5. Minimize Heat Loss and Energy Consumption Advice

1. Always keep the spa cover on to minimize heat loss during heating of the spa between uses (but not while it is being used).
   Ensure the cover is fitted tightly, as per manufacturer’s instructions to maximize insulation.
   It shall be recommended that the cover, when not in use, should be kept off the ground to retain its cleanliness (particularly the surface in close proximity to the water spa water surface).
   The cover should be stored in an appropriate location, where it cannot be damaged, or cause damage.

2. Check the set water temperature and consider lowering it for the times when the spa will typically not be in use.

3. Depending on external conditions, consider turning off the heater entirely if not using the spa for an extended period of time (where the spa provides this option, but still maintains residual disinfection/pH-values).

4. Consider that the comfortable temperature range during use may be lower than the maximum safe temperature.

5. Use the included insulating ground cloth underneath the spa to minimize heat loss through the bottom of the spa.

6. Maintain clean filters to preserve appropriate working conditions for the pump and avoid unnecessary water replacement and re-heating.

7. Maintenance and Chemicals

  WARNING

Always unplug this product from the electrical outlet before removing, cleaning, servicing or making any adjustment to the product.

Water Sanitation
The spa owner must regularly check and keep the spa water sanitized with scheduled maintenance (daily, if necessary). Adding sanitizer and other chemical will control bacteria and viruses present in the spa water. The maintenance of a proper water balance through appropriate use of sanitizers is the single most important factor in maximizing the life and appearance of the spa tub as well as ensuring clean, healthy and safe water. Proper technique is important for water testing and treating the spa water. See your pool/spa professional for chemical, sanitizer, test kits and testing procedures questions.

CAUTION:  ALWAYS FOLLOW THE CHEMICAL MANUFACTURER’S DIRECTIONS, AND THE HEALTH AND HAZARD WARNINGS.

Do not add chemicals if the spa is occupied. This can cause skin or eye irritation.  Concentrated chlorine solutions can damage the spa tub. In no event is Intex Recreation Corp., Intex Development Co. Ltd., their related companies, authorized agents and service centers, retailers or employees liable to the buyer or any other party for costs associated with the loss of spa water, chemicals or water damage.

Maintenance of Spa Water and Cartridge
Protect all the spa occupants from possible water-related illnesses by keeping the spa water clean and sanitized.
Always practice good hygiene. To ensure proper spa water quality follow these procedures:
1.  Inspect and clean the filter cartridge every day, and change the filter cartridge every 3 days.
a.  Unscrew the cartridge housing assembly from the spa tub wall and remove the cartridge  (see drawing 13).
b.  Use a garden hose to rinse off the cartridge. If the cartridge remains soiled and discolored it should be replaced. Keep spare cartridges on hand.
c.  Reinstall the clean cartridge back into the cartridge housing and replace the cartridge housing assembly back onto the spa tub wall.
2.  Change the spa water every 2 weeks. See “Spa Tub Drainage” and “Spa Tub Cleaning” sections for details.
3.  Use spa chemicals to maintain proper water chemistry. Spa damage resulting from misuse of chemicals and mismanagement of spa water is not covered by the warranty.
4.  All occupants must shower before entering the spa.

Water Chemistry Balance
Maintain the spa water pH level between 6.8 and 7.6, total alkalinity level between 60 and 120 ppm and free chlorine level between 2 to 4 ppm. Use the included test strips to test the spa water chemistry before each use of the spa and continue to test the water no less than once a week.
The Test Strips can test the “Free Chlorine”, “pH”, “Total Alkalinity” and “Calcium Hardness” levels at the same time:

1.  Dip the entire strip into the water and remove immediately.
2.  Hold the strip level for 15 seconds. Do not shake excess water from the strip.
3.  Compare the strip pad to the color chart on the packaging label. If necessary, adjust the chemical level in the pool water.

NOTE:  Check the expiry date of the test kit as the test results may be inaccurate if the kit is used after that date.
Low pH will damage the spa tub and pump. Damage resulting from chemical imbalance is not covered by the warranty.

Use the included chemical floater dispenser to administer chlorine [chemical tablet size: less than 1″ (2.5 cm) diameter] into the spa water. Add 1 tablet into the dispenser. Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s directions. Remove the chemical floater dispenser when the spa is in use.
Never let chlorine come in contact with the spa tub if it is not completely dissolved.
Flush all pipes with treated water by activating the bubble function for an hour a day.

IMPORTANT:  Press the   button on the spa control panel to turn on the bubble air blower and help dissolve the chemicals into the water.
Never mix chemicals together. Add the chemicals to the spa water separately. Thoroughly dissolve each chemical before adding another one to the water.

