IMPROPER INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INVALIDATES THE WARRANTY. AVOIDING THE RISK TO CHILDREN • To reduce the risk of injury, lower water temperatures are recommended for young children. Children are especially sensitive to hot water. • Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a hot tub unless they are supervised at all times. DO: • Make sure you always lock the child resistant locks after using the hot tub for your children’s safety. • Test the water temperature with your hand before allowing children to enter the hot tub to be sure that it’s comfortable. Children are especially sensitive to hot water. • Remind children that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Make sure that children are careful when entering or exiting the hot tub. • Do not allow children to climb onto the hot tub cover. • Do not allow children to have unsupervised access to the hot tub. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 6 AVOIDING THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION DANGER – RISK OF ELECTROCUTION Initial safety warnings • The hot tub must be powered through a residual current device (rCD) with a current release not exceeding 30mA. • The devices and parts which contain active parts – except those which are powered from protective extralow voltage not exceeding 12V – must be inaccessible from the hot tub. • Connect only to a grounded source. • Do not bury the power cord. A buried power cord may result in death, or serious personal injury due to electrocution if direct burial-type cable is not used, or if improper digging occurs. WARNING • To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace a damaged cord immediately. Failure to do so may result in death or serious personal injury due to electrocution. • Your hot tub must be connected to a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for user and equipment protection. To ensure proper operation of this important safety device, test according to the following instructions per electrical configuration. • Cord-Connected 115 volt, 20 amp models: The GFCI is located at the end of the power cord. Before each use, with the unit operating, push the TEST button. The unit should stop operating and the GFCI power indicator will go out. Wait 30 seconds and then reset the GFCI by pushing the RESET button. The GFCI power indicator will turn on, restoring power to the hot tub. If the interrupter does not perform in this manner, there may be an electrical malfunction and with it, the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the problem has been corrected. • 2×120 volt, permanently connected or converted models: • A ground terminal is provided on the terminal block (TB-1, system ground terminal) located inside the control box. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your electrical service or supply panel with a continuous green, insulated copper wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the outside of the control box for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this connector should be bonded with a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the hot tub to comply with local requirements. The means of disconnection must be readily accessible, but must be installed at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from the hot tub. • Your hot tub is provided with a suitably rated circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors. • Your hot tub uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical subpanel. Before each use of the hot tub and with the unit operating, push the TEST button on each breaker. The switch should click over to the “Trip” position. Wait 30 seconds and reset each GFCI breaker by switching it completely off and then completely on. The switch should then stay on. If either of the interrupters does not perform in this manner, it is an indication of an electrical malfunction and the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 7 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT: Failure to wait 30 seconds before resetting the GFCI may cause the hot tub’s Power Indicator (on the control panel) to blink. If this occurs, repeat the GFCI test procedure.

If you turn the water reverser to the right, it will operate the jets on its right seats. if you turn it to the left, it will operate the jets on its left seats. In center position all the jets controlled by water reversing will operate. In this case the efficiency of the massage is reduced (it splits among the seats). ENRICHMENT: With the enrichment tool additional air is introduced to the jets, which strengthens the effect of the massage. Open to the right, close to the left. TAP The tap has an opened and a closed position. When it’s open, it can operate the waterfall nozzle, the one-hole fountain, or the neck massage unit. The tap opens to the left, (3, 2/3 rewind) and closes to the right (3, 2/3 rewind). INITIAL INSTALLATION SITE PREPARATION When choosing a site for the hot tub take into account that its maintenance and repair works must be carried out behind the sidewalls, so accessibility and hot tubce to walk around the hot tub must be ensured. 