SET THE MAINTENANCE LEVEL
Determining the proper maintenance level for your hot tub
is an extremely important step. DO NOT use your hot tub
during this step as it will slow the process. Be patient. Make
sure you follow steps 1 through 4 of the Before Starting
section before performing the following steps.
1. Power up your hot tub and activate the system by press-
ing the Boost key.
2. Make sure your maintenance level is set to 15. To adjust
the level, press and hold the Program key for 2 seconds,
then use the Up and Down keys to adjust the mainte-
nance level. The bromine generation rate ranges from
1 to 50, where 1 corresponds to the system’s minimum
generating rate and 50 corresponds to the maximum
generation rate allowed by
the system.
OPTIONAL: Set the boost to level 2 to help build up the
bromine bank faster and speed up the startup process.
3. Use a test kit to check the bromine level every 12-24
hours*. The bromine level should be between 3-5 PPM. If
the bromine level is within that range for 3 consecutive
days, you are ready to use your hot tub. If the bromine
level is above 5 PPM, decrease the maintenance level. If
the bromine level is below 3 PPM, increase the mainte-
nance level.
4. Repeat step 3 until bromine is stable between 3 and 5
PPM for 3 consecutive days.
Do NOT increase/decrease maintenance level in steps
greater than 2.
Setting the maintenance level to a value that's too high
can cause damage to your equipment.
Check bromine level and always test water before
entering the hot tub.
If the bromine level is higher than 5 PPM, lower the
maintenance level and turn off the system until the
bromine level is back below 5 PPM Then, restart the
system and continue monitoring the bromine level.
To lower the bromine level, expose your hot tub water to the
sun and activate all pumps for a few cycles.
*Testing bromine levels with FAS-DPD drop count method
is more accurate than using test strips. Bromine FAS-DPD is
available at www.geckodepot.com under number 0699-300008.
DETERMINE THE BOOST LEVEL
Every time you use your hot tub, activate the boost mode. As
a rule of thumb, the boost level corresponds to the number
of bathers using the hot tub. For example, activate the boost
level to 2 if two bathers are entering the hot tub.
1. With the system in maintenance mode, press the Boost
key to activate the Boost mode.
2. The keypad display will show a numeric value that
corresponds to the selected level. There are 8 possible
levels available with the boost mode. Set the boost level
by using the up and down arrow to select the number of
bathers that use the hot tub.
3. Confirm the selection by pressing the Boost key again or
wait 5 seconds for the system to save the desired level
and activate the Boost cycle.
Note: The in.clear keeps the last used boost level in
memory.
4. At the end of the boost period, verify that the bromine
level has returned to the 3-5 PPM range. If the bromine
level is too low or too high after the Boost period, the
boost level should be adjusted the next time the hot tub
is used. For example, if bromine level is higher than 5 PPM
after a boost of 2, lower the boost level to 1 the next time.
Repeat these steps until you are able to determine the
ideal boost level for your usage.
Note: Boost levels depend on the number of bathers
using the hot tub. We recommend you validate the Boost
level after each use to determine the ideal boost level for
all numbers of bathers.
Changing the water temperature setpoint of your
hot tub, or using the economy mode, could require a
change in the maintenance level of your in.clear. Lower
water temperatures may require a lower maintenance
level than higher temperature setpoints. Please check
your bromine level when changing your temperature
setpoint or using the economy mode of your hot tub.
Never adjust the maintenance level of your in.clear
without allowing at least 24 hours following the end
of the boost period. Boost cycles allow the residual
bromine level to stabilize. Bromine levels outside
the 3-5 PPM range may result from pollutants following
usage.
Linked version only: If the pack connected to the in.clear
detects hot tub use (pumps, blower, or lights active) for 5
minutes without a boost, it will automatically start a boost at
the last used level. This is a security feature only, and should
not be used to replace the boost setting. Incorrect boost
settings for the bather load could damage hot tub parts and/
or be hazardous to bathers.