SPA WATER CHEMISTRY AND BALANCE

(preferably less than 0.5)
Nitrate concentration above that of fill water in mg/l| max. difference of 20 compared to the fill water concentration
Total organic carbon (TOC) in mg/l  d| max. 4.0
Redox potential against Ag/AgCI 3.5 M KCI in mV| min. 650
pH value  e,f| 6.8 to 7.6
Free active chlorine (without cyanuric acid) in mg/l| 0.3 to 1.5  g
Bromine in mg/l| 2.0 to 4.0  h
When using alternative/additional disinfectants other appropriate parameters may be considered.

a  Consult national regulations and guidelines for any deviations.
b  Natural water sources may introduce water colouration.
c  Intentional water colouration is excluded.
d  When using organic compounds this value may be higher.
e  Subject to the flocculant(s) used (if any).
f  When pH is greater than 7.5 the free active chlorine is less than 50%.
g  Commonly recommended concentration of free chlorine in aquatic settings is 0.3 to 1.5 mg/l. However, in order to ensure water hygiene in the spa setting where the water is heated and the water volume to user ratio is low, it is acceptable to temporarily exceed this concentration with manual dosage, provided the health of the user is not compromised. Therefore, a range of 2.0 to 4.0 mg/l is acceptable as also recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Center for Disease Control. Do not use cyanuric acid.
h  Temporary exceeding due to manual dosage and low water volume to user ratio is acceptable, provided the health of the user is not compromised.

Particular care should be taken with chemical treatment of the water with special attention to disinfectant limits and control of pH values. The use of ozone or UV, where applicable, shall always be accompanied by residual disinfection with an oxidising biocide (e.g. Chlorine or Bromine or other biocide products, compatible with manufacturer’s recommendations).
Improper use of chemicals may result in degradation, damage and other imperfections of the spa surface and other spa components (typically discolouration of materials, corrosion of metal parts).

Free chlorine:  is the chlorine residual present in the spa water.
Result if too low – Inadequate level of disinfection.

Result if too high – cause odor problem, skin & eye irritation, corroded metals and other materials.

pH:  a value that indicates how acidic or basic the spa water is.
Result if too low – Corroded metals, eye & skin irritation, and destruction of total alkalinity.
Result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, shorter filter/heater runs, eye & skin irritation, poor chlorine efficiency.

Total Alkalinity (TA):  indicates the degree of the water’s resistance to pH change. It determines the speed and ease of pH change, so always adjust total alkalinity before adjusting the pH level.
Result if too low – Corroded metals, eye & skin irritation. Low alkalinity will cause the pH to be unstable.
Result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, shorter filter/heater runs, eye & skin irritation, high chlorine demand.

Calcium Hardness (CaCO 3): refers to the amount of calcium and magnesium dissolved in the water.
Result if too low – Difficulty balancing water, corrosion of metal components, eye & skin irritation and water foaming.
Result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, eye & skin irritation, difficulty balancing water and filter/heater inefficiency.

Saturation Index (SI):  temperature, calcium hardness concentration, total alkalinity and pH represent the main factors influencing scale formation. The tendency of water to either form scale or corrode is indicated by the Saturation Index (SI):

SI = pH+TF+CF+AF-12.1
*Where: TF = Temperature Factor; CF = Calcium Hardness Factor; AF = Total Alkalinity Factor

Water Temperature| TF| Calcium
Hardness (ppm)| CF| Total
Alkalinity (ppm)| AF
---|---|---|---|---|---
(°C)| (°F)
8| 46| 0.2| 75| 1.5| 50| 1.7
12| 54| 0.3| 100| 1.6| 75| 1.9
16| 61| 0.4| 150| 1.8| 100| 2.0
19| 66| 0.5| 200| 1.9| 150| 2.2
24| 75| 0.6| 250| 2.0| 200| 2.3

34| 93| 0.8| 400| 2.2| 400| 2.6
40| 104| 0.9| 500| 2.3| –| –

Test the water pH, Temperature, Calcium Hardness and Total Alkalinity levels. Use the equivalent Factors in the SI equation.
SI = 0, Balance
If SI > 0, Scaling or cloudy water condition.
If SI < 0, Corrosive to metals or eye & skin irritating condition.
The SI is considered satisfactory if the value is within -0.3 to +0.3 range. Zero being perfect.

SPA Water Adjustment
How to adjust the spa water chemistry when the levels are off the range.
CAUTION:  Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s directions, and the health and hazard warnings.

Total Alkalinity (TA) Adjustment
Remove the spa cover to aerate the water and use the included test strips to check the chemistry level.
Ensure the chlorine level in the water is between 2-4 ppm first, as chlorine will affect the TA test result.
If the TA level (and not the pH) is higher than 120 ppm, add appropriate chemical product to lower the TA level.
If the TA level is lower than 60 ppm, add appropriate chemical product to raise the TA level.

