Additional chemicals can be purchased at a pool and
spa supply store.
CAUTION: The chemicals used to maintain the pH
balance of the water and to sanitize the water can
be dangerous. Always follow these basic guide-
lines when handling the chemicals:
1. Always read and follow the directions on the
label, unless directed otherwise.
2. Never mix different chemicals.
3. Do not exceed the recommended amounts of
chemicals—follow the directions on the label
closely.
4. Keep all chemicals out of the reach of children
and pets.
5. Keep all containers closed tightly when not in
use.
6. Never add water to the chemicals—always add
the chemicals to the water as directed.
7. Always store chemicals in a cool, dry place.
MAINTAINING THE PROPER PH BALANCE
The pH factor is a measure of relative acidity or alka-
linity in the water. It is measured on a scale of 1 to 14.
Pure water has a value of 7, which is neutral. Any
value above 7 is alkaline, and any value below 7 is
acidic. You should maintain a slightly alkaline pH
level, between 7.2 and 7.8, in the hydrotherapy spa.
Severe problems can occur when the pH balance is
not maintained within this range. If the pH level
exceeds 7.8, dissolved minerals can build-up and clog
the plumbing in the spa jet unit. If the pH level falls
below 7.2, the acid level in the water will begin to cor-
rode the metal parts in the spa jet unit. Also, the sani-
tation agents in the water will not be effective if the pH
level is not properly maintained. Damage caused by
improper pH levels is not covered under the warranty.
To maintain the proper pH level, you should test the
pH of the water regularly, using the included pH test
kit. The pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8. If
the level is too low, add a pH increaser (usually soda
ash). If the level is too high, add a pH reducer (usually
sodium bisulfate). Test the water again after five min-
utes. See the instructions with your pH test kit for addi-
tional information about testing and adjusting the pH.
ADJUSTING THE FILTER CYCLE
The spa filter cycle runs automatically to clean the
water in the spa. However, the number of times that
the filter cycle needs to run depends on how often the
spa is used.
If many different people use the spa regularly, the
water will need to be filtered more often than if it is
only used occasionally by a few. The number of daily
cycles, as well as the length of the cycle, can be
adjusted.
The pump can run one to three filter cycles daily. To
change the number of cycles, press the pump and up
buttons at the same time. The number of cycles will
appear in the temperature display. Use the up and
down buttons to select the desired number of cycles.
Each cycle can run for 60, 120, or 180 minutes. To
change the length of the cycle, press the light and up
buttons at the same time. The length of the cycle will
appear in the temperature display. Use the up and
down buttons to select the desired cycle length.
The pump or the light may turn on while you are
adjusting the filter cycle. If this happens, you can turn
the pump or light off once you have finished the
adjustment procedure.