1. INDOOR/BASEMENT INSTALLATION If you place your hot tub indoors, be aware of some special requirements: Water may accumulate around the hot tub, so the flooring material must have a proper runoff to avoid accumulation of water. When building a new room for the hot tub, constructing a floor drain is required, or damages may occur due to overflow, overfilling, or technical failure. Our company does not take responsibility for any damage in absence of floor drainage.Humidity will naturally increase in the room where the hot tub is located and the evaporated water condenses. For this reason ensure that the area has proper ventilation. We recommend installing a dehumidifier in the room. 2. OUTROOR AND PATIO INSTALLATION A solid horizontal foundation is necessary for installation of the hot tub. We advise using a reinforced concrete foundation at least 10-15cm thick. Ensure that your deck or foundation will support your hot tub. You must know the maximal load capacity of the foundation. Consult a qualified building contractor or structural engineer. To find out the weight of your hot tub, its contents and occupants please refer to the hot tub specification chart. This weight must not exceed the structure’s rated capacity per square meter, otherwise serious structural damages could result. If you install the hot tub outdoors, we recommend a reinforced horizontal concrete pad at least 10-15cm thick. Install floor drains around your hot tub to lead water away even in heavy rain. When constructing the water drain it is advised to form a 10-15cm deep sloping ditch around the hot tub which directs water to the drain. Water from the drain must be directed to the canal or a drainage with enough capacity. Warning: Do not expose the hot tub to direct sunlight (not even empty) without proper coverage. The insulated hot tub cover preserves the water temperature and provides protection from sunlight and rain. When exposed to sunshine for a longer period it may damage the surface of the hot tub and the hot tub equipment. Acrylic rapidly absorbs heat from sun rays, thus reaches a very high surface temperature which may damage the hot tub. In case of sealed design, if the hot tub was placed between glass structures, prevent the sun rays from reaching the hot tub directly through the glass as the temperature may get too high. 3. IN-GROUND / SUNKEN HOT TUB In case of sinking the hot tub into the ground you must make sufficient space for walking around the hot tub. For completion of maintenance works a minimum of 60cm wide inspection pit must be built around the hot tub. The inspection pit’s bottom must be under the bearing pont of the hot tub so that water can flow into the pit in case of water leakage. A floor drain or sump pump should be used at the bottom of the pit to ensure continual water drainage. In case of sinking the hot tub only the portion below the hot tub’s acrylic edge can be sunk. The air of the inspection pit steams up. To prevent unpleasant odors proper ventilation must be provided (e.g. installing ventilators). The costs of pulling the hot tub out of the ground are borne by the user. If the aforementioned conditions are not present, setting up the hot tub may fail. First filling of the hot tub Proper filling of the hot tub is an important task both technically and chemically. We advise installation and periodic maintenance by the servicing professionals, which includes inspection and refilling of hot tub water. Hot tubs do not contain water softener and hard water damages the equipment. Improper filling of the hot tub may bring air into the system, which damages the heating wire and engines. Repairs after such failures are not covered by warranty. Filling process Remove the hot tub cover. First remove the cover staves, then remove the side covers by unscrewing the bottom screws. During transportation the flare fittings of engines may dislocate. Check these connections before installation. If necessary, tighten the flare fittings. In hot tubs equipped with air engine the flare fitting must be connected before running the hot tub for the first time. Before filling the hot tub check that the ratchets are not in a closed state (lever is pulled out and fixed with the safety lock). Next fill the hot tub with water to the sign indicated on its sidewall. Filling must be done through the filter housing. Improper filling can damage the engines and heating element. Insert the filter or filter cartridges when proper water level is reached. Be cautious, because when replacing the filter cartridge air bubbles may remain in the cartridge. To avoid this the filter cartridges must be tilted in the water to remove air from them, and only then fitted to their place. 17 INITIAL INSTALLATION 18 Electrical preparations: A clearly labeled emergency switch shall be provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be readily accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at least 5 feet (1.52 m) away, adjacent to, and within sight of, the unit.

Balance your water parameters (see info in your user guide regarding water chemistry for hot tub: total hardness, alkalinity, pH). 4. Start main pump and add BromiCharge™ slowly into the warm water, 0.54 kg for every 378 liters (1.2 lbs per every 100 gallons) of water. 5. Turn on the in.clear system by pressing and holding the on/off button for 2 seconds, until your display lights up. Refer to your user manual for information on achieving the proper BromiCharge™ quantity. 6. Now you’re ready to calibrate your in.clear settings. There are 2 settings, Maintenance and Boost. 7. Maintenance: Your Maintenance value was set at the factory. It should read “5” to start. Using your hot tub while you’re establishing the residual will slow the process. Be patient. Check your bromine level each day with a test kit. Your goal is a residual bromine bank of 3 – 5 ppm. If the bromine content of your water is less than 3 ppm, press and hold the Maintenance key for 2 seconds and increase the Maintenance setting by 1 or 2 increments with the up arrow . Repeat daily until your bromine level stabilizes at 3 – 5 ppm. IMPORTANT FOR THE STAND ALONE VERSION: Make sure your hot tub is filtering the water at least 8 hours per day. The in.clear only creates bromine when the filter pump is running. 