IMPORTANT CHEMICAL SAFETY PROCEDURES
1. Always keep chemicals out of reach of children.
2. Read product labels carefully prior to use.
3. When dissolving, always add chemicals to water, do not add water to
chemicals. Some dry chemicals should be dissolved prior to adding them
to the spa. Using a clean container, dip some water from the spa. Mix
until dissolved, then add to circulating water.
4. CAUTION: Do not mix chemicals together. Add them separately to the
spa water.
5. All chemical products should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area
where the average temperature does not exceed 90°F (32°C). Keep
storage area clean of debris such as rags, newspaper, and combustible
materials.
6. Keep chemicals away from open flame or other heat source. Do not
smoke near chemicals. If a dry chlorine chemical fire should occur, use
water only. Do not use a dry chemical fire extinguisher to attempt to put
out the fire.
7. When adding chemicals, always keep the water circulating in the spa
with jets in a downward circular pattern for better chemical distribution.
Add chemicals to the spa water one at a time. Allow several minutes be-
tween any new chemical additions using the jet action to evenly distrib-
ute throughout the spa.
8. It is important to leave the spa cover open for 20-30 minutes while
shock treating your spa to avoid damage. Do not leave spa unattended
while cover is open. Damage such as discoloration or brittle vinyl due to
chemical damage is not covered under the warranty.
9. After adding chemicals, wait the amount of time recommended on the
chemical container before retesting your water for an accurate reading.
Retest your spa water before using.
10. If you have any questions or concerns about the correct procedures for
handling chemicals, please contact your authorized Marquis
CAUTION: Damage to the spa surface and equipment due to the use of
trichlor chlorine, or other harsh chemicals not recommended by Marquis are
not covered under warranty.
WATER CARE
There are three things necessary for clean safe water:
1. CIRCULATE: Water has to be circulated regularly; it can not be stagnant.
2. FILTER: Water has to be filtered to remove particulates and debris.
3. SANITIZE: Water has to be sanitized to kill organisms like algae, bacteria
and virus.
It is critical to maintain proper water balance to protect the spa heater
and other components from damage. Damage to the spa surface and
equipment caused by poor chemical or harsh chemical treatment is not
covered under the warranty. Discoloration of jet faces, valves and controls
are an indication of poor chemical maintenance or exposure to the sun.
