We recommend you use Cal Spas chemicals only.
Other brands of chemicals may have similar names
and/or usage descriptions but due to manufacturing
differences, use of other chemicals can increase
the likelihood of under- or over-dosing the spa
chemicals. Damage to the spa or spa’s components
from improper chemicals or chemical usage is not
covered under the spa’s warranty.
Prior to lling a spa for the rst time, or after a routine
draining, you will want to follow this start-up plan to
extend water life and performance.

Starting the Spa with Fresh Water
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 about six inches from the top when the spa is not being used.
