07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 20 WATER CHEMISTRY TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW Before jumping into the Spa Water Maintenance, here are some terms to help you. 7. Filtration: Filters are necessary to remove particles of dust, dirt, algae, etc. that are continuously entering the water. If the spa is not operated long enough each day for the filter to do a proper job, this puts a burden on the chemicals, causing extra expense.
07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 21 SPA WATER MAINTENANCE Legend Series Spas and Down East Spas * All Down East and Legend Series Spas use the Eco Pur mineral filter(s).This section pertains specifically to maintaining water chemistry in spas that have the Eco Pur mineral filters. SPECIAL NOTE ECO PUR™ water purification system is designed to reduce the use of conventional sanitizers.
07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 22 WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE START-UP Legend Series Spas and Down East Spas For ECO PUR™ Water Purification System Optional: Fill your spa using a Pre-filter, which can be obtained from your local dealer. Step 1: During initial filling of the spa with fresh water, add a sequestering agent such as Mineral Clear or Stain and Scale, etc. depending on the brand name.

07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 23 THE ADVANTAGES OF ECO PUR™ MINERAL PURIFICATION Legend Series Spas and Down East Spas • Destroys most bacteria, pathogens, algae, and fungi. • Removes many heavy metals like lead and mercury from water. • Removes calcium carbonate and hydrogen sulphide from spa water to protect heaters and equipment from precipitation. • Helps stabilize the pH and alkalinity of the spa water.
07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 24 WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE-ECO PUR™ Legend Series Spas and Down East Spas BEFORE EACH USE - Check spa water with a test strip for proper sanitation levels and adjust accordingly to the proper levels. ONCE A WEEK Add 3 Tablespoons of a non-chlorine shock or 1 tea spoon of Dichlor to spa per 250 gallons. 3 TIMES A WEEK Test water using chemical test strips.

07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 28 SPA WATER MAINTENANCE TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE Problem Possible Causes How To Fix It Chlorine / Bromine Odor • Excessive Chlorine or bromine levels • Shock water with non-chlorine shock treatment • Low pH • Adjust pH if necessary • Low levels of sanitizer • Shock water with non-chlorine shock treatment or adjust sanitizer levels • pH out of range • Adjust pH level if necessary • Bacteria or algae growth • Adjust sanitizer if necessary
07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 29 WHY ARE CHEMICALS IMPORTANT IN A SPA 1. Evaporation: As water evaporates, only pure water evaporates, leaving the salts, minerals, metals, and any unused chemicals behind. Adding water adds more salts, minerals, and metals. In time, the water can become saturated with these dissolved solids and can cause stains or scale to form on the walls of the spa or a scale build up inside the equipment.
07 Master/DE/Freedom Owners Manual 5/3/07 2:31 PM Page 30 MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS Your spa requires periodic draining and cleaning to ensure a safe, healthy environment. It is recommended that you clean your spa at least every 180 days. Heavy bather load will require cleaning it more often. TO DRAIN YOUR SPA • See page 9. TO CLEAN YOUR SPA SURFACE • With a soft cloth, wipe down the spa surface with a non-abrasive spa surface cleaner that may be purchased through your local spa dealer.