8. Boost: Every time you use the hot tub, press Boost . Boost runs a clean-up cycle that returns your residual bromine to the proper level. You should run Boost every time you use the hot tub. Press Boost key . Set the Boost level by using the up and down arrow to select the number of bathers that use the hot tub (i.e., 2 users = 2, and so on). With the proper Maintenance level setting, and consistent use of the Boost mode, your hot tub will be ideally maintained. Refer to our web site www.geckoalliance.com/inclear for detailed information about the operation of the in.clear. START UP PROCEDURE (Instruction video: www.geckoal.com/inclear) On/Off Maintenance OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR INTRODUCTION HOW THE IN.CLEAR WORKS When sodium bromide (such as BromiCharge) is added to the water, it separates into sodium ions and bromide ions. As the water passes through the in.clear bromine generator, a low-voltage source supplies a current that electrolytically reduces the bromine ions into bromine. The bromine destroys bacteria and algae, and then releases bromide ions back into the water for continuous recycling until the hot tub is emptied. It is important to note that the amount of bromine needed will vary in direct proportion to the number of bathers in the hot tub (bather load). VERSIONS There are two versions of the in.clear module: a stand alone version that uses the in.k200 keypad directly, and the linked version, which communicates with the hot tub pack for more control and precision. EFFECTS OF BROMINE • Bromine destroys waterborne bacteria. • Bromine destroys algae in water (e.g. Black, Green, Mustard). • Bromine swiftly eliminates the presence of organic matter left behind by hot tub users (e.g. oil, sweat, dead skin cells). • Because bromine doesn’t contain calcium, it can be used to sanitize hard water without increasing the calcium hardness. BROMINE IN A HOT TUB Bacteria require a certain period of time before forming into micro colonies and becoming attached to a surface. Rapid elimination of bacteria is a key element in the proper maintenance of the hot tub water. The in.clear achieves this while oxidizing odors, reducing eye and skin irritation. The in.clear enhances the clarity and quality of hot tub water. For bathers this translates into a more enjoyable warm water therapy experience. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR 84 85 BEFORE STARTING (see video: www.geckoal.com/inclear) OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR 1. DRAIN AND CLEAN THE HOT TUB It’s important to completely drain and clean the hot tub to remove all residues accumulated on the surface and inside or around the jet area. After draining the hot tub, use hot tub cleaning products only. Household cleaners contain additives such as phosphates which may affect the bromine production. When the hot tub is clean, rinse it off thoroughly with a garden hose. It’s extremely important to clean your filter cartridge with a filter soaking solution or replace your filter artridges. It is important that the hot tub is well cleaned and rinsed prior to the startup of the new system. Some biofilms may have formed in the hot tub that could prevent the system from functioning properly. We strongly recommend the use of a flushing product such as Hot tub System Flush, Swirl Away or National Chemistry Hot tub Purge to clean the plumbing even if the hot tub is brand new. 2. REFILL THE HOT TUB WITH FRESH WATER After the in.clear unit has been installed, check the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) of the water you’ll use to refillthe hot tub. Verifying the TDS range can be done by your local hot tub dealer. The TDS range should be within 50 and 400 PPM. When you’re certain the water is within the proper TDS range, refill your hot tub. If your TDS is higher than 500 PPM, ask your hot tub dealer for additional information to help reduce initial TDS. DO NOT use water from a “Salt Water Softener” system. Make sure there is adequate flow and that no airlocks are trapped in the unit’s plumbing. If airlocks are formed, start the pump and slowly loosen one of the union nuts to release the air trapped in the plumbing Tighten the nut again after you are done. 3. ADJUST WATER CHEMISTRY IN THE HOT TUB Proper chemical maintenance of a hot tub is essential for the health of bathers. Maintaining the quality of the hot tub water within these specified values will enhance your enjoyment of the hot tub and prolong the life of the in.clear system. For best results, adjust to the following water chemistry parameters. Check these parameters periodically. Calcium hardness (TH): between 150 and 200 PPM Total Alkalinity: between 100 and 120 PPM pH: between 7.2 and 7.8 Water chemistry should be balanced before adding sodium bromide into the water. It’s essential that the water chemistry parameters are within the proposed range to obtain optimal system performance. High Calcium Hardness may lead to faster calcification of the electrolytic plates. 4. ADD SODIUM BROMIDE (SUCH AS BROMICHARGE) Water temperature between 32° and 38° C (90° and 100° F) helps dissolve sodium bromide and facilitates the adjustment of the maintenance level. Start the pump to allow water to circulate and slowly add sodium bromide uniformly in the hot tub by simply pouring it from the container. METRIC CALCULATION: Add 0.143 kg of sodium bromide which has a guarantee of at least a 98% active ingredient, such as BromiCharge, per 100 L of water to attain 1 400 ppm TDS value (Total Dissolved Solids). Example, if your hot tub holds 1200 L of water, add 1.72 kg of sodium bromide (12 X 0.143 kg). IMPERIAL CALCULATION: Add sodium bromide which has a guarantee of at least a 98% active ingredient, such as BromiCharge per 100 US gallons of water. Example, if your hot tub holds 300 US gallons of water, add 3.6 lbs of sodium bromide (3 X 1.2 lb). Note: Your hot tub manufacturer can tell you how much water your hot tub holds (in liters or gallons). SODIUM BROMIDE INFORMATION In Canada, the in.clear must only be used with sodium bromide (such as BromiCharge) scheduled or registered under the Pest Control Product Act. In the USA, the sodium bromide (such as BromiCharge) must be registered under the EPA. Your warranty will be void if a product other than sodium bromide is used as a substitute. Do not inhale the product or get into your eyes! First Aid instructions should appear on the label of the registered sodium bromide container. Do not use any other sanitation chemicals (including shock) other