Jacuzzi J-230 Hot Tub User Manual


 
Attention New Spa Owner!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi® spa! The following is a list
of automated functions performed by your spa. These functions are listed below
in an attempt to suppress any operational concerns you may have during the rst
24-hours of ownership! Also listed below are important maintenance recommen-
dations you should observe on a regular basis to protect your new investment.
Automated Operations
Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the rst skimming/
heating cycle turns on pump 1. In J-230 models, an automatic ve minute “blow-
out” function also activates pump 2 for a period of ve minutes to ush all lines.
Then, after ve minutes, pump 2 turns off and pump 1 continues to operate for
the duration of the cycle. Note: this function only occurs during the rst ltration/
heating cycle each day.
Maintain Healthy Spa Water
Always maintain your spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters as
dened by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:
Always maintain your spas lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water.
Refer to page 27 “Water Quality Maintenance” for additional information.
Required Filter Maintenance
Your new spa is equipped with an advanced water ltration system that provides
unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at all times, you
should clean the lter cartridge every three months, or earlier as necessary. See
page 24 for detailed lter cartridge cleaning/replacement instructions.
Required Water Replacement
You should replace the spa’s water every 3 months. The frequency
depends on a number of variables including frequency of use, number of users,
and attention paid to water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a
change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get
the normal
feel or sparkle to the water, even though the key water balance measurements
are all within the proper parameters. See page 27-28 for additional information.
