CalSpas UV Filtration System The UV water sanitizer is an optional water purification system installed at the factory. It eradicates germs in the water that are resistant to chlorine-based chemicals using high intensity UV light. Although the water sanitizer works automatically with your spa, you will still need to test for chlorine or bromine and replenish it to return the sanitizer level to the baseline.
Cover and Locking System Important! Keep the Chill Spa covered when not in use! • Covering your spa helps prevent children from drowning in the spa. • Covered spas will use less electricity in maintaining your In addition, while the spa cover is rigid, it is not designed to set temperature.
Cleaning Your Chill Spa Spa Cover and Pillows Due to the constant punishment your spa cover and pillows receive, you should protect them by applying a vinyl and leather cleaner as part of your monthly maintenance plan. Use a product that is specifically designed to protect spa covers and pillows from chemical and ultraviolet light damage without leaving an oily residue behind that is normally associated with common automotive vinyl protectants.
Removing and Reseating the Pillows You can remove the pillows for cleaning and maintenance quickly and easily. This method works for all types of pillows. Grab the lower edge of the pillow with both hands firmly and pull up. As you do this, the pillow inserts will pop out of the holes.
Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining) In many areas of the country, the ambient temperature drops below 32˚F (0°C). We recommend that you always have your spa full of water and running at normal spa temperatures (80˚F to 100˚F, 26.7°C to 37.8°C). This will help reduce the risk of freezing in your spa and your spa’s equipment.
Preventing Freeze Damage Winter Weather Care: The chill spa is designed to operate year round, the insulated chill spa is able to resist changes in ambient temperature in most climates. As long as the unit is running during the cold months of the year the spas internal pump and heater will maintain a steady temperature.
