CUSTOMIZING YOUR MASSAGE
Your Caldera
®
spa offers numerous ways for you to customize your massage experience. Experimentation is the best way to find what feels best to you. Try sitting in
different seats, adjusting the diverter valves, air controls, and jet nozzles and turning each pump on or off.
DIVERTER VALVES
The diverter valves on your spa allow you to direct the flow of water from the pumps to
various combinations of jets. The functions of these diverter valves can best be learned
by experimentation as follows:
1. Set all air controls to the “ON” position by rotating counterclockwise.
2. Turn on both pumps.
3. Turn the handle on each diverter valve and see which groups of jets are affected.
(Note that you can adjust the diverter valves to any position between the two
possible extremes to achieve the jet pressure that feels best to you.)
IMPORTANT:
Your spa is not designed to provide full power to all jets when the
diverter valves are in the “mid” position. However, with the diverter valve in this
position, you may increase the power to selected jets by rotating the face of the
Magna
TM
and MagnaSsage
TM
jets to close the ones that are not in use.
TIP:
Turn both pumps on and place the diverter valves to the “Mid-Position”. Then experiment with each of the air controls to see their effect.
ACQUARELLA
TM
WATERFALL VALVE
Your spa is equipped with the Acquarella waterfall feature. It is activated by turning on jet pump 2 (either low or
high speed). The flow is regulated by turning the Acquarella waterfall valve on the inside wall of the spa.
ATLAS
®
NECK JET VALVE
The Geneva
TM
, Niagara
®
, and Elation
®
spas are equipped with 4 directional neck jets located in the EcstaSeat
TM
.
The flow of the neck jets is regulated by turning the Atlas NeckJet valve on the inside wall of the spa.
AIR CONTROLS
Each jet system has its own air control. These allow you to change the power of the jets by regulating the amount of
air that is mixed with the water coming out of the jets.
HYDRO JETS
Magna Jets -
These jets allow you to redirect the jet stream by changing the position of the nozzle.
MagnaSsage Jets -
These jets provide a rotating massage pattern.
The nozzles in the Magna jets and the MagnaSsage jets are interchangeable. To remove a MagnaSsage rotating
nozzle, simply grasp it and pull straight out. To install, align and push straight in, the nozzle will snap into place. To
remove, or install a standard Magna jet nozzle, rotate the tabs on either side of the nozzle. Additional MagnaSsage
rotating nozzles and dual-port nozzles are available from your Caldera dealer.
Both the Magna and MagnaSsage jets allow you to regulate the force of the massage. Rotate the fascia ring
clockwise to reduce the force, or counter-clockwise to increase the force. Notice that turning off the flow to some
jets increases the flow to the other jets. To avoid damage to your spa’s plumbing and components, do not turn off
more than half of these jets at the same time.
Position 1 -
The full flow
is directed to one series
of jets.
Mid-Position -
Positioning the diverter
at any point between
position one and two
divides the flow between
the jet systems.
Position 2 -
The full flow
is directed to a second
series of jets.
