    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA DRAINING YOUR SPA Your spa needs to be drained, cleaned, waxed, and refilled about every six months. More frequent water changes may be necessary if bather load is heavy. A hose bib has been provided below the left side of your front access panel, to assist you in draining your spa.

  • Page 36: Jet Care

  • Page 38: Winterizing Your Spa

    WINTERIZING YOUR SPA It is not recommended that you drain your spa completely during freez- ing conditions.

  • Page 39: Spa Cabinet Care

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA cont... SPA CABINET CARE Your spa comes standard with a PermaWood, or faux wood, cabinet. This cabinet requires no maintenance. You may wish to clean the cabi- net with mild soap and water from time to time. If you elected to pur- chase your spa with a wood cabinet, this cabinet is stained and sealed with an oil based acrylic stain.

COVER CARE Cleaning of your spa cover is an important part of routine maintenance. Dirt acts as an abrasive to the vinyl topcoat, and can also cause wear to folds, seams, and stitching.

  • Page 41: Chemical Treatment Of Water

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA cont... CHEMICAL TREATMENT OF WATER Water from your tap is fine for showers, bathing and drinking. However, in a contained recirculating system such as in a spa, water must be treated with chemicals. The main purpose of chemical treatment is to keep the water sanitary and to maintain a specific balance of the water.

  • Page 42: Water Chemistry

    WATER CHEMISTRY CAUTION: The chemicals used to maintain the pH balance of the water and to sanitize the water can be dangerous. Always follow these basic guidelines when handling the chemicals: 1. Always read and follow the directions on the label, unless directed otherwise.
  • Page 43 WATER CHEMISTRY cont... WATER TREATMENT GLOSSARY cont... The effects of low PH can be rapid sanitizer loss, eye and skin irritation, expedited corrosion of metals, as well as staining throughout the spa. High PH can result in cloudy water, low sanitizer efficiency, as well as eye and skin irritation.
  • Page 44 9 - Organic Matter: These are carbon-derived substances typically generated by living organisms. In a spa, they are most frequently intro- duced into the water by bathers. Enzyme products such as Spa Perfect by Natural Chemistry are most effective at eliminating organic matter from your body of water.
  • Page 45 WATER TREATMENT GLOSSARY cont... 17 - Chloramines: Irritating, odorous forms of combined chlorine, formed by the reaction of chlorine with nitrogen containing waste prod- ucts. Chloramines are ineffective as a pool or spa sanitizer. High lev- els of chloramines can cause the problems of “Red Eyes” or “Stinging Eyes.”...

Most include some type of replaceable cartridge, that contains the copper, silver or zinc materials. 24 - Biguanide: The generic name for a non-chlorine, non-bromine, sanitizer that utilizes the polymer PHMB (polyhexamethylene bigu- anide).

  • Page 47: Spa Chemicals Glossary

    SPA CHEMICALS GLOSSARY 1 - Alkalinity Up: The total alkalinity of your spa water should be be- tween 80-140 PPM. A proper alkalinity will help buffer your spa water against sudden changes in pH. Every 2.5 tablespoons of Alkalinity Up will raise your alkalinity by 10 PPM in a spa holding 500 gallons of wa- ter.

  • Page 48: Maintaining The Proper Ph

    7 - pH Up: The effects of low pH can be rapid sanitizer loss, eye and skin irritation, expedited corrosion of metals, as well as staining through- out the spa. pH up can be purchased from your dealer in either liquid or solid granular form.