than sodium bromide in the hot tub. When adding fresh water to the hot tub, start a Boost to help build a residual bromine bank. MAINTENANCE MODE Maintenance Mode keeps the bromine bank levels at a stable and acceptable range when the hot tub is not being used. Maintenance mode is the “everyday” mode and is automatically ON when the system is activated. Maintenance level adjustment changes the rate at which bromine will be released into the hot tub water. Finding and setting the right maintenance level will keep the residual bromine level between 3 and 5 PPM (the recommended range)when the hot tub is not being used or is left unused for an extended period of time. Once the proper maintenance level is determined, keep the same setting unless the hot tub conditions change (change in water temperature, hot tub location etc). Finding the right bromine generation level is a crucial step for the in.clear system to be stable and effective (see Set Maintenance Mode). With the stand alone version, the hot tub filtration should be set to a minimum of 8 hours per day. To check the minimum filtration time for your hot tub, see the Program Key section. With the linked version, it is not necessary to set the filtration duration, as communication between the pack and in.clear allows the system to stop and start the associated pump at the best times. It is important to note that the in.clear system can ONLY generate bromine when the water is circulating. If you are having problems maintaining a stable level of bromine, or determining the proper maintenance level for your hot tub, you may have to increase the daily filtering time. Longer filtration produces a more steady level of bromine. BOOST MODE The Boost Mode should be activated every time you use your hot tub. Boost mode increases the bromine generation rate to attack pollutants in the water and helps rebuild the necessary residual bromine in the water after each use of the hot tub. Pollutants are introduced to the water by the bathers, causing the bromine levels to decrease. Activating the boost mode when you enter the hot tub will prevent inadequate bromine levels and will restore your bromine to the proper residual level. Finding the right boost level is another crucial step for the in.clear system to be stable and effective. If water quality is not good after use, only the boost level should be adjusted, not the maintenance level. On/Off & Boost key Maintenance Diagnostic key Up key Down key Bromine Generation Indicator lo hi BromiCharge gauge IN.CLEAR OPERATING MODES This manual details the functions of the in.clear with the default keypad (in.k200). If your hot tub pack uses a compatible keypad (ex. in.k800) please see its manual for more specific information. KEYPAD FUNCTIONS OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR 86 87 BOOST KEY The first press of the Boost key turns the in.clear ON and puts the in.clear into maintenance mode. ON appears on the keypad display. Press the Boost key once while in maintenance mode to start a boost, or to adjust boost settings.* The Bromine Generation Indicator (LED), located above the Boost key, lights up when the cell is producing bromine and is off when no bromine is being produced. Press and hold the Boost key for 2 seconds to turn the in.clear off. OFF will appear on the keypad display. Do not turn the in.clear off unless required for maintenance, or if advised by a technician or a Gecko representative. Turning the in.clear off will cancel the boost. Note: With the standalone version the Bromine Generation indicator will blink if the in.clear system cannot generate bromine due to low or no water flow. * In older versions, pressing the Boost key during a boost cycle will cancel the remainder of that boost cycle and return the in.clear system to maintenance mode. PROGRAM KEY Press and hold the Program key for 2 seconds to change the maintenance mode level. Once in maintenance mode adjustment, press the Program key again to view the suggested minimum filtration time * (stand alone version only). Press the Program key once more for Diagnostic mode. * Not displayed in older versions. +/- KEYS Use the Up and Down keys to adjust the maintenance and boost levels while in the appropriate mode. DIAGNOSTIC MODE Diagnostic mode can be used to periodically adjust the sodium bromide level or to check sodium bromide keypad warnings and errors. The BromiCharge Gauge will indicate the level of sodium bromide in the hot tub water. As you add sodium bromide to the hot tub an animation will indicate rising levels*. If the levels go down (when adding fresh water, for example) the animation will indicate diminishing levels. Press the Prog key to exit diagnostic mode or the system will automatically exit after 15 minutes. *In older versions a number will be displayed instead of an animation to indicate the level. The target number is 12. Water must be circulating through the in.clear cell in order for the diagnostic mode to work. If no water is circulating through the in.clear unit, a FLO message will appear on the keypad display. Make sure the pump is circulating water through the in.clear. BromiCharge gauge BROMICHARGE GAUGE (LEDS) In diagnostic mode, the BromiCharge gauge (LEDs) indicates the approximate sodium bromide level of your hot tub water. Do not add sodium bromide if the indicator is in the green zone. When adding sodium bromide, the gauge indicator will gradually shift to the right. When adding clean water to the hot tub the indicator will shift to the left. In order to achieve the proper level, start pumps and add 227g (.5 lb) at a time and always allow 5 minutes for the gauge to react before adding more sodium bromide. The green zone in the center area of the gauge should be targeted for optimal performance. increase decrease KEYPAD FUNCTIONS Be aware that the gauge will move according to sodium bromide level. Make sure your water temperature is at least 32° C (90° F). OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR Set the maintenance level Determining the proper maintenance level for your hot tub is an extremely important step. DO NOT use your hot tub during this step as it will slow the process. Be patient. Make sure you follow steps 1 through 4 of the Before Starting section before performing the following steps. 