get into it! installation instructions LOCATION For your portable spa to function properly and safely, it must be located on a hard, flat, level surface. Inground spas require special installation techniques and should be planned in conjunction with your spa dealer. Improper installation can result in structural damage to the spa and the voiding of your spa warranty.
get into it! installation instructions OUTDOOR AND PATIO INSTALLATION To install the spa outdoors, we recommend a reinforced concrete pad at least four inches thick. The reinforcing material should be attached to a #8 AWG bonding wire per national and local electrical code. If you place the spa on the ground, even temporarily, place concrete pavers under the entire bottom of the spa. The concrete pavers should be a least two inches thick and level across the entire surface.
get into it! installation instructions SHUT-OFF VALVES Your spa is equipped with shut-off valves (see EQUIPMENT DIAGRAM) that shut off the water flow to the equipment system for dealer service. At times, a new spa or one that has recently been serviced, may have the shut-off valves partially closed which can restrict the water flow and hinder jet performance. Be sure the valves are fully open.

get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide IMPORTANT CHEMICAL SAFETY PROCEDURES 1. Always keep chemicals out of reach of children. 2. Read product labels carefully prior to use. 3. When dissolving, always add chemicals to water, do not add water to chemicals. Some dry chemicals should be dissolved prior to adding them to the spa. Using a clean container, dip some water from the spa. Mix until dissolved, then add to circulating water. 4. CAUTION: Do not add chemicals together.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide UNDERSTANDING WATER BALANCE Water balance is the interrelation of factors that determine the quality of the spa water. The effectiveness of chemicals and other additives are dependent on all these factors working together or “in balance”. The primary elements to water balance are sanitizing, monitoring pH and alkalinity levels, and oxidizing or shocking.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide pH Level The pH level measures the relative acidity and basicity of the water. The ideal pH level is 7.2 - 7.8. When the pH level falls below 7.2 the water can become corrosive. Low pH can cause damage to metal in the equipment pack and heaters, excessive sanitizer consumption, and skin irritation. A pH level above 7.8 can be scale-forming and allows metals or minerals in the water to form deposits and stain spa surfaces.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide Balancing the Water When initially filling or refilling your spa follow these steps to achieve proper water balance. Important! Always circulate the water for at least 15 minutes after making any chemical additions, before retesting water, or adding any additional products. 1. Test the spa water using a Test Strip (see label for easy dip and read directions). 2. Determine the pH and alkalinity level of the water using the color comparison chart on the bottle. 3.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide Metal and Stain Control If minerals such as calcium, iron, copper, or manganese exist in your water supply, they can stain spa surfaces. Metal & Stain Control prevents spa staining. Add per label directions for the gallons of your spa each time you freshly fill the spa with water. Calcium Hardness Increase It is critical to have some calcium in your water, however, the level of calcium should be between 200 – 400 ppm.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide WATER CARE REGIMEN Spa care products are classified by easy to follow usage guidelines. The information below indicates whether the product should be used daily, weekly, monthly, when filling, or as needed – if special water conditions arise. (Products classified as “Filling” are described on the previous page.) DAILY Sanitizer is the only product in this category. You should maintain the recommended sanitizer level at all times.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide AS NEEDED PRODUCTS pH & Alkalinity Increase and pH & Alkalinity Decrease These two products work to raise or lower the pH and alkalinity levels in the spa and are only needed if the test strip indicates the levels are not in the ideal range. Clarifier Microscopic particles can pass right through the spa filter and create cloudy water.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE C: Cause S: Solution CLOUDY WATER C: Inadequate filtration or dirty filter. S: Check that the filter is securely installed. Clean or replace filter. C: Water is not balanced. S: Treat water with Shock and test water with a Water Test Strip. Adjust sanitizer level, pH, and alkalinity levels as needed. C: Unfiltered particles or chemically saturated water. S: Use Clarifier to combine particles; or drain, clean, and refill the spa.
get into it! spa care and enjoyment guide FAILURE TO GET A SANITIZER READING ON TEST STRIP C: Sanitizer level is too low. S: Add chlorine or bromine until the sanitizer registers in the recommended range on the test strip. C: Algae present. S: Dirty water consumes the sanitizer as soon as it is added. Add more chlorine or bromine until the sanitizer registers and stays in the recommended range on the test strip. C: Test strip remains “white” even after sanitizer has been added.
