a garden hose to the hose bib located on the exterior corner When water begins to drain out of the hose, be sure to drain the water to a convenient place.
Winterizing Your Spa In areas of the country where the temperatures drops below 32º F, it is important to follow these directions When winterizing the spa, we recommend putting RV Antifreeze in the spa and running it before draining the spa. 1) If the spa is not going to be used, drain completely. Be sure all water is removed. Break or loosen unions at each end of pump to ensure water from pump area is removed. 2) Do not turn unit off with water in the spa.
Maintaining Your Spa Cover Proper Maintenance For Your Dynasty Spa Cover 1) Use a soft broom to remove accumulation after every snowfall or ice storm 2) Splash cool tap water on the hardware to free them if they become frozen shut. WD-40™ will keep the lock free, but apply carefully because it can damage the cabinet finish. 3) We recommend a good treatment with Vinyl Conditioner before your first snow or ice. If possible, treat during the winter too. 4) Monitor your water chemistry.
