WARM WEATHER CONDITIONS
The following describes situations you may encounter and situations to be aware of.
Warm Weather Conditions
Since your spa will normally be expected to maintain warm to hot water ready for use, a
great deal of attention has been directed to the energy conservation detail of insulation to
keep electrical cost down. Energy conservation efficiency may be achieved by extensive
insulation of the spa cabinet, plumbing, spa shell and in some climates full foam insulation
may have been provided. This energy conservation feature may cause an inconvenience
during warmer times of the year. During warm periods of the year, the temperature within
the equipment compartment can elevate to a point that the pump will automatically turn off
for a short amount of time (15-30 minutes) to allow the pump to cool down before
automatically restarting. This cool down feature will not harm your spa, but serves only to
protect the pump from damage ad as and indicator that it is too hot. To minimize this
occurrence, refrain from using your Hydrotherapy Jets for prolonged periods of time during
warm seasons. The jet pump chosen for your spa has been specifically sized for
maximum performance and your Hydrotherapy enjoyment.
Filtration System
Please refer to your Spa Manufactures Owner’s Manual regarding the operation,
maintenance and cleaning of your filtration system.
When freezing weather and/or power losses are expected, contact your local spa dealer
for freeze protection or winterizing recommendations for both the spa and the equipment
system. Freeze related damage is not covered by the warranty.
Winterizing
Chemical Water Treatment
Your dealer is familiar with local water conditions and which chemicals are compatible with
and designed specifically for your spa. This is the best person to advise you on proper
water quality management. The one thing you can do to insure years of trouble free
equipment operations is to maintain proper water chemistry.
Two basic goals of the chemical water treatment are sanitizing and balancing the water.
Sanitizing simply means keeping the water free from microorganisms including algae,
bacteria and viruses. The current most popular chemicals for sanitizing include chlorine,
bromine and ozone.
Operation Considerations
IMPORTANT - Heater pump must provide a minimum flow of 23 GPM through heater.
Balancing water means establishing a balance among pH, total alkalinity and total
hardness. Water that is unbalanced can corrode the spa and it’s support equipment or
leave deposits of minerals. Properly balanced water is essential to allow the sanitizing
chemical to work effectively. There are numerous chemical additives to help you in
controlling pH, total hardness and alkalinity. Never use softened water when filling you
spa. Softened water is extremely corrosive to the metal parts of the spa equipment and
may lead to an unforeseen failure. Sometimes, despite your most diligent efforts, your
water may become to far out of balance to be managed chemically. At this point it is
probably better to drain and clean the spa and start over with fresh water. Equipment
failure caused be improper water chemistry will not be covered under warranty. Saltwater
purification systems can potentially damage your equipment. Any related failures will not
be covered under warranty.
