9. For proper operation the spa pool must be fitted with an effective thermally insulating cover when
not in use.
10. The floor or base on which the pool is installed has to be capable of supporting the expected load.
11. Precautions should be taken to ensure that spa pool water is disposed of appropriately.
12. An adequate drainage system should be provided to deal with overflow water.
13. Precautions should be taken to avoid damage due to water freezing in the pipes and fittings.
14. Precautions should be taken to avoid damage when the pool is left empty for an extended period.
SPA WATER TREATMENT
Recommended Chemical Values
Chlorine.........................1.5-3.0PPM(Parts Per Million)
pH..................................7.2-7.6
Total alkalinity................80-120PPM
It is important to maintain your spa water chemistry to the above values to ensure a healthy experience both for
you as bathers and for your spa pool equipment.
PH
This is a measure of how acid or alkaline the spa water is (below7.0 is acid, above7.0 isalkaline).Low pH
will cause corrosion of any metalwork in the water (element, thermostat pockets). High pH will cause scale
formation and cloudywater.
Total Alkalinity
This is ameasure of how resistant your spa water is to change of pH. A low TA (0-80ppm)will allow the pH to
fluctuate rapidly normally to the acid end and will make it very hard to correct the pH back to the ideal range.
Chlorine
Levels of sanitiser are important to prevent the build up of bacteria,and algae in the pool water.Chlorineis not
the only sanitiser available to do this. Other sanitisers are Bromine,Ozone.
Damage to the element, thermostat pockets and associated metalwork due to the poor maintenance of
water chemistry is not covered by warranty.
1. TOUCH PADS
Auto LED (No 24hr circulation pump fitted)
The yellow Auto indicator light will appear on the touch pad whenever the system is in full automatic
control mode. In this mode the system automatically activates the pump and heater to filter the water and
maintain the set water temperature. If this light is flashing the water sensor is not detectinganywater.