NOTE:  After adjustment, retest the water after 24 hours and adjust again if necessary.

pH Adjustment
After the total alkalinity has been lowered to 120 ppm or raised to 80 ppm and the pH is still high or low, add appropriate chemical product to adjust the pH level between 6.8 and 7.6.

Calcium Hardness Adjustment
Use the included test strips to check the water hardness level and adjust it with appropriate chemical product.

  WARNING

Handle all chemicals with care and wear extra personnel protective equipment including goggle and gloves. It is very important not to splash acid onto your skin or clothing, or into your eyes.

MAINTENANCE

Spa Tub Drainage

1.  Turn off the spa control unit.
2.  Connect the drain valve adaptor to a garden hose and point the other end of the garden hose to a suitable draining area  (see drawing 14).
3.  Remove the drain valve cap from outside of the spa tub and attach the drain valve adaptor to the drain valve  (see drawing 14).
4.  From inside of the spa tub, open the drain valve cap, water will start flowing out from the garden hose.
5.  When the water stops draining, disconnect the spa control unit from the spa tub wall. Lift the spa tub wall from the side opposite the drain, leading any remaining water to the drain and emptying the spa completely (see drawing 15).
6.  Attached the inflation hose  (7)  to the air blower inflation outlet on the control unit.
7.  Turn on the spa and press the   button, aim the inflation hose at the inlet/outlets on the spa tub and spa control unit to dry out any water in the piping system  (see drawings 16 & 17).
8.  Use a clean towel to wipe up any remaining water and moisture on the spa tub and spa control unit.
9.  Ensure the spa tub and spa control unit are thoroughly dried.
NOTE:  The enclosed plugs  (15)  can be used to cover the water inlet and outlet connectors from the inside of the spa tub to prevent water from flowing out.

Spa Tub Cleaning
If dirt is visible in the water or water becomes cloudy and proper water chemistry does not clear it up, change the water and clean the spa tub.
See “Spa Tub Drainage” section on how to drain the spa.
While empty, remove the cartridge housing from inside of the spa tub wall, clean and/or replace the filter cartridge. Use a sponge and mild soap solution to wipe away any soil or stains on the inside of the spa wall. Rinse thoroughly before refilling with clean water.
IMPORTANT:  Do not use steel wool, hard brushes or abrasive cleaners.

Biofilm Removal
See your local spa professional for biofilm removal products and advice.

Spa Tub Air Valve Fastening
Check the spa tub air valve for leakage and tightness before use. If air is leaking from the air valve, use the provided wrench  (22)  to tighten the air valve as follow:
1.  Make sure the spa tub is deflated, open the air valve cap and insert the wrench  (22)  into the air valve body  (see drawing 18).
2.  With one hand, hold the backside of the air valve base from the inside of the spa tub wall and turn the wrench  (22)  clockwise.
IMPORTANT:  Never adjust the air valve base when the spa is in use or filled with water. Only use the air valve wrench if the air valve is loose or there is leakage around air valve base. Do not over tighten the air valve: over tightening can damage the valve. Just ensure the air valve is snug and not leaking.

Spa Cover
Inspect the spa cover regularly for leaks, premature wear and tear, damage, or signs of deterioration. Never use a worn or damaged cover: it will not provide the level of protection required to prevent unsupervised access to the spa by a child.
Clean the cover inside and outside periodically using a sponge and a suitable solution that includes adequate disinfection (10 mg per liter of free chlorine). Do not use steel wool, hard brushes or abrasive cleaners.

Spa Surround
Barefoot areas and relaxing areas around the spa shall be cleaned on a regular basis. No cleaning water may flow into the spa or spa water cycle. The dirt and cleaning agents shall be rinsed carefully to drain in the spa surround.

READ BEFORE YOU START!

NOTE:  This quick start guide provides important and useful tips before you start the setup of your spa. However, it does not address all aspects of spa installatior and use, and you are still required to read, understand, and follow the owner’s manual for proper installation, maintenance, and safe use of your spa.

Power : This product draws a minimum of 13 AMPS. Most household circuits are 13 to 16 AMPS. If the circuit breaker trips, please check that no other appliances or other large loads are on the same circuit as the spa. Never use an extension cord. Unfold the line cord prior to use. Never place the plug on combustible materials.

Water Heating : This heater when properly set up and running will raise the water temperature by 2°C per hour PROVIDED the spa cover is properly in place. Depending on the starting temperature of the Spa water and external air temperature, it will take some time to heat up. If the starting temperature of your tap water is 22°C and you wanted to raise it by 16° C to 38°C, the heating time would be 16°C/2°C per hour = 8 hours. For subsequent use the heating time can be shortened by maintaining an idle temperature in the spa (see HEATING AND WATER TEMPERATURE section). Be sure to keep the cover on the Spa when not in use.

