Weslo WLSB62810, WLSG62810 Maintaining the Proper PH Balance, Sanitizing the Hydrotherapy SPA

Page 14

MAINTAINING THE PROPER PH BALANCE

The pH factor is a measure of the relative acidity or alkalinity in the water, and is measured on a scale of 1 to 14. Pure water has a value of 7, which is neutral. Any value above 7 is alkaline, and any value below 7 is acidic. You should maintain a slightly alkaline pH level, between 7.2 and 7.8, in the hydrotherapy spa.

Severe problems can occur when the pH balance is not maintained within this range. If the pH level exceeds 7.8, dissolved minerals can build up and clog the plumbing in the spa jet unit. If the pH level falls below 7.2, the acid level in the water will begin to cor- rode the metal parts in the spa jet unit. Also, the sani- tation agents in the water will not be effective if the pH level is not properly maintained. Damage caused by improper pH levels is not covered under the warranty.

To maintain the proper pH level, test the pH of the water regularly. To test the water, purchase a pH test kit at a pool and spa supply store. The pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8. If the level is too low, add a pH increaser (usually soda ash). If the level is too high, add a pH reducer (usually sodium bisulfate). Test the water again after five minutes. See the instructions with your pH test kit for additional infor- mation about testing and adjusting the pH.

SANITIZING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

The most common sanitizing agent is a solid bromine concentrate. The amount required varies according to several factors, such as user load, temperature, and water conditions. Proper water maintenance is a com- plex process. Contact your local pool and spa supplier for information concerning which chemicals you should use in your area to sanitize the spa.

CHANGING THE FILTER CYCLE

The spa will filter the water every 12 hours. The dura- tion of the cycle can be adjusted to last 2 to 5 hours. Press the temperature up or temperature down button on the console. When the display begins to flash, press the pump button. The display will read F2. To change the time, press the temp up button until the desired time is reached. Press the pump button to confirm the selection. As spa usage increases, the duration of the filter cycle may need to be increased.

REMOVING AND ATTACHING THE ACCESS PANEL

To locate the access panels, refer to the drawing on page 6. Turn off the power to the spa. To remove an access panel, first remove the four indicated screws.

Slide the access panel down and then pull the bottom of it away from the spa. Note: Be careful not to damage the spa shell as you remove the access panel.

To re-attach the access panel, insert the top of the access panel under the edge of the spa shell. Slide the access panel up until the bottom of the access panel clears the trim along the bottom of the spa.

Then, slide the access panel into place and re-attach the four screws.

DRAINING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

The hydrotherapy spa should be drained at least four times per year and refilled with clean water. You may need to drain the spa more often, depending on the user load. This must be done because after repeated chemical treatment the water becomes chemically saturated. Once this happens, additional chemical treatment of the water is no longer effective. The spa should also be drained if you will not be using it for long periods of time. The spa must always be drained before major repairs are made.

The hydrotherapy spa should always be covered when it is empty. Direct sunlight can cause exten- sive damage. The surface of the spa shell can reach temperatures as high as 150°F in a matter of minutes if exposed to the sun while it is empty. These high temperatures can cause significant damage, such as blistering of the shell surface and warping of the spa shell. Any damage caused by sun exposure is not covered under warranty.
