Bromine Generator Clear Water Plan

This plan and its chemical dosages are intended for spas equipped with the optional Cal Clarity Automatic Bromine Generator. The chemical references are designed for Cal Spas chemicals only. Note: Following these instructions is very important to ensure proper operation of your Cal Clarity Automatic Bromine Generator.

Start Up

1.Clean surface of spa with Cal Spas “Multi- Purpose Cleaner”.

2.Apply a protective coat of Cal Spas “Fast Sheen” to the acrylic surface.

3.Fill spa to proper water level with normal tap water. (Do not use soft water.)

4.Use bromine test strip and balance the spa water:

•Adjust total alkalinity (acceptable range is 80 to 120 ppm),

•Adjust pH if necessary (between 7.2 to 7.8).

5.Pour in 16 oz of Cal Spas “Metal Protector” in the center of spa.

6.Test for TDS (total dissolved solids).

•The ideal range is 50 to 300 ppm.

•TDS must be less than 500 ppm to start with.

7.Phosphate level should be below 200 ppb. Remove phosphates if necessary.

8.Determine the gallon capacity of the spa. Be accurate, because this determines the amount of TRU BLU that will be added. Consult the Cal Spas Pre-delivery Guide for spa gallons.

9.Power up the spa and make sure all the spa’s pumps are set to high speed. Turn the dial on the face of the Cal Clarity Bromine Generator to OFF.

10.Sprinkle evenly over the surface of the spa one 2lb bottle of TRU BLU sodium bromide per 100 US gallons (370 liters) of water. Do not add too much!

Note: Each bottle of TRU BLU will raise TDS / conductivity amount approximately 500 ppm.

11. Allow spa to run for 15 minutes so the TRU BLU can dissolve completely before proceeding to the next step.

GFCI specifications

Cal Spas GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is an essential safety feature incorporated in Cal Spas hot tubs and spas, designed to protect users from electrical shocks and enhance overall safety during relaxation. This advanced technology monitors the electrical current flowing through the spa's components, providing peace of mind for families and individuals enjoying their hydrotherapy experience.

One of the main features of the Cal Spas GFCI is its quick response time. The GFCI continuously measures the current balance between the hot and neutral wires. If it detects an imbalance, potentially caused by faulty wiring or a short circuit, it immediately trips the circuit, cutting off power to the unit within a fraction of a second. This rapid response significantly minimizes the risk of electrical accidents, making it a vital component for any outdoor or indoor spa setup.

Another key characteristic of the Cal Spas GFCI is its user-friendly design. The GFCI outlet is often equipped with a reset button, which allows users to quickly restore power once the issue has been addressed. This feature eliminates the need for complicated maintenance procedures, ensuring that users can enjoy their spa without frequent interruptions.

Incorporating state-of-the-art technology, Cal Spas GFCI is designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor environments. The durable exterior of the GFCI unit protects it from exposure to moisture, debris, and other potential hazards, leading to increased longevity and reliability. Moreover, the GFCI meets the highest safety standards and regulations, providing confidence to consumers that they are investing in a safe product.

Another highlight of the Cal Spas GFCI is its compatibility with a variety of hot tub configurations. This flexibility allows it to work seamlessly with different Cal Spas models, delivering consistent safety features across the entire range. Additionally, installation is straightforward, with many users opting for professional installation to ensure it is set up correctly.

In summary, Cal Spas GFCI enhances the safety of hot tub and spa experiences through its quick trip response, durable design, user-friendly functionalities, and compatibility with various models. By integrating this technology, Cal Spas demonstrates its commitment to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.
