To reduce the risk of injury:
The water in a spa should never exceed 40°C (104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C (104°F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 38°C (100°F).

Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

People using medications and/or having an adverse medical history should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub.
Check with a doctor before use if pregnant, diabetic, in poor health, or under medical care.

People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.
To avoid injury exercise care when entering or existing the spa or hot tub.

Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness and possible drowning.
Pregnant and possible pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub.

Water temperature in excess of 38°C degree may be injurious to your health.
Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.

Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.
When pregnant, soaking in hot water for long periods can harm your fetus. Measure the water temperature before entering. Do not enter spa if water is hotter than 38°C (100°F). Do not stay in spa for longer than 10 minutes.

Spa heat in conjunction with alcohol, drugs, or medication can cause unconsciousness.
Exit immediately if uncomfortable, dizzy, or sleepy. Spa heat can cause hyperthermia and unconsciousness.

The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 37°C (98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include failure to perceive heat; failure to recognize the need to exit spa or hot tub; unawareness of impending hazard; fetal damage in pregnant women; physical inability to exit the spa or hot tub; and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.

MAINTENANCE AND CHEMICALS

WARNING
Always unplug this product from the electrical outlet before removing, cleaning, servicing or making any adjustments 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 another chemical will control bacteria and viruses present in the spa water. The maintenance of a proper water balance through the 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 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:

Inspect and clean the ﬁ lter cartridge every day, and change the ﬁ lter cartridge every 3 days.

Unscrew the cartridge housing assembly from the spa tub wall and remove the cartridge (see drawing 13).
se a garden hose to rinse off the cartridge. If the cartridge remains soiled and discolored it should be replaced. Keep spare cartridges on hand.
Reinstall the clean cartridge back into the cartridge housing and replace the cartridge housing assembly back onto the spa tub wall.

Change the spa water every 3 days. See “Spa Tub Drainage” and “Spa Tub Cleaning” sections for details.
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.
All occupants must shower before entering the spa.

Water Chemistry Balance
Maintain the spa water pH level between 7.2 and 7.8, total alkalinity level between 80 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:

Dip the entire strip into the water and remove it immediately.
Hold the strip level for 15 seconds. Do not shake excess water from the strip.
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 ﬂ oater 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 ﬂ oater dispenser when the spa is in use. Never let chlorine come in contact with the spa tub if it is not completely dissolved.

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

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 problems, 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.

The result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, shorter ﬁ lter/heater runs, eye & skin irritation, poor chlorine efﬁ science.
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 the total alkalinity before
adjusting the pH level.
The result if too low – Corroded metals, eye & skin irritation. Low alkalinity will cause the pH to be unstable. The result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, shorter

later/heater runs eye & skin irritation, high chlorine demand.
Calcium Hardness (CaCO3): refers to the amount of calcium and magnesium dissolved in the water. Result if too low – Difﬁ culty balancing water, corrosion of metal
components, eye & skin irritation and water foaming.
The result if too high – Scale formation, cloudy water, eye & skin irritation, difﬁ culty balancing water and ﬁ lter/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):
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.SI = pH+TF+CF+AF-12.1 Where: TF = Temperature Factor; CF = Calcium Hardness Factor; AF = Total Alkalinity Factor

SPA WATER CHEMISTRY AND BALANCE (continued)
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 ﬁ rst, as chlorine will affect the TA test result. If the TA level (and not the pH) is higher than 120 ppm, to lower the TA level, you add muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) or sodium bisulfate. If the TA level is lower than 60 ppm, you add sodium bicarbonate. For example (for 4 adults), if the TA level is 180 ppm, the desired decrease is 60 ppm, from below chart, you need to add 0.269 Lb (121 g) of sodium bisulfate or 0.101 qt (96 ml) of muriatic acid. If the test strip color is between 180 ppm and 240 ppm, and close to 180 ppm, you can also add 0.269 Lb (121 g) of sodium bisulfate or 0.101 qt (96 ml) of muriatic acid. If the reading is more than 240 ppm, you can add sodium bisulfate or muriatic acid to the water drop by drop until the test strip indicates a 240 ppm reading, then add 0.528 Lb (238 g) of sodium bisulfate or 0.202 qt (192 ml) of muriatic acid.

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

Lowering Total Alkalinity
Amount of Sodium Bisulfate to lower Total Alkalinity

Raising Total Alkalinity

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, you can adjust it using the following chart.

SPA WATER CHEMISTRY AND BALANCE (continued)

Calcium Hardness Adjustment
Use the included test strips to check the water hardness level and adjust it following the below chart.

Lowering Calcium Hardness
If your household water supply is treated with a softener, mix the spa hard water with the soft water according to the water volume ratio chart to lower the calcium hardness:

Raising Calcium Hardness
If the calcium hardness level in the spa water is lower than 100 ppm, add calcium chloride into the spa water.

WARNING
Muriatic acid is a caustic chemical and the liquid solution of sodium bisulfate (NaHSO4) is highly acidic. Handle all chemicals with care and wear extra personnel protective equipment including goggles and gloves. It is very important not to splash acid onto your skin or clothing, or into your eyes.

MAINTENANCE

Spa Tub Drainage

Turn off the spa control unit.
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).

Remove the drain valve cap from the outside of the spa tub and attach the drain valve adaptor to the drain valve (see drawing 14).
From the inside of the spa tub, open the drain valve cap, water will start ﬂ owing out from the garden hose.
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).

Attached the inﬂ ation hose (7) to the air blower inﬂ ation outlet on the control unit.
Turn on the spa and press the button, aim the inﬂ ation 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).
Use a clean towel to wipe up any remaining water and moisture on the spa tub and spa control unit.
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 ﬁ lter 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 reﬁ lling with clean water.

IMPORTANT
Do not use steel wool, hard brushes or abrasive cleaners.

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:

Make sure the spa tub is deﬂ ated, open the air valve cap and insert the wrench (22) into the air valve body (see drawing 18).
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
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 ﬂ at screwdriver to lock or unlock the buckles. 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.

Spa Tub and Cover Air Bladder Repair
Use the enclosed repair patch to repair any puncture:

Clean and dry the area to be repaired thoroughly.
Remove the patch backing paper and press patch ﬁ rmly over the puncture. Smooth out the surface to remove any air bubbles under the patch.

IMPORTANT
The ambient temperatures of air have an effect on the spa tub internal pressure. Air inside of the spa tub may expand and contract with varying temperatures leading to reduce pressure inside of the spa tub. If this occurs, simply use the provided pressure gauge to check the internal air pressure and add more air if necessary.