1. Power up your hot tub and activate the system by pressing the Boost key. 2. Make sure your maintenance level is set to 15. To adjust the level, press and hold the Program key for 2 seconds, then use the Up and Down keys to adjust the maintenance level. The bromine generation rate ranges from 1 to 50, where 1 corresponds to the system’s minimum generating rate and 50 corresponds to the maximum generation rate allowed by the system. OPTIONAL: Set the boost to level 2 to help build up the bromine bank faster and speed up the startup process. 3. Use a test kit to check the bromine level every 12-24 hours*. The bromine level should be between 3-5 PPM. If the bromine level is within that range for 3 consecutive days, you are ready to use your hot tub. If the bromine level is above 5 PPM, decrease the maintenance level. If the bromine level is below 3 PPM, increase the maintenance level. 4. Repeat step 3 until bromine is stable between 3 and 5 PPM for 3 consecutive days. Do NOT increase/decrease maintenance level in steps greater than 2. Setting the maintenance level to a value that’s too high can cause damage to your equipment. Check bromine level and always test water before entering the hot tub. If the bromine level is higher than 5 PPM, lower the maintenance level and turn off the system until the bromine level is back below 5 PPM Then, restart the system and continue monitoring the bromine level. To lower the bromine level, expose your hot tub water to the sun and activate all pumps for a few cycles. * Testing bromine levels with FAS-DPD drop count method is more accurate than using test strips. Bromine FAS-DPD is available at www.geckodepot.com under number 0699-300008. DETERMINE THE BOOST LEVEL Every time you use your hot tub, activate the boost mode. As a rule of thumb, the boost level corresponds to the number of bathers using the hot tub. For example, activate the boost level to 2 if two bathers are entering the hot tub. 1. With the system in maintenance mode, press the Boost key to activate the Boost mode. 2. The keypad display will show a numeric value that corresponds to the selected level. There are 8 possible levels available with the boost mode. Set the boost level by using the up and down arrow to select the number of bathers that use the hot tub. 3. Confirm the selection by pressing the Boost key again or wait 5 seconds for the system to save the desired level and activate the Boost cycle. Note: The in.clear keeps the last used boost level in memory. 4. At the end of the boost period, verify that the bromine level has returned to the 3-5 PPM range. If the bromine level is too low or too high after the Boost period, the boost level should be adjusted the next time the hot tub is used. For example, if bromine level is higher than 5 PPM after a boost of 2, lower the boost level to 1 the next time. Repeat these steps until you are able to determine the ideal boost level for your usage. Note: Boost levels depend on the number of bathers using the hot tub. We recommend you validate the Boost level after each use to determine the ideal boost level for all numbers of bathers. Changing the water temperature setpoint of your hot tub, or using the economy mode, could require a change in the maintenance level of your in.clear. Lower water temperatures may require a lower maintenance level than higher temperature setpoints. Please check your bromine level when changing your temperature setpoint or using the economy mode of your hot tub. Never adjust the maintenance level of your in.clear without allowing at least 24 hours following the end of the boost period. Boost cycles allow the residual bromine level to stabilize. Bromine levels outside the 3-5 PPM range may result from pollutants following usage. Linked version only: If the pack connected to the in.clear detects hot tub use (pumps, blower, or lights active) for 5 minutes without a boost, it will automatically start a boost at the last used level. This is a security feature only, and should not be used to replace the boost setting. Incorrect boost settings for the bather load could damage hot tub parts and/ or be hazardous to bathers. START UP PROCEDURE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR 88 89 LOW SODIUM BROMIDE ERROR Low Sodium Bromide Error (Err) occurs when the sodium bromide level is too low. The lo LED indicator will blink when the error is present. The in.clear system will not generate bromine until the Low Sodium Bromide Error (Err) is cleared. To clear the Low Sodium Bromide error (Err), add sodium bromide to the hot tub water. Let water circulate for 5 minutes. Activate diagnostic mode and add more sodium bromide until gauge is back in the green zone. Exit diagnostic mode. LOW SODIUM BROMIDE WARNING Low Sodium Bromide Warning (Lo) indicates the need to add sodium bromide to the hot tub water. In diagnostic mode, add sodium bromide to the water until the gauge reaches the green zone to clear a Low Sodium Bromide Warning (Lo). If after adding sodium bromide the Low Sodium Bromide Warning (Lo) or Low Sodium Bromide Error (Err) still occurs it could be the result of: • calcification of the electrolytic plates; • airlocks trapped in the in.clear unit or insufficient flow; • internal pressure switch problem. BLINKING “AC” A blinking “AC” message displayed on the keypad indicates that there is a problem with the power input. The most common reason is that the in.clear unit is supplied with 120 V instead of 240 V. Please make sure power cord is connected properly to a 240 V source. STANDALONE VERSION ONLY: BROMINE GENERATION INDICATOR BLINKING A blinking Bromine Generation LED means that the system is unable to generate bromine because no water flow is detected