11.8 Restarting Your Spa in Cold Weather
If you want to start up your spa after it has sat empty for a time in freez -
ing temperatures, be aware that the water remaining in certain sections
of the piping may still be frozen. This situation will block water flow
preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging the
equipment. We recommend you consult your dealer for guidance before
attempting to re-start your spa under these conditions.
12.0 Water Quality Maintenance
Maintaining the quality of the water within specified limits will serve to
enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the spa's equipment. It
is a fairly simple task, but it requires regular attention because the water
chemistry involved is a balance of several factors. There is no simple
formula, and there is no avoiding it. A careless attitude in regard to water
maintenance will result in poor and potentially unhealthful conditions for
soaking and even damage to your spa. For specific guidance on main-
taining water quality, consult your authorized Sundance dealer who can
recommend appropriate chemical products for sanitizing and maintain
-
ing your spa.
CAUTION: Never store spa chemicals inside the spa's equi -
ment bay.

12.1 pH Control
pH is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity of water and is measured
on a scale of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7 is said to be neutral, above
which is alkaline and below which is acidic. In spa water, IT IS VERY
IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN A SLIGHTLY ALKALINE CONDITION OF
7.4 to 7.6 pH. Problems become proportionately severe the further
outside of this range the water gets. A low pH will be corrosive to metals
in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals to deposit on the
interior surface (scaling). In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents
to keep the spa clean is severely affected as the pH moves beyond the
ideal range. That is why almost all spa water test kits contain a measure
for pH as well as sanitizer.
