spa cover. | The spa cover must be tight. | Set |
the air control to low. The water will heat at a rate of 1.7°F an hour. If you are using the spa indoors, and the room temperature is main-
tained at 70°F, it will take approximately 20 to 28 hours for the water to reach the set temper- ature.
b. If you are using the RENEW 900 outdoors, it may take longer for the water to heat. See the chart below for the approximate heating time.
