Maintenance of Water Chemistry
Always shower before and aer using a spa. To reduce the possibility of
contracting a waterborne illness, always maintain water chemistry within the
parameters in this manual. If other bathers are aected by such a condition,
discontinue use and consult a physician.
Keep the water clean and sanitized with correct chemical care to help maintain
safe water and prevent possible damage to spa components. e recommended
levels for your Home & Garden Spa are:
Free Available Chlorine (FAC): 3.0 to 5.0 ppm
Total Alkalinity 125 to 150 ppm
Water pH 7.4 to 7.6
Calcium Hardness 150 to 200 ppm
Refer to Water Chemistry and Maintenance section for further information and
complete instructions about water and spa care.
IMPORTANT: Turn Jet pump on for at least ten minutes aer
adding any spa water chemicals into the lter compartment.
Clean the lter cartridge monthly to remove debris and mineral
buildup which may aect the performance of hydrotherapy jets,
limit the water ow, or trip the high limit thermostat which will
turn o the entire spa to prevent further damage to the spa.
AVOIDING THE RISKS OF HYPERTHERMIA
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a
dangerous condition which occurs when the internal temperature of the body
reaches a level above normal (98.6ºF). e symptoms of hyperthermia include
unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize
the need to exit the spa, physical inability to exit the spa, fetal damage in
pregnant women, and unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
e use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia in spas.
