Other tips:
For Canada, in.clear™ must only be used with Sodium Bromide (such as
BromiCharge™) scheduled or registered under the Pest Control Product
Act. For USA, the Sodium Bromide (such as BromiCharge™) must be
registered under EPA.
Your warranty will be void if another product is used as a substitute.
Do not breathe it or get into your eyes! First Aid
instructions should appear the container of the registered
Sodium Bromide container.
Do not use any other sanitation chemicals (including
shock) in the spa.
When adding fresh water to the spa, start a Boost to help build
a residual bromine bank.
6 - Determining the proper Maintenance Level for my spa
(refer to page 12 for details)
Determining the proper maintenance level for your spa is an
extremely important step. Using your spa while you're establishing
the residual will slow the process. Be patient. Make sure you follow
steps 1 through 6 previously described before performing the
following steps.
Your maintenance value was set at the factory. It should read 25 to
start.
Since the in.clear™ bromine generation is not an instantaneous
process, at least 24 hours should be allowed for the bromine bank
to reach stabilization. After that period, check bromine level to
make sure it is back between 3-5 PPM.
If the bromine level is within that range, you are ready to use
your spa. If the bromine level is above 5 PPM, decrease the
maintenance level. If the bromine level is below 3 PPM, increase
the maintenance level. Always allow at least 24 hours for the
bromine bank to stabilize. Repeat these steps until you are able to stabilize
your bromine level between 3 and 5 PPM.
Do NOT increase/decrease maintenance level in steps greater than 2.
Setting the maintenance level to a value that's too high can cause
damage to your equipment.
Check bromine level and always test water before entering
the spa.
If the bromine level is higher than 5 PPM, lower the main-tenance
level and turn off the system until the bromine level is back below 5
PPM. Then, restart the system and continue monitoring the bromine
level.
To lower the bromine level, expose your spa water to the sun and
activate all pumps for a few cycles.
Testing bromine levels with FAS-DPD drop count method
is more accurate than using test strips. Bromine FAS-DPD
is available at www.geckodepot.com under number 0699-300008.
7 - Determining the Boost Mode level for my spa
Every time you use your spa, activate the Boost Mode using the
Boost Key on the keypad. As a rule of thumb, the
Boost level may correspond to the number of bathers using the
spa. For example, activate the Boost level to 2 indicators if two (2)
bathers are entering the spa.
At the end of the Boost period, verify that the bromine level has
returned to the 3-5 PPM range. If the bromine level is too low or
too high after the Boost period, the Boost level should be adjusted
the next time the spa is used. For example, if bromine level is
higher than 5 PPM after Boost, lower the Boost level by one at next
use under the same conditions. Repeat these steps until you are
able to determine the ideal Boost level for your usage.
Note: Boost levels depend on the number of bathers using the
spa. We recommend you validate the Boost level after each use
to determine the ideal Boost level for every condition (number of
bathers).
