Setting Filtration Cycles
Your spa will automatically filter itself twice a day. To set the filtration time, turn off the power to the spa at the
GFCI Breaker and turn it back on at the time of day you would like the filtration cycles to start.
Example: If you power-up your spa at 12 Noon, your filtration cycles will start at 12 noon and 12 Midnight.
The first cycle will start after the spa is powered up. The second filtration cycle will begin twelve hours later.
The filter cycle duration is preset for two hours. If spa usage is heavy, your Cal Spas™ authorized service
technician can reconfigure your system to run two five hour filter cycles.
120V/240V Conversion
The 1500 series spa is a convertible system. The conversion from 120 Volts to 240 Volts must be performed by
a licensed/bonded electrician. See 120 to 240 Volt conversion instructions, located on the inside cover of the
control box.
Note: Only spas equipped with 1.5 BHP pumps may be converted to 120 Volts. Spas with 2.0 BHP pumps or
larger can only be operated on 240 volt services.
120 Volt Heater Operation
When connected as a 120-Volt spa, the heater will only operate when the spa motor is on low speed or filtration
speed. Once the high-speed motor is engaged, the heater will automatically disengage.
