in the spa. Allow the water to circulate for five min-
utes. You should now test the pH level of the water.
Use the included test strips to check the pH of the
water. Refer to the instructions on the test strip pack-
aging to see how to use the test strips.
If the level is too low, add one teaspoon from one of
the ÒQUICK pHix It UPÓ packets to the water. Let the
water circulate through the spa jet unit for five min-
utes. Test the pH level again. Repeat until the pH
level is correct.
If the level is too high, add one teaspoon from the
ÒQUICK pHix It DOWNÓ packets to the water. Let the
water circulate through the spa jet unit for five min-
utes. Test the pH level again. Repeat until the pH level
is correct.
Replace the spa cover and allow the water to contin-
ue to heat.
See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 13 for information
concerning proper water maintenance.
THE HEATING SYSTEM OF YOUR SPA
The heating system in your spa is designed to be
economical for long-term use. Combined with the fact
that water absorbs heat very slowly, the effect is that it
will take 1 to 3 days (depending on the room tempera-
ture) to heat the water in the spa. The good news is
that once the water is heated, it will maintain its tem-
perature for a relatively low cost. You can reduce the
waiting period by filling the spa with hot water, but be
aware that the spa holds more water than your water
heater. Make sure the spa cover is on and that it is
tight while the water is heating. The chart below
shows approximate heating times for different air tem-
peratures with a water temperature of 60¡ to 64¡F.
SECURING THE SPA COVER
The spa cover can be
secured by snapping
the latches on the spa
cover into the buckles
on the wood surround.
The buckles can be
locked by inserting the
key and turning it
clockwise a quarter
turn. To unlock the buckles, insert the key and turn it
counterclockwise a quarter turn.
Always keep the buckles locked when the spa is
not in use. Keep the keys in a safe place, out of
the reach of children.
SPA JET UNIT OPERATION
The spa jet unit features four hydro-therapy jets, two
suction inlets, and a filter housing.
The four hydro-therapy jets, located on the front of
the wet side jet pack, focus the water massage on
your back.
The suction vents, located on the bottom side of the
wet side jet pack, pull the water into the spa unit in
order to operate the system. The suction covers
should always be in place over the suction vent.
Never operate the RENEW 815 without the suction
covers in place.
CLEANING THE FILTER
The filter is located on
the right side of the
dry side jet pack,
under the filter cap.
The filter can be
removed for cleaning
and replacement by
removing the filter cap
and then pulling the fil-
ter from the spa jet
unit. IMPORTANT:
You must prime the
spa jet unit (see
instructions earlier
in this section) each
time you have cleaned the filter.
