Step 2: Adjust pH – ideal range is between 7.4-7.6. Test water, follow directions on manufacturer’s
label, and add the required amount of spa chemicals with the jets on.
Step 3: Adjust bromine/chlorine – ideal range is between 2-3 ppm chlorine and 3-5 ppm bromine (4-6
ppm for heavy spa usage). Fill bromine floater or adjustable feeder and shock spa as necessary.
Step 4: Stain and scale control – add the required amount of spa chemicals with jets on weekly.
NOTE: The chemical chart above is a simple schedule for moderate spa use. Depending on the usage,
chemical balancing may be required more often.
SPA CARE
FILTER CLEANING
Always make sure the power to the spa is off before removing and cleaning the pleated cartridge filter.
Cartridges should be removed and hosed off weekly. Using a high pressure hose nozzle between the
pleats will easily remove dirt and debris. This will be evident as you rinse. A soaking in filter cartridge
cleaner should be performed every 2-4 weeks depending on spa usage.
CARE FOR SPA SURFACE
Mountain Series Spas have a very high quality finish. Stains and dirt will generally not adhere to the
surface. After draining the spa, wipe the surface with a soft damp cloth (or sponge) using household
soap or liquid detergent. Stubborn dirt and stains maybe removed by using Spic & Span adequately
dissolved in water. Be sure to rinse detergent well as this will cause suds when refilling the spa.
CARE FOR SPA PILLOWS
Due to the nature of a spa’s environment, spa pillows are exposed to chemicals, which in turn can affect
the pillow’s useful life. To be extra careful, we encourage you to always remove the spa pillows when
adding chemical treatments to your spa’s water. The spa pillows can then be re-installed to the spa
when the chemical level is at the recommended parts per million (PPM). For most spas, this is between
3-5 PPM.
Furthermore, spa pillows should be cleaned regularly. To do this, remove the pillows from your spa, and
then wipe the pillows with a soft damp cloth using mild dish washing soap and warm water. Rinse off
the excess soapy water, and then simply re-install the pillows onto your spa.
CARE OF SPA CABINET (THERMOPLUS CABINET)
Your ThermoPlus cabinet requires little or no maintenance of any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet
with a clean towel and mild detergent soap solution.
CAUTION – Do not use any cleaning products containing abrasives or solvents since these could
damage the surface of the ThermoPlus spa skirt and void your warranty.
