Disinfecting Your Spa

Note:

If not enough disinfectant is being

dispensed even at higher settings,

remove the dispensing limiter

found inside the tablet chamber of

the dispenser.

Warning:

Risk of fire and/or explosion. Under no circumstance should you

mix trichloro-s-triazinetrione with bromine or other chemicals.

Use one chemical only. Never mix. Never switch from one

chemical to the other without thoroughly cleaning out the

previously used chemicals.

Disinfectants [chlorine or bromine] have strong oxidizing properties that

kill bacteria and destroy other materials.

Your spa is equipped with a disinfectant dispenser, enabling you to keep

your spa clean and healthful with a minimum of effort. This dispenser is

designed to use bromine or trichloro-s-triazinetrione tablets of the slow

dissolving type.

Adjust your disinfectant dispenser as follows:

1. Verify proper disinfectant level by checking the spa water with an

appropriate test kit. A level between 3-5 ppm should be

maintained.

2. Start by adjusting the control valve on the dispenser to position 3.

3. Make small gradual changes in the setting until your test kit

verifies the proper setting. [The higher the setting, the more

disinfectant will be dispensed].

4. Increase the disinfectant level to 5 - 10 ppm once a week. This is

called "superchlorination" or "superbromination". This procedure

aids in the formation of active disinfectant.

Recharge your disinfectant dispenser as follows:

1. Turn off power at GFCI or circuit breaker before performing any

service or see standby mode section for DS-2 & DS-4 power pack.

2. Remove disinfectant dispenser from filter housing.

3. Remove check valve assembly by turning counterclockwise.

4. Fill with trichloro-s-triazinetrione or bromine tablets or sticks

which are 1" in diameter.

5. Install check valve assembly. Do not overtighten.

6. Install dispenser on filter.

7. Turn on at GFCI or circuit breaker.
