Owners Manual - Spa Boy®
Understanding Spa Boy®
• Ensure the new Electrode has the small O-ring correctly seated into the groove that is positioned around the
electrical pin.
• Inspect the male electrical connection plug in the Niche to ensure it is not corroded. If corroded the dealer will
need to be contacted as the Spa Boy Niche Assembly will require replacement.
• Apply Dielectric Grease to the electrical pin on the new Spa Boy Electrode.
• Insert the Spa Boy Electrode back into the Niche and turning clockwise screw the Electrode into the Niche
until tight and the locating hole has aligned (approximately 4 revolutions).
• Insert the set screw into the Electrode and using a Phillips screwdriver tighten the set screw.
• Tuck the wiring loom back into the Housing.
• Screw the Niche back into its Housing ensuring the Electrode points upwards when tight. This ensures maxi-
mum output from the Electrode.
• Turn the breaker back on to repower your spa.
Question 2 How do I Care for the Spa Boy Sensor? The Spa Boy Sensor must never be permitted to freeze
and must always remain in contact with water. If the Sensor freezes or is not left in contact with water at all
times the sensor will fail and will require replacement!
Question 3 How do I Care for the Spa Boy Sensor when Draining the Spas Water? As the Spa Boy Sensor
must always remain in contact with water, when the spas water is being drained the Spa Boy Sensor Housing
must be sealed before the water is drained. The Spa Boy Sensor Housing is usually located in the foot well or
other area of the spa that is not in the way of bathers or impacted by water turbulence from jets. The Spa Boy
Housing has a Grate screwed into the front of the Housing. Steps for caring for your Spa Boy Sensor when
draining the spas water:
• Find your 2" (50mm) Spa Boy Housing Plug that was installed in the Spa Boy Sensor Housing when your spa
was first delivered.
• Check to ensure the Spa Boy Housing Plug has an O-ring in place, which is used to generate a seal between
the plug and housing when the plug is screwed into the housing.
• Turn the breaker off to isolate power to your Spa.
• Turning counter clockwise, unscrew the Grate located on the front of the Spa Boy Sensor Housing.