by the in.clear system. This situation is normal if the pump is not running and no water is flowing through the in.clear. However, if water is circulating through the in.clear unit, and the Bromine Generation LED is still blinking, make sure that the in.clear is installed on the pressure side of the pump and that water is properly flowing through the in.clear unit. BROMINE GENERATION INDICATOR IS OFF The Bromine Generation LED indicator is OFF when there is no need for bromine generation. This situation is normal, especially with low maintenance level of bromine generation set on the keypad. TROUBLESHOOTING OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR TROUBLESHOOTING LOW OR NO BROMINE READING Make sure the maintenance level is properly set according to the procedure described in the section Set Maintenance Level. Make sure there is no error or warning message on the display, the cell is activated and that water is circulating properly through the cell. Make sure water chemistry is balanced. Refer to the section Adjust Water Chemistry in the Hot tub for more details. Test your hot tub water for phosphate to make sure there is no contamination. Phosphates should never exceed 100 PPB. Phosphates can be introduced to your hot tub water by household cleaners, soaps and lotions. Change your filter or clean it with a filter cleaner and rinse thouroughly with cold water. Make sure the in.clear cell is not damaged and that no calcium or lime deposits appear on the cell plates. Clean your cell regularly (at least once a year). LONG RECOVERY TIME AFTER USAGE Activate Boost Mode at the appropriate level every time you use your hot tub. Refer to the section Determine the Boost Level. Heavy bather loads will require longer boost periods. If bromine level is below 3 PPM following a boost period, re-activate Boost Mode to bring the bromine bank within 3-5 PPM. The bromine bank should always be regenerated following a boost period. If a high boost level does not regenerate the bromine bank properly, increase the daily filtration time. If bromine production is still inadequate after following all of the instructions above, biofilm deposits could be causing the lack of bromine generation. Flushing products such as Sea Klear Hot tub System Flush, Swirl Away or National Chemistry Hot tub Purge have shown to be effective for biofilm removal. FLO ERROR (OUT OF DIAGNOSTIC MODE) With the linked version the FLO error appears when the in.clear’s pressostat is open for longer than 3 minutes and the pump associated with it was activated by the hot tub pack. Verify that the in.clear unit was installed on the right pump (must be installed on the circulation pump if present). Check that the in.clear is installed on the pressure side of the pump and that water is flowing through the in.clear unit. COMMUNICATION ERROR The Co error indicates that a linked version of the in.clear is being used, but a pack cannot be detected. Ensure that you are using a compatible pack with appropriate software, and that all connections are secure. If this does not clear the message, contact your dealer for help. HIGH SODIUM BROMIDE WARNING High Sodium Bromide Warning (Hi) occurs when too much sodium bromide is present in the water or there is a high TDS level (water hardness, alkalinity, organic compounds, etc). To clear a High Sodium Bromide Warning, readjust the sodium bromide content of your water in diagnostic mode, into the green zone by draining some water from your hot tub and adding fresh water.

A: If your hot tub becomes cloudy or oily due to bather load perform an additional Boost and wait for 24 hours to see if conditions return to normal. If the problem persists consult a hot tub/pool dealer to have your water balanced properly. Q: DOES THE SODIUM BROMIDE EVAPORATE? A: No. Sodium bromide is only lost through splash out, eaks or when draining your hot tub. Q: WHAT SHOULD I USE TO CLEAN MY HOT TUB? A: Always use a non-sudsing cleaner found at your hot tub store. Q: WHEN MY IN.CLEAR BROMINE GENERATOR IS OFF DOES THE SODIUM BROMIDE CONTINUE SANITIZING MY HOT TUB? A: No, the in.clear system does not sanitize if inactive. If there is a residual bank of bromine, bromine continues to sanitize the hot tub water. The in.clear may be off at certain times and the hot tub will still be fine and clean. The sodium bromide is converted to bromine as it passes through the electrodes of the in.clear system and the pump associated with the in.clear is running. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ORGANIC MATTER Substances left behind by hot tub users such as oil, sweat and dead skin cells that serve as “food” for bacteria. CALCIUM HARDNESS (CH) Calcium Hardness describes the concentration of calcium in your hot tub water. TOTAL HARDNESS (TH) Total Hardness describes the concentration of calcium and magnesium in your hot tub water. BATHER LOAD This term is used to describe the number of bathers using a hot tub, combined with the length and frequency of its usage. The higher the bath usage, the greater quantity of chemicals needs to be added to maintain the same hot tub water quality. TDS Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is an expression for the combined content of all inorganic and organic substances contained in a liquid which are present in a molecular, ionized or micro-granular (colloidal sol) suspended form. pH pH (potential hydrogen) is a measure of the acidity or basicity of a solution. TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA) Total Alkalinity or TA is a measure of the ability of a solution (such as water) to neutralize acids to the equivalence point of carbonate or bicarbonate. PPM “Parts-per million” notation is used to denote relative proportions or a comparative ratio in a given measured quantity. The expression “1 PPM” means a given property exists at a relative proportion of one part per million parts examined, as would occur if a water-borne pollutant was present at a concentration of