your own personal use. When using ozone,
you should start by balancing your water
chemistry as you normally would. A spa
should run and be ozonated a minimum of
six hours per day. If your spa is heavily used,
this run time should be increased. Your spa
produces ozone during the ltration cycles
(pg. 18). The amount of a residual sanitizer
(chlorine or bromine) that you maintain in the
water will also vary depending on use. It is
recommended that you maintain a residual of
3.0–5.0 ppm. Periodically, and after periods
of heavy use, it is necessary to ‘shock’ your spa
with large amounts of sanitizer.
NOTE: Extra ltration can be provided by
manually starting a clean-up cycle. Turn
Pump 1 on in low speed. The pump will
operate for 4 hours and then automatically
turn o. The heater will also operate during
this period if the controls are set in
Standard mode.
Specialty Chemicals
While ozone may signicantly reduce the
usage of specialty chemicals (chlorine and
bromine), it is not a substitute for these
chemicals. All chemicals should continue
to be monitored, especially during periods
of heavy usage and when changing or
replenishing the spa water.
Draining Your Spa
NOTE: Always turn the circuit breaker
o when you drain your spa. Do not turn
the spa heater back on until you have
full ow coming from the jets for several
minutes.
High concentrations of impurities caused by
water evaporation, body oils, perfumes, and
other contaminants may accumulate in the
spa and cannot be ltered out.
NOTE: Consequently, it is advisable to drain
your spa and rell it with fresh water every
six to eight weeks or more often, depending
on the amount of use.
All spas are equipped with both external and
internal drains. The external drain is used for
draining the spa. The internal drain(s) are used
to remove water from internal hoses when
Winterizing your spa (see pg. 25) or if the
water is severely contaminated.
NOTE: Use a standard garden hose to direct
the water to an appropriate disposal area.
The external drain valve is located behind the
niche door at the base of the front side of
the panel. Open the niche door and pull the
drain out approximately one foot. Remove the
cap, attach a garden hose, and turn the valve
handle 90° counter-clockwise. When ow
stops, close the valve, remove garden hose,
replace the cap, and push the hose back into
the niche.
The internal drain hose(s) are located behind
the front access panel. Remove the access
panel screws and the access panel. Locate
the drain hose(s). For each hose drain valve,
remove the cap, attach the garden hose, and
turn the valve handles, located on the drain
valve body, 90° counter-clockwise. Water will
begin to ow. When all water has been
evacuated, turn the valve handle clockwise
until it stops. Remove garden hose and replace
the cap. Repeat for each internal drain hose.
NOTE: Do NOT attempt to use the pump
to drain the spa.
