Swim Spa
which in conjunction with spa sanitizing and
water balancing chemicals provides you with
cleaner, healthier water, reduced chemical
usage, and protects your skin from chemically
induced irritation.
Sanitizing with Ozone
Swim Spa products vary in size, and in the
frequency and conditions of use. For these
reasons you will need to establish your
sanitizing program based upon your own
personal use. When using ozone, you should
start by balancing your water chemistry as
you normally would. A Swim Spa should be
 ltered a minimum of six hours per day during
which time ozone will be mixed into the water.
If your Swim Spa is heavily used, this run time
should be increased.
The amount of a residual sanitizer (chlorine
or bromine) that you maintain in the
water will also vary depending on use. It is
recommended that you maintain a residual of
3.0–5.0 ppm. Periodically, and after periods of
heavy use, it is necessary to “shock” your Swim
Spa with large amounts of sanitizer.
NOTE: Extra  ltration can be provided by
manually starting a clean-up cycle. Turn
Pump 1 on in low speed. The pump will
operate for 4 hours and then automatically
turn o . The heater, ozone generator and UV
system will also operate during this period if
the controls are set in Standard mode.
Specialty Chemicals
While ozone may signi cantly reduce the
usage of specialty chemicals (chlorine and
bromine), it is not a substitute for these
chemicals. All chemicals should continue to be
monitored, especially during periods of heavy
usage and when changing or replenishing the
Swim Spa water.
Draining your Swim Spa
NOTE: Always turn the circuit breaker o
when you drain your Swim Spa. Do not turn
the spa heater back on until you have full  ow
coming from the jets for several minutes.
High concentrations of impurities caused by
water evaporation, body oils, perfumes, and
other contaminants may accumulate in the
Swim Spa and cannot be  ltered out.
NOTE: Consequently, it is advisable to drain
your Swim Spa and re ll it with fresh water
every six to eight weeks, or more often
depending on the amount of use.
All Swim Spa products are equipped with
multiple internal drains. These drains are used
to remove water from internal plumbing,
when Winterizing your Swim Spa (See pg. 32),
or if the water is severely contaminated.
NOTE: Use a standard garden hose to direct
the water to an appropriate disposal area.
All internal drain hose(s) are located behind
the front access panel. Remove the access
panel screws and the access panel. Locate
the drain hose(s). For each hose drain valve,
remove the cap, attach the garden hose, and
turn the valve handles, located on the drain
valve body, 90° counter-clockwise. Water
will begin to  ow. When all water has been
evacuated, turn the valve handle clockwise
until it stops. Remove garden hose and replace
the cap. Repeat for each internal drain hose.
