CUSTOMIZING YOUR MASSAGE
Your Caldera spa offers numerous ways for you to customize your massage experience. Experimentation is the best way to find what feels best to you. Try sitting in
different seats, adjusting the diverter valves, air controls, and jet nozzles and turning each pump on or off.
DIVERTER VALVES
The diverter valves on your spa allow you to direct the flow of water from the pumps to
various combinations of jets. The functions of these diverter valves can best be learned
by experimentation as follows:
1. Set all air controls to the “ON” position by rotating counterclockwise.
2. Turn on both pumps.
3. Turn the handle on each diverter valve and see which groups of jets are affected.
(Note that you can adjust the diverter valves to any position between the two
possible extremes to achieve the jet pressure that feels best to you.)
IMPORTANT: Your spa is not designed to provide full power to all jets when the diverter
valves are in the “mid” position. However, with the diverter valve in this position, you
may increase the power to selected jets by rotating the face of the Vigo and VigoTec
jets to close the ones that are not in use.
TIP: Turn both pumps on and place the diverter valves to the “Mid-Position”. Then
experiment with each of the air controls to see their effect.
WATERFALL VALVE
The Geneva
TM
, Niagara
®
, Tahitian
®
, Elation
®
, Aspire
®
, Moorea
®
, Hawaiian, and Martinique
®
are equipped with the Acquarella
®
Waterfall feature (NOTE: The waterfall on the Moorea, Hawaiian, and Martinique does not light up). It is activated by
pressing on JETS2 (either low or high speed). The flow is regulated by turning the Acquarella Waterfall valve located on the
inside wall of the spa. The Olympia spa waterfall feature is activated by pressing JETS to activate the two-speed pump
and turning the valve, located on the front interior wall, counterclockwise. The flow is regulated by turning the waterfall
valve to the desired position.
ATLAS
®
NECK JET VALVE
The Geneva, Niagara, Tahitian
®
, and Elation spas are equipped with 4 directional neck jets located in the
Optomassage Seat. The flow of the neck jets is regulated by turning the Atlas NeckJet valve on the inside
wall of the spa.
AIR CONTROLS
Each jet system has its own air control. These allow you to change the power of the jets by regulating the
amount of air that is mixed with the water coming out of the jets.
HYDRO JETS
Note: All Hydro jet images are shown with stainless steel escutcheons.
AdaptaFlo
TM
Jet - This jet allows you to redirect the jet stream by changing the position of the nozzle.
AdaptaSsage
TM
Jet - This jet provides a rotating massage pattern, (optional on Olympia, Cumberland
®
, Aventine
®
).
The face plates in the AdaptaFlo jets and the AdaptaSsage jets are interchangeable. To remove a AdaptaSsage face
plate, turn it counter-clockwise until it stops turning. Turn the face once more until you hear a clicking noise. Push the
face in, and then pull it straight off. Install the face plate by snapping it into place. Additional AdaptaSsage dual-port
nozzles are available from your Caldera dealer.
Both the AdaptaFlo and AdaptaSsage jets allow you to regulate the force of the massage. Rotate the fascia ring clockwise to reduce the force, or counter-clockwise to
increase the force. Notice that turning off the flow to some jets increases the flow to the other jets. To avoid damage to your spa’s plumbing and components, do not
turn off more than half of these jets at the same time.
Position 1 - The full flow
is directed to one series
of jets.
Mid-Position -
Positioning the diverter
at any point between
position one and two
divides the flow between
the jet systems.
Position 2 - The full flow
is directed to a second
series of jets.
