Draining and Disassembling your Spa
Empty and clean your Voyager spa every 2 to 3
months. Unplug the GFCI and proceed as follows:
1. Use a hose to siphon the water or a
submersible pump. Make sure not to allow the
suction end of the hose or the submersible
pump to contact the vinyl. This may cause
damage to the liner not covered under the
warranty. Note that you can utilize one of the
jets to prime a garden hose. Place the hose in
front of a jet until the water starts coming out of
the other end. Place the hose at the bottom of
the spa and unplug the GFCI immediately.
2. Remove the Therapy Module and loosen the
lower union nut of the pump. All the water
remaining in the module will run out.
3. Disassemble the rest of the spa by reversing the
Assembly Instructions outlined on page 6.
4. Store your spa in a dry and warm place.
Water Level
Always keep the water level about 1" above the
highest jet. This will ensure that the jets will not
spray water out of the spa.
DAILY
Check water level.
Keep water 1" above the highest jet.
Check and adjust chlorine level to 1.0 to 3.0 ppm if chlorine is used as
sanitizer. If Bromine is used, check weekly. Sodium dichlor is the
recommended type of sanitizer.
WEEKLY
Test the spa water using 3-way water test strips
Adjust pH and total alkalinity. PH: 7.4 to 7.6 (ideal 7.6). Total Alkalinity:
80 to 120 PPM
Maintain 1.0 to 3.0 ppm bromine or free chlorine.
Add 1 ounce of SPA DEFENDER to prevent calcium build up. Calcium
hardness: 50 to 150 ppm.
Shock treat with 2 ounces of RENEW, a non chlorine shock
MONTHLY
Inspect and clean the spa filter cartridge.
It is very important to maintain
your spa filter cartridge and keep it clean and free of particles which can
restrict water flow. If the filter is not cleaned on a regular basis, the filter may
clog and restrict water flow, which causes improper filtration and poor jet
performance. See "Filter Cleaning" instructions.
Drain your spa. Follow the procedures outlined in "Draining Your Spa" page
12 and clean it following the procedures in " Cleaning The Spa Liner" page
11. When refilling your spa, be sure to follow the procedures outlined in
"Priming the Pump" page 8 and in "Balancing Your Spa Water" page 13-14.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Caution must be used with the latter
approach. In the event of electrical power
interruption, regardless of the cause, the
heater and pump will stop operating and
freeze protection will be lost,
possibly resulting in freeze damage to the
Therapy Module.
