The hydrotherapy spa is designed to seat seven
adults. The spa holds approximately 300 gallons of
water and offers a heating system (80°F to 104°F), a
filtration system, and adjustable hydrotherapy jets.
Follow the guidelines below to use and maintain the
spa for your long-term enjoyment.
WIRING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
The hydrotherapy spa is designed to operate with a
240-volt power source. It must be wired directly into a
grounded circuit with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) capable of carrying 40 amps. No
other appliance should be on the same circuit.
Connection of the spa to the 240-volt power
source must be performed by a qualified, licensed
electrician and must comply with all local, state,
and federal electrical codes.
Please refer to the
instructions on the inside of the electronics package
for information about connecting the spa to a 240-volt
power source.
Once the spa is filled with water, the power can be
turned on. Note: The first time the power is turned on,
the spa will start automatically.
TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER
The first time you use the spa, you should test and
treat the water.
You must also treat the water each
time you refill the spa.
A test strip and a chemical
pack are available at your local pool and spa supplier.
Follow the directions carefully on the chemical pack to
test and treat the water.
Always keep the chemicals
away from children and pets.
See WATER CHEM-
ISTRY on page 13 for information concerning proper
water maintenance.
STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
You should always test the GFCI before using the
hydrotherapy spa. First, turn on the spa by pressing
the pump button on the console (see USING THE
CONTROLS on page 12). Once the spa is running,
press the GFCI “test” button. The spa should shut off.
Press the “reset” button. The spa should resume nor-
mal operation. If the spa continues to run after the
“test” button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged. Do not
use the spa until the GFCI has been repaired or
replaced by a qualified electrician.
Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the
water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air controls
to the lowest setting (see USING THE CONTROLS
on page 12). The pumping unit will heat the water as
it pumps. Cover the hydrotherapy spa with the spa
cover.
The spa cover must be tight
(see SECUR-
ING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA on this page).
The water will heat at about 6°F per hour with the
cover on. If you are using the spa indoors, and the
room temperature is maintained at 70°F, it will take
approximately 6 to 8 hours for the water to reach the
set temperature.
The temperature and the water flow can be set or
changed with the controls on the console (see USING
THE CONTROLS on page 12).
SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA
To secure the spa cover,
snap the latches on the spa
cover into the buckles on the
premium cedar panels.
To lock the buckles, insert
the key and turn it clock-
wise 1/4 turn. To unlock the
buckles, insert the key and
turn it counterclockwise 1/4
turn.
Always keep the
buckles locked when the
spa is not in use. Keep the keys in a safe place,
out of the reach of children.
