The hydrotherapy spa is designed to seat two adults.
The spa holds approximately 200 gallons of water and
offers a heating system (80°F to 104°F), a filtration
system, and adjustable hydrotherapy jets. Follow the
guidelines below to use and maintain the spa for your
long-term enjoyment.
PLUGGING IN THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
Important: The hydrotherapy spa is equipped with a
120/240 volt convertible electronics package.
Operation at 240 volts will allow the heater to run
more efficiently and less often. Conversion of the
spa to 240 volt operation must be performed only
by a qualified, licensed electrician and must com-
ply with all local, state, and federal electrical
codes. Please refer to the instructions on the inside
of the electronics package for information about con-
verting the spa to 240 volt operation. Note: the spa
must be wired directly into a grounded circuit with
a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) capable
of carrying 40 amps. No other appliance should
be on the same circuit.
Once the hydrotherapy spa is filled with water, the
power cord can be plugged in and the spa can be
turned on. Note: The first time the power cord is
plugged in, the spa will turn on automatically.
When connecting the power cord, plug the power cord
directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
amps. No other appliance should be on the same cir-
cuit. Replace the power cord immediately if it
becomes damaged.
There is a Ground
Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI)
on the end of the
power cord. Always
test the GFCI
before using the
hydrotherapy spa.
First, turn on the
spa by pressing the
jet control on the
console (see
USING THE CONTROLS on page 12). Once the unit is
running, press the GFCI “test” button. The spa should
shut off. Press the “reset” button. The spa should
resume normal operation. If the spa continues to run
after the “test” button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged.
Do not use the spa until the GFCI has been repaired or
replaced by a qualified electrician.
TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER
The first time you use the spa, you should test and
treat the water. You must also treat the water each
time you refill the spa. A test strip and a chemical
pack are available at your local pool and spa store.
Follow the directions carefully on the chemical pack to
test and treat the water. Always keep the chemicals
away from children and pets.
See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 13 for information
concerning proper water maintenance.
STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
You should always test the GFCI before using the
hydrotherapy spa. First, turn on the spa by pressing
the jet button on the console (see USING THE CON-
TROLS on page 12). Once the spa is running, press
the GFCI “test” button. The spa should shut off. Press
the “reset” button. The spa should resume normal
operation. If the spa continues to run after the “test”
button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged. Do not use
the spa until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced
by a qualified electrician.
Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the
water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control
on the console to the lowest setting (see USING THE
CONTROLS on page 12). The pumping unit will heat
the water as it pumps. Cover the hydrotherapy spa
with the spa cover. The spa cover must be tight
(see SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA on
this page). The water will heat at about 6°F per hour
with the cover on. If you are using the spa indoors,
and the room temperature is maintained at 70°F, it will
take approximately 6 to 8 hours for the water to reach
the set temperature.
The temperature and the water flow can be set or
changed with the controls on the console (see USING
THE CONTROLS on page 12).
SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA
To secure the spa cover, see assembly step 4 on
page 9. Always keep the buckles locked when the
spa is not in use. Keep the keys in a safe place,
out of the reach of children.
