11.0 Automatic Filtration Cycles
Your new spa includes an 8-hour circulation pump which filters the water
continuously. The circulation pump draws water through the skimmer bag
and one of two filter cartridges to effectively remove small debris in your
spa.
Note: The 8-hour circulation pump system also supplies heated water to
the spa when the heater turns on. To set a time for the circulation pump
filtration cycle, simply turn power on to the spa two minutes prior to the
desired time.
The control system activates a programmable “Standard” or “Economy”
filtration/heating cycle to remove larger debris missed by the 8-hour
circulation pump filtration system. These cycles utilize pump #1 low
speed and the second filter cartridge to quickly “skim” the water of large
debris and minimize their “bath-tub ring” effect. Apart from their skimming
benefit, each mode also effects the operation of your spa’s heater.
11.1 Standard Filtration/Heating Modes (F0-F3)
Standard filtration/heating modes are typically selected by customers in
cold climates where heat up times are extended due to lower ambient
temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by the
set temperature, 8-hour circulation pump, jets pump 1, and heater which
turns on as needed. After the programmed set temperature is reached,
the heater turns off and the circulation pump continues to operate for the
remainder of its filter cycle and clean your spa unless in summer logic;
see Section 14.1, page 48.
11.2 Economy Filtration/Heating Modes (F4-F6)
Economy filtration/heating modes are typically selected by customers in
warm climates where heat up times are minimized due to higher ambient
temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by the
set temperature, 8-hour circulation pump, jets pump 1, and heater only
while a programmed filter cycle is running (unless in summer logic; see
11.3 Lock Modes (L1-L2)
These modes are designed for use during spa service or to prevent
unauthorized use.
11.4 Selecting The Filtration/Heating Mode
Press and hold both control panel
WARMER

buttons at the same time, then release. Then press either
WARMER
( ) or
COOLER

lock modes L1-L2. During the filtration/heating cycle the jets pump 1 low
speed and circulation pump will activate.