one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution. GLOSSARY OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR CELL CLEANING Phosphoric acid or muriatic acid In.clear includes a self-cleaning feature to prevent scale deposits on the graphite electrodes of the in.clear system. However, deposits may still form due to hard water. If that happens the cell should be cleaned in an acidic solution. All power must be disconnected before any service procedure is performed. Disconnect the communication cable and power cable of the in.clear unit. TO CLEAN THE IN.CLEAR CELL, FOLLOW THESE STEPS: • To remove scales from the cell, we recommend using phosphoric acid (non-diluted) as the preferred cleaning product. • Close the hot tub flow shut off valves. Unscrew both unions from the unit and remove the cell from the hot tub equipment compartment. • Install the rubber washer and the plastic nut on the threaded end of the cell. Tighten plastic nut firmly. • Place the cell vertically with the cap end down into a plastic 19 L (5 U.S. gallon) bucket and carefully pour the acid solution into the cell until the 4 plates are covered (careful not to overflow). The acid solution will begin to produce bubbles to clean the electrodes. A foaming action will follow, which is caused by the scale deposits being dissolved from the plates. If rigorous foaming action does not begin, the cell does not need to be cleaned. Rinse and reinstall the cell. • Allow the electrodes to remain in the solution until the foaming has stopped. However, DO NOT leave in acid for more than fifteen minutes. Excessive acid cleaning will damage the electrolytic cell. • Pour the acid solution back into the bucket and rinse the cell thoroughly with clean tap water. If deposits are still visible, repeat operation for fifteen minutes maximum (some acid may need to be added to the solution). • Remove the plastic nut and washer from the cell and keep them for future cell cleaning. • Rinse the in.clear with fresh water. • Re-install the in.clear unit into hot tub system plumbing, tighten all connections by hand. Open the hot tub flow shut off valves. • Reconnect the keypad and power cable. • Turn power on and start up the pump. Check the keypad to see that the bromine generation LED is on and resume normal operation. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.CLEAR Refer to acid manufacturer’s instructions. Wear eye protection and rubber gloves during these operations. Splashing or spilling acid can cause severe personal injuries and/ or property damage. Always work in a well-ventilated area. Always add acid to the water; never add water to the acid. Do not pour acid outside of the unit where the connectors are located. Never use acetic acid to clean the cell, as this will cause permanent damage to cell components and void the warranty. 96 97 FILTRATION AND OZONE In a system without circulation engines the low setting of the massage engine and the ozone generator will switch on during filtration. In a circulation type system ozone starts in a system with circulation engine. The system is factory programmed for an evening filtration cycle since energy prices might be lower in the evening (assuming that the time of day is properly set). The filtration time and duration are programmable. A second filtration cycle can be freely entered. At the start of every filtration cycle the jets and engine start to clean the pipes and ensure proper water quality.

Also acts as a hub to connect up to four single button switches and one 4 button auxiliary switch. Connected to the Y series, in.grid gives you the advantages of using alternative heating sources. Connected to the CO port of your hot tub control system, in.grid will act as a dispatcher of external heating sources such as your heat pump or your central house heating system. With in.grid, you can choose one of its four modes of operation that suits you the best, depending on your external heating system and your climate. Smart modes help you taking more advantage of your external heat source to optimize your savings. INSTALLATION The in.grid provides a connection to a normally open drycontact relay on a spring-loaded female connector. The connector accepts bare wire connections. The cable must be passed through the already installed watertight grommet. Use wire gage between AWG 24 and AWG 16. Use cable with round jacket suitable for the watertight grommet. Diameter should be between 0.090” and 0.250”. The dry contact is rated for low voltage of maximum 24V and 4A. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.GRID to heat pump or central hot water system 99 IMPORTANT: Your heat pump or gas heater must have all the flow and temperature limit protections. Your heat pump or gas heater must be connected to your Y series hot tub control system. Make sure to always connect your external heating system in the same water pipe filter of your hot tub control system heater (as illustrated above). The unit must be installed after your hot tub control system (as illustrated above). You need to be sure your pump heater or gas heater is set to the maximum set point temperature. Your water temperature regulation will be controlled with your hot tub control system, by adjusting the set point on the hot tub keypad. The in.grid dry contact should be hooked to the input for wire remote temperature control of the external heating system. Your voltage must be below 24 V. If the in.grid controls are used with a gas heater, the remote temperature control input is usually called “fireman’s switch”. Please make sure your heat exchange does not have a flow restriction. The heater in your Y series hot tub control system needs a minimum of 20 GPM all the time. Make sure to always connect your heat exchange unit in the same water pipe filter of your Y series hot tub control system heater. The dry contact of the in.grid must only control a low voltage line and is used to power a low voltage relay coil. Use a relay driver to power up the auxiliary pump low voltage.