RCD : This product is provided with a RCD located at the end of the power cord. The RCD must be tested before each use. Do NOT use the Spa if the RCD does not function properly. (See owner’s manual for proper testing of RCD instructions).

Filter Cartridge : Keep the spa water properly sanitized to extend the life of the cartridge. Refer to the owner’s manual for detailed information on spa water chemistry and balance.

UNFOLDING AND INFLATING YOUR SPA:

•  When you unfold the inflatable spa tub you may notice the smell of the material that is normal for a new product out of the box. It is therefore recommended to inflate the product and leave it outdoors for a day to air and allow the new product smell to dissipate somewhat before filling the spa with water.
• Spread the ground cloth with the bubbles facing down over the cleared area where you intend to setup your spa.
•  For spa inflation, familiarize yourself with the spring loaded valve on the spa tub and the inflation outlet on the control box unit to assure fast and proper inflation.

Inflation outlet tips:

• The larger end of the inflation hose attaches to the air outlet at the back of the control base unit (see owner’s manual for drawings and further details).
• To attach the inflation hose to the air outlet, flip up the control base side cover to reveal the air blower inflation outlet. Pull out the latch to open the cover, insert the hose adaptor with hose and reattach the latch to the hose adaptor to secure it in place.
• When inflation is complete, release the latch, pull out the inflation hose, and secure the latch back onto the outlet

NOTE:  To avoid over-inflation, some air will escape through the bottom air-bubble outlet of the control base during inflation. This is normal.

Spring loaded valve tips:

• Upon removing the valve cap, note the spring loaded pin in the center of the valve. For inflation, the spring loaded pin should be in the up/raised position (closed position of the valve) as the air pressure of the pump will push the air through the valve during inflation. Check the valve pin and assure it is in the up/raised position before starting inflation.
• The pin can be pressed down and locked in the recessed position by pressing and turning it 90° clockwise with your finger – this is the open position of the valve that allows the air to flow out freely and that is used for deflation.
•  To properly attach the inflation nozzle of the hose (the smaller end of the hose), push it into the valve and twist it clockwise until it locks with the valve (you may hear a click). To remove the nozzle upon inflation, twist it counterclockwise and pull it out of the valve.
• Once the spa tub is properly inflated, make sure to close the valve cap for the proper airtight seal.

HEATING AND WATER TEMPERATURE:

• Filling with heated water: You may use heated water to fill the spa, which will shorten the initial heat-up time. However, make sure not to use water exceeding the normal spa operating temperatures which are not to exceed 40°C. Water over 40°C will turn off the heating unit and is not considered safe. Always check the water temperature in your spa before use and refer to the owner’s manual for detailed information on safe use.
• Maintaining idle water temperature: Your PureSpa is like any household appliance or a fixed spa, and for continuous use you may choose to set a certain idle temperature to be maintained in the spa when not in use. This will allow shorter heat-up time for when you decide to use it. For example, maintaining the spa water temperature at 30°C will allow reaching 38°C in approximately 4 hours. Remember, the water temperature increase is approximately 2°C per hour of heating (may vary depending on outside temperature and conditions), so plan your spa use accordingly.

NOTE:  The Spa has a safety shut-off feature which will turn off the heating unit after 72 hours of continuous heating if the set temperature is not reached within that period. This may occur in cold external conditions that may prevent the set temperature from being reached. In that case your spa heating unit will shut off and display code “END”, requiring pushing the temperature setting button and re-setting the temperature to re-start the heating unit. Try a lower more reachable temperature for the given conditions, which will not require re-starting the heating unit after 72 hours.

• Water temperature during use: When you are using the spa, the water temperature will naturally decrease slightly over time. The expected temperature decrease can be anywhere between 1°C and 2°C per hour depending on external conditions. As long as the heating unit is turned on with a set temperature, it will start heating the water automatically when water temperature drops by 1-2°C from the set temperature.
  Example: If your set temperature is 39°C, the heater will not come on until the temperature drops to 37°C. If you should wish to heat it back up sooner, you can simply re-set the heater by turning it off and back on to start heating to your preferred temperature.

SPA COVER:

• The cover is an important part of your spa as it is crucial for heating up the water and maintaining the temperature when spa is not in use. Furthermore, it is a crucial safety element for prevention of unauthorized access to the spa especially by children.
• Note that the attachment buckles of the cover are locking buckles. Two keys are provided in the plastic bag with the manual and other accessories. Each buckle is marked with “locked” and “unlocked” symbols for easy operation: put the key into the slot on the buckle and turn it to the appropriate position to lock or unlock the buckle respectively.
• To assure safety from unauthorized access, always put the cover on when spa is not in use and lock all buckles. Always keep the keys out of reach of children.
• In case you misplace the keys, you can use any similar size flat screwdriver to lock or unlock the buckles.
