Air Control(s):
Your hot tub has at least one air control. This air control allows air
to mix with the water that streams out of your jets. Each air control
is responsible for a section of jets or a whirlpool diverter jet. The air
controls are marked “MIN” and “MAX” (minimum and maximum)
in order for the air control to have any effect the jet(s) that it
controls must be on and have water flow.
Deluxe L.E.D. Lighting System:
This L.E.D. Lighting System consists of individual light nodes that
are in coordination with the L.E.D. light housed in the light lens
within the vessel of the spa. The light varies in color and function
by pressing the light button. To turn on the system simply press the
light button once. To turn it off, repress the light button. To change
the color or light function just press the light button once, press it
one more time to shut it off and then after 3-5 seconds press it one
more time. To turn it off, press it once more.
Western Red Cedar
As with any wood product, maintaining the "new" look requires a
consistent schedule of treating your cabinet with a quality CEDAR
sealing product.
Permawood

– Mahogany, Dark Teak, Pecan, Charcoal
Maintenance for Permawood
®
is to use mild soap and water. Some
strong household cleaners/solvents can cause damage/fading to the
surface of the cabinet. All cleaners should be tested on an out-of-the-way
section of cabinet before cleaning.
PermaShell

PermaShell
®
cleans very easy because of its durable poly material. A
spray cleaner that is low in "suds" and is applied then wiped off will
most of the time be sufficient. With stubborn stains or marks, a "soft"
scrub cleaner with very low abrasion (elements) will help when used
with a non-abrasive cleaning pad.
Cover or Hot Tub Lid
See manufacturer’s warranty and maintenance procedures.
When
using a spa or hot tub "shock" water treatment, the cover must be removed
for 30 minutes. Failure to remove cover may cause damage to cover.
Filters
Periodic filter maintenance is required in order to maintain proper
hot tub water quality and performance of equipment supplied with
this hot tub. The manufacturer recommends cleaning your filters with
high pressure water flow once a week. Once a month it is
recommended that filters be soaked in a quality filter cleaning
solution before high pressure spraying of the filter cartridge is
applied. It is important to follow all chemical manufacturers
instructions.
The use of any spa sanitizer with the exception
of dichlor cholorine will negate your warranty.
While we feel that some of the best times to use your spa can be
during the colder months, we understand that there can be a need
for some owners to close their tubs during the winter months.
We feel that winterization should be left to the professionals, but if
done carefully using the following instructions your risk of damage
from freezing can be minimized. Please note, we do not warrant
against freezing damage in a tub that has been winterized, either
by the owner of by a professional service center.
THINGS THAT WILL BE NEEDED:
• 2 gallons of NON-TOXIC (R-V type) antifreeze
• a strong wet/dry vacuum (shop vac)
• a turkey-baster
• 1 or 2 light plastic bowls approximately 5" diameter
• TIME approx. 2 hours
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Drain your tub.
2. With the wet-vac vacuum out any water remaining in the
foot-well. Then with each jet in the open position, vacuum
each jet nozzle until no more water comes out. DO NOT
FORGET the small ozone jet in the foot-well.
3. With the vacuum over the whirlpool jet nozzle(s) and plastic
bowls over the suction covers in the footwell, change it to
each diverter position until there is no more water being
drawn out.
4. Remove your filter, clean it and place in storage until you
restart your tub. Pour NON-TOXIC antifreeze into the filter
canister until it runs out into the foot-well of your tub through
the suction covers.
5. With the turkey-baster, squirt a small amount of NON-TOXIC
antifreeze into each jet. Usually the side jets will take around
one ounce, and the whirlpool jet(s) will take several ounces
(about 5 squirts per whirlpool jet). DO NOT FORGET the
small ozone jet that is located in the foot-well of your tub.
6. Place the cover on the tub, and place a tarp over the tub
and cover. Making sure to securely tie down the tarp. The tarp
will help reduce the amount of weather your tub is exposed
to.
A COUPLE THINGS YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF.
When a tub is drained and left empty, o-rings and pump seals can
dry out and loose their ability to seal properly. You should closely
inspect for small leaks in the equipment area when you do your re-
start. If you are unsure of the location of the o-rings and pump seal,
contact your dealer for help. If replaced early the damage caused by
these failures can be inexpensive to fix.
