Your new Cal Spa comes equipped with an electric heater. Following the directions listed below will ensure
the most efcient operation:
NOTE: This method is only for spa usage under two hours a week.
Keep the spa’s operating temperature 5˚ F below the desired usage temperature when not in use. One or two hours before use, set the temperature to the desired temperature.
If the spa usage exceeds two hours a week, the set temperature should remain at the desired usage temperature.
The air venturis should be used sparingly. When open, water temperature drops quite rapidly and can also dissipate chemicals.
Allowing the water temperature to lower more than 10˚F below the desired usage temperature and reheating
it prior to usage will cause the heater to operate longer than it normally would maintaining the desired tem-
perature. Doing this will increase your operating cost and makes your heater work more than necessary.
