5. Add Start-Up Chemicals
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your authorized
Jacuzzi spa dealer. See section titled “Water Quality Maintenance”
(page 46) for general guidance.
6. Establish A Stable Sanitizer Reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm Chlorine or
2.0-4.0 ppm Bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always
maintain a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended
by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA printed on the
inside cover of this manual. If sanitizer levels cannot be stabilized,
perform the decontamination procedure steps 9-15 on the following
page.
Note: the “decontamination procedure” steps 9-15 should
also be used after the spa has been “Winterized” (sec. 12.7, page
45) or has been sitting without power for an extended period.
7. Set Spa To Heat
To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature, follow these steps:
•
The LCD display on the control panel displays the actual tempera-
ture of the spa water. Press either the
COOLER
or
WARMER
button once to display the “set” tem-
perature for 5 seconds. If you want the water to heat to
a different temperature, simply press
COOLER
or
WARMER
within 5 seconds. The set temperature
increases or decreases by one degree each time one of these but-
tons is pressed.
• The heater will turn off when the temperature corresponding to the
thermostat setting is achieved.
Important Heater Details:
• The maximum temperature for which the spa can be set is 104°F
(40°C) and the minimum is 80°F (27°C).
• For US/Canada spas powered by a service of less than 60 amps,
turn off jets pump #1 and jets pump #2 to operate heater.
• Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating
process. This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.
• The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set
temperature”, then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the
water cools to approximately 1.5° below the “set temperature.”
8. Place Cover On Spa
• Keeping the insulating cover in place anytime the spa is not in use
will reduce the time required for heating, thereby minimizing operat-
ing costs.
