Basic Spa Information

The following operating and maintenance instructions
are very important and must be followed carefully. With
the proper care and maintenance, your Cal Spa will
provide you with years of satisfaction and performance.
Do not be afraid to push buttons or turn knobs to
learn about your new Cal Spa, as it is built with quality
materials and excellent craftsmanship.
Your new Cal Spa has been engineered with a high-
powered water pump that pushes water through
various therapy jets, which will relax even the tightest
muscles. In addition to the water pressure, you can add
air into the spa water with air venturi handles located
seat-side that increase the intensity of your massage.
The filtering of this spa is very important. It will
minimize cleaning time and the amount of chemicals
needed to keep your spa water balanced. The two daily
pre-programmed filter cycles of two hours in duration
can be increased to six hour cycles if the need arises.
This can be accomplished through the topside control
panel.
IMPORTANT: Keep the spa covered when not in use!
• Covered spas use less electricity while maintaining
a set temperature.
• Covering your spa will protect your spa's finish
from the sun's ultraviolet rays.
• You are required to keep the spa covered to
maintain warranty coverage.
• Covering your spa helps prevent children from
drowning in the spa.
Your new Cal Spa comes equipped with an electric
heater. Following the directions listed below will ensure
the most efficient operation:
NOTE: This method is only for spa usage under two
hours a week.
2007 Portable Spa Owner's Manual
LTR20071001, Rev. B
• Keep the spa's operating temperature 3˚C below
the desired usage temperature when not in use.
One or two hours before use, set the temperature
to the desired temperature.
• If the spa usage exceeds two hours a week, the set
temperature should remain at the desired usage
temperature.
• The air venturis should be used sparingly. When
open, water temperature drops quite rapidly and
can also dissipate chemicals.
Allowing the water temperature to lower more than 6˚C
below the desired usage temperature and reheating
it prior to usage will cause the heater to operate
longer than it normally would maintaining the desired
temperature. Doing this will increase your operating
cost and makes your heater work more than necessary.
The filter needs to be cleaned or changed on a regular
basis. This process takes only a few minutes and
the result is increased water clarity and equipment
longevity.
Water level is very important to the operation of your
spa. If the water level is too low or too high, your spa
will not operate properly. The water level should be to
the middle of the skimmer area when the spa is not
being used.
We recommend that your spa water be changed every
4 to 6 months. You may find the need to change your
spa water more frequently with heavy use. When
empty, your spa should be cleaned with a non-abrasive
cleaner, such as Cal Spas™ All Surface Cleaner, and
then rinsed thoroughly.
See the section "Cleaning and Maintaining Your Spa"
for instructions on draining your spa.
When filling your spa, always fill through the skimmer
filter canister. Use only regular tap water.
WARNING: DO NOT USE SOFT WATER.
