Aruba Spa 2003 Serenade Hot Tub User Manual


 
INITIAL START UP PROCEDURES
(dosages are for 360 gallons (1620 litres) of water)
1. Use your test strips or test kit to test your fill water for pH,
total alkalinity to determine any water balance adjustments
necessary.
2. When filling your spa with water, add STAIN & SCALE to
protect your spa against staining and scale formation on the
spa walls and on the heater element.
3. You must balance your water so that it is neither alkaline
(scale forming) nor acidic (corrosive). Balanced spa water
should be between 7.4 - 7.6 on the pH scale, with total alka-
linity in the range of 125 - 150 ppm. Use SPA INCREASE (pH
up) or SPA DECREASE (pH down) as needed to adjust the
pH. Add alkalinity increaser to raise total alkalinity.
WARNING
Improper chemical maintenance can
damage the spa surface and/or equipment,
and will void the warranty.
WARNING
Make sure you dilute all chemicals with
spa water before adding them to the spa.
Adding full strength chemicals to the spa
may damage the spa surface and will void
the warranty.
IMPORTANT
You must use either chlorine or bromine
based chemicals. You may change from
chlorine to bromine without emptying the
tub. If you are changing from bromine to
chlorine you then must empty the tub and
start with fresh water. Never mix chlorine
with bromine out of the water.
