BASIC SPA INFORMATION
Your new Cal Spa has been engineered with a high-powered water pump that pushes water through various therapy jets, which will
relax even the tightest of muscles. In addition to the water pressure, you can add air into the spa water with air venturies or the
optional turbo feature, to increase the intensity of your massage. Do not be afraid to push buttons or turn knobs to learn about your
new Cal Spa, as it is built with quality materials and excellent craftsmanship.
The following operating and maintenance instructions are very important and must be followed carefully. With the
proper care and maintenance, your Cal Spa will provide you with years of satisfaction and performance. The filtering of your spa is
very important, this alone will cut down cleaning time and use of excess chemicals. We recommend that your spa filters no less than
four hours twice a day.
It is very important to keep the spa covered when not in use for three reasons. The first is heating efficiency; covered spas use less
electricity in maintaining your set temperature. The second is to protect your spas finish from the suns ultraviolet rays. Covering your
spa is mandatory to maintain warranty coverage. And again, to prevent children from falling and drowning.
Operating your new Cal Spa equipped with an electric heater correctly will ensure efficient operation. The most efficient operating
method is as follows:
1.
Operate spa in Economy Mode. (See pages 21 through 36 for your specific models operation) (Except in freezing
climates)
2. Set spas filtration mode to a maximum setting of F4 (See pages 21 through 36 for your specific models operation)
3. Set spa to run off peak hours. (i.e. F4 at 7 to 11 AM and 7 to 11PM) (See pages 21 through 36 for your specific
models operation)
4. Set spas operating temperature within 10˚ of desired usage temperature and raise temperature one to two hours
prior to usage. (This method is only for spa usage under 2 hours a week)
5. If spa usage exceeds two hours a week, set temperature within 5˚ of desired usage temperature and raise
temperature one hour prior to usage.
6. The optional turbo feature should be used sparingly. When operating the turbo, water temperature drops quite
rapidly and can also dissipate chemicals.
NOTE : Allowing the water temperature to lower more than 10 degrees below desired usage temperature and
reheating prior to usage will cause the heater to operate longer than it normally would maintaining the desired
temperature.
Your spas optional turbo feature should be used sparingly. When operating the turbo, water temperature drops quite rapidly and can
also dissipate chemicals. The filter needs to be cleaned on a regular basis. This is very simple and only takes a few minutes. The result
is increased waterclarity and equipment longevity. (See pages 13 and 14 for filter cleaning instructions.)
The spa water level is very important to the operation of your spa. If the water level is too low or too high, your spa won ’ t run or
clean properly. (The water level should be to the middle of the “skimmer area” when no one is in the water.)
We recommend that your spa water be changed every 4 to 6 months. You may find the need to change your spa water more often with
heavy use. When empty, your spa should be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner, such as “Cal Spas All Surface Cleaner,” then rinsed
thoroughly.
When draining your spa, turn off the power to the spa and attach a garden hose to the hose bib fixture either located on the floor of
the equipment area or on the outside of the cabinet.
When filling your spa, always fill through the skimmer filter canister. Only use regular tap water. DO NOT USE SOFT WATER .
Spas built in the winter months may be delivered with the bleeder valves removed from the pumps and taped inside the control box.
We remove the bleeder valves after water testing at the factory to prevent possible freeze damage during shipping. Prior to filling your
spa for the first time, make sure you replace the air bleeder valves and check the equipment area for any unions that might have
loosened during shipment.
In addition to your portable spas’ redwood skirt, you may have purchased a gazebo, cabana, steps or any other redwood accessory.
We recommend that you protect them by applying a high quality redwood protectant, and repeat as specified in the directions. This is
mandatory to maintain warranty coverage.
