GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY 1. NECK JETS 2. SHOULDER JETS 3. THERAPY JETS 4. MASTER BLASTER FOOT THERAPY JET Your new Master Spa features a variety of jet styles. All jets, regardless of style return the water to the spa. Air is mixed with the water by using the air controls creating a gentle to most vigorous massage. Water flow is adjusted by simply turning the outer face of the jet. Your Master Spa will have a combination of pulsating, rotating, dual pulsating and directional adjustable jets.
GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY 6. CASCADE WATERFALL VALVE - Located on the topside of the spa, this valve adjusts water flow to the cascade waterfall.This feature is available in the LS Series only. Cascade Waterfall Valve 7. AIR CONTROL VALVES - These are located around the top of your spa. You may increase or decrease the force of your jets by opening or closing the air control valves.Typically, one dial controls the air to water ratio and mix to one group of jets.
GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY 9. PERSONAL REMOTE CONTROL - The Legend Series (LS) spas have additional remotes which allow the user to control the jet therapy while remaining in his/her seat. By pressing the control one time, you will activate low speed. Press the pad again for high speed and again to turn it off. Personal Remote Control 10. EQUIPMENT ACCESS PANEL - Located behind the side panel below the Topside Control Panel, this area houses the major components responsible for the spas operation.
GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY 13. FILTER LID -Your filter lid will serve to prevent major objects from entering your filter area and possibly damaging your filter elements which are located under the filter lid.These filter elements are designed to remove small debris and oils from your spa water. 14. WEIR GATE - The weir gate is the horizontal door located in front of the filter that traps debris and contains it in the filter area. 15.
GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY 19. MAIN PUMP - This produces water flow through the main jets in the spa. The first pump may be operated on two speeds. Low speed will produce efficient water circulation during filtration and gentle jet action. High speed should be used for maximum jet action.The main pump is controlled by the “Jets” or “Jets I” button on the Topside Control Panel or by using the Personal Remote Control next to the Aqua Pressure Seat (LS Series only). 20.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS HAVE YOUR ELECTRICIAN READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLATION BEGINS Electrical connections made improperly, or the use of wire gauge sizes for incurring power which are too small, may continually blow fuses in the electrical equipment box, may damage the internal electrical controls and components, may be unsafe and in any case will void your warranty.

SITE PREPARATION / GENERAL GUIDELINES Portable spa installation is simple when properly planned.To that end it is important that you read the following information carefully and consult with your Master Spas dealer. 1) Access - The actual dimensions of your new spa will determine the amount of space that is needed in moving the spa from curbside to its final installation area. Be sure to measure side yard dimensions, gates or doors and vertical obstructions such as roof overhangs and overhead cables.
SITE PREPARATION / GENERAL GUIDELINES GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTDOOR INSTALLATION Again, proper planning will increase your total enjoyment factor with your new spa. Listed below are some additional items to consider when planning your installation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1.) Put spa in final position that allows for access to equipment of spa components. 2.) Remove front side panel (This is the side where the main topside control panel is located) so electrical can be hooked up to the spa system pack. Panels are removed by unscrewing the screws in the corner sections and then lifting up the panels out of the retaining tracks. Removing of Panels 4.) Be sure all pump and heater unions are secure. Each pump has 2 unions and the heater has 2 unions.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 8.) It may be necessary to bleed air from the motor(s) on your spa if, after start up, your spa pumps do not operate. Due to the nature of water flow and hydro-therapy pumps, please be advised that air locking of pumps may occur. Master Spas has taken measures to reduce the possiblilty of this, but it still may occur, especially after refilling a spa. This is not a service covered under warranty.
WATER CHEMISTRY TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW Before jumping into the Spa Water Maintence, here are some terms to help you. 1. Parts per million, or ppm: This is a form of measurement used in most pool or spa chemical readings. Best described as any one million like items of equal size and make up, next to one unlike item , but of equal size. This would be one part per million. 2. Average size spa: What is it? The national spa and pool institute (NSPI) states; 350 to 400 U.S. gallons is average.
WATER CHEMISTRY TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW Before jumping into the Spa Water Maintence, here are some terms to help you. 7. Filtration: Filters are necessary to remove particles of dust, dirt, algae, etc. that are continuously entering the water. If the spa is not operated long enough each day for the filter to do a proper job, this puts a burden on the chemicals, causing extra expense. Filtration time will depend on the spa size pump and filter size, and of course, bather load.
SPA WATER MAINTENANCE Master Spas and Down East Spas * All Down East and Master Spas use the Eco Pur mineral filter(s). This section pertains specifically to maintaining water chemistry in spas that have the Eco Pur mineral filters. SPECIAL NOTE ECO PUR™ water purification system is designed to reduce the use of conventional sanitizers.You will still be required, periodically, based on usage to add a small amount of chlorine to oxidize organic compounds.
WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE START-UP Master Spas and Down East Spas For ECO PUR™ Water Purification System Optional: Fill spa using ECO PUR™ Charcoal Pre-filter. Step 1: During initial filling of the spa with fresh water, add a sequestering agent such as Mineral Clear or Stain and Scale, etc. depending on the brand name. Allow to circulate and filter for at least 12 hours. Step 2: Test water for pH, total Alkalinity, and Calcium hardness. The pH should be 7.2 - 7.8 and the total Alkalinity 80-150 PPM.
THE ADVANTAGES OF ECO PUR™ MINERAL PURIFICATION Master Spas and Down East Spas • Destroys most bacteria, pathogens, algae, and fungi. • Removes many heavy metals like lead and mercury from water. • Removes calcium carbonate and hydrogen sulphide from spa water to protect heaters and equipment from precipitation. • Helps stabilizes the pH and alkalinity of the spa water. • Reduces up to 90% of chemical usage and still provides safe odor-free water.
WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE-ECO PUR™ Master Spas and Down East Spas BEFORE EACH USE - Check spa water with a test strip for proper sanitation levels and adjust accordingly to the proper levels. ONCE A WEEK Add 3 Tablespoons of a non-chlorine shock or 1 tea spoon of Dichlor to spa per 250 gallons. 3 TIMES A WEEK Test water using chemical test strips. Adjust sanitizer, pH and Alkalinity accordingly.
SPA WATER MAINTENANCE - START-UP Freedom Spas (For Spas without Eco Pur™ Mineral Purification System) 1. Read the spa owners manual first. 2. Clean the surface with a spa general purpose cleaner or wipe down with a clean wet towel. 3. Begin filling the spa with fresh water. If possible, do not use softened water. 4. When the spa has 2 to 4 inches of water on the bottom, add the recommended amount of a sequestering chemical for that size spa. See the chemical bottle for correct amounts. 5.
SPA WATER MAINTENANCE - START-UP Freedom Spas (For Spas without Eco Pur™ Mineral Purification System) DAY ONE 1. Test and adjust total alkalinity if necessary to between 80 to 150 ppm using the pH / alkalinity increaser or decreaser 1oz. at a time. Wait 15 minutes, retest and adjust if necessary. The pump should be running on high speed during this time with the air controls closed. 2. Test and adjust pH if necessary to within the range of 7.2 to 7.8 using the pH / alkalinity increaser or decreaser 1/2oz.
SPA WATER MAINTENANCE - START-UP Freedom Spas (For Spas without Eco Pur™ Mineral Purification System) DAY FOUR SKIP DAY FIVE 1. Test and adjust total alkalinity, if necessary, to between 80 and 150 ppm using the pH / alkalinity increaser or decreaser, 1oz. at a time. Wait 15 minutes, retest and adjust if necessary. The pump should be running on high speed during this time with the air controls closed. 2. Test and adjust the pH, if necessary, to within the range of 7.2 to 7.
SPA WATER MAINTENANCE TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE Problem Possible Causes How To Fix It Chlorine / Bromine Odor • Excessive Chlorine or bromine levels • Shock water with non-chlorine shock treatment • Low pH • Adjust pH if necessary • Low levels of sanitizer • Shock water with non-chlorine shock treatment or adjust sanitzer levels • pH out of range • Adjust pH level if necessary • Bacteria or algae growth • Adjust sanitizer if necessary • Dirty filters or inadequate filtration • Clean filters and
WHY ARE CHEMICALS IMPORTANT IN A SPA 1. Evaporation: As water evaporates, only pure water evaporates, leaving the salts, minerals, metals, and any unused chemicals behind. Adding water adds more salts, minerals, and metals. In time, the water can become saturated with these dissolved solids and can cause stains or scale to form on the walls of the spa or a scale build up inside the equipment. Colored or cloudy water, and possible corrosion of plumbing and fittings may also occur. 2.
MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS Your spa requires periodic draining and cleaning to ensure a safe, healthy environment. It is recommended that you clean your spa at least every 180 days. Heavy bather load will require cleaning it more often. TO DRAIN YOUR SPA • See page 9. TO CLEAN YOUR SPA SURFACE • With a soft cloth, wipe down the spa surface with a non-abrasive spa surface cleaner that may be purchased through your local spa dealer. Do not use paper towels. Be sure to rinse residue from spa surface.
WINTERIZING YOUR SPA Many people find they enjoy using their spa more in the winter than any other time. Your spa is designed to be used year round in any type of climate. *However, if you decide you don’t want to use your spa in the winter, you must drain it and follow the winterizing steps listed below: 1.) Drain your spa completely using the drain valve (see "To Drain Your Spa") or use an inexpensive submersible pump that you can buy from your dealer or your local hardware store. 2.
