Requirements for personnel carrying out the installation
Maintenance and servicing personnel must read and understand this manual. All instructions
given in this chapter must be followed when maintaining and caring for the product.
8.2
Requirements for maintenance and care
It is essential that the maintenance and care instructions given in this chapter are followed by
the user if the product is to reach its maximum service life. The measures described in this
chapter and the intervals listed will dependent greatly on which optional maintenance
accessories the user has chosen as well as how long and how frequently the hot tub is used.
Unless otherwise stated in the following chapters, the requirements listed below serve as the
basis for care and maintenance:
•
3 persons using the hot tub 3 times a week for two hours or, for "OPAL” hot tubs, 2
persons using the product 3 times a week for two hours
•
Showering before each use
•
Do not use skin creams, oils or hair products as they reduce the quality of the water and
consequently increase the amount of maintenance for the hot tub
•
Using the optional sand filter unit, the optional skimmer, and the UV lamp regularly
•
Using the Hot Tub Clean Care detergent regularly
•
Adjusting the pH level between 7.0 and 7.4
•
Cleaning the hot tub regularly when the product is not in use (e.g.: using Hot Tub Clean
Care, pH Plus, pH Minus, UV lamp)
•
Using fresh water as bathing water.
If circumstances change, the following intervals must be adjusted accordingly. Holzklusiv is
happy to answer any questions you may have.
As far as stove design is concerned, it should be noted that "316" model stoves are more
resistant to corrosion than "304" model stoves. You may also use salt water or sea water in
conjunction with the 316 stove. You should consider the type of water to be used when
choosing the stove.

Water treatment
8.3.1
Adjusting the pH level / alkalinity
Regardless of the above basis, the pH level of the water should always be in the range between
7.0 to 7.4 or the alkalinity should always be between 80 and 120 mg/l. If this is not the case,
please use pH Plus (pH level booster) or pH Minus (pH level reducer) accordingly.