Hot tub pack Central heating Heat exchange in.grid Relay driver To hot tub 240Vac 50/60Hz Auxiliary pump Hot tub circulation/ main pump You can choose between four different water regulation modes available. Your in.grid is automatically detected by the hot tub control system at power up. It will be ready to use with your preferred heat mode one minute following power up. The relay contacts of the in.grid will be closed if the external heating system is activated. Otherwise, the relay contacts are open. Your desired heat mode must be set by adding a jumper on one of the five (5) different positions. *Note: Your heat mode selection can be changed with the in.touch 2 app on your mobile device. On your app, any new selection will override the jumper setting of the in .grid. The in.touch 2 app will automatically detect the in.grid presence and will adapt its menu configuration as required. Heat mode selection Diagnostic LED Heat LED Five available heat modes are offered with in.grid: 1- DIS (DISABLED) Use this mode if the hot tub configuration does not have any external heating system and only the single switch functionalities are used. This will avoid in.touch 2 application on a mobile device to display the Heat Mode Selection menu*. The hot tub controller will regulate the water temperature using the standard resistive heater. The single button switches will control the different hot tub accessories according to the AC jumper selections. IMPORTANT: This mode can only be set with the heat mode jumpers. 2- INT (INTERNAL) This mode provides an easy way to revert back to standard water regulation using the internal heater in case of problem with the external heating system. * This mode can be set with your in.touch 2 app on a mobile device without the need to open the hot tub skirt to change the jumper setting on the in.grid. Thanks to your in.touch 2, it will be easier to set your preferred heating mode back once the external heating system is available. 3-EXT (EXTERNAL) Use this mode for a maximum energy saving purpose. The hot tub control system will only use your external heating system to regulate the water temperature. In normal operation, the internal heater will never be activated. * This mode can be set with your in.touch 2 app on a mobile device without the need to open the hot tub skirt to change the jumper setting on the in.grid. Freeze Protection Freeze protection has been added because EXT (EXTERNAL) mode does not allow the activation of the internal heater. In cold weather, if it becomes impossible to keep the water over freezing point, the help of the internal heater will then be needed. This is the only time the freeze protection will come in. At any time, if the water temperature drops to 40°F (4.5°C), the resistive heater will give a boost to avoid freezing. The freeze protection will stay active until water temperature reaches the minimum allowed set point (usually 59°F / 15°C). Normal EXT mode will resume functioning thereafter. 4- BOTH (BOTH SYSTEMS ALL AT ONCE) Use this mode for swim hot tubs or large hot tubs, which have bigger needs of energy to keep the water temperature at the desired set point. The hot tub control system will always use the external heating system AND the internal heater simultaneously to regulate the water temperature; they are both activated or deactivated at the same time. * This mode can be set with your in.touch 2 app on a mobile device without the need to open the hot tub skirt to change the jumper setting on the in.grid. 5- SMART (ENERGY SAVINGS) Use this mode for a better energy saving purpose, combined with a maximum water temperature regulation efficiency. The hot tub control system will always use the external heating system to regulate the water temperature. If the temperature falls too far below your set point (-2.5°F), the internal heater will be activated to help your external heating system reach the set point. Once the temperature is within 1.5°F from set point, the internal heater is deactivated and the external heating system takes all control of the water regulation again. * This mode can be set with your in.touch 2 app on a mobile device without the need to open the hot tub skirt to change the jumper setting on the in.grid. Troubleshooting DIAGNOSTIC LED The diagnostic LED will help you with the status of the connection between the hot tub control system and the in.grid. Blinking light: Hot tub control system not detected, not compatible or in Disable mode if one of your single switches doesn’t operate properly. Solid light: Hot tub control system detected No light: Power Off HEAT LED Solid light: Relay contacts close and external heating system on. No light: Relay contacts open and external heating system off. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.GRID Heat Mode Operations 100 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.TOUCH 2 The Home Transmitter unit must be installed inside the house near the router as it needs to be connected to it. The Home Transmitter is provided with an Ethernet cable and a power supply. If required, a longer cable of good quality can be used by the installer (longer cable not provided) to install the Home Transmitter closer to the hot tub within the home. The only requirement for installation location is that household .current be available to power the Home Transmitter using the provided wall transformer. The Home Transmitter can be fixed in the house to optimize the signal strength. We recommend that you install the unit with a #8 pan head screw. Here are some suggestions for a successful installation: • If possible, install device on the first floor of your house. • If installing in a basement, place at highest level possible and closest to a window. • Try to install as far as possible from materials that may interfer with signal (ie. metal structures, thick cement walls). • Install as far as possible from router as the signal emitted by the antenna may interfere with RF signal. HOME TRANSMITTER (EN MODULE) INSTALLATION Simply connect Ethernet cable into the RJ45 port of the Home Transmitter and in one of the available LAN ports on the router. Finally, to power up the Home Transmitter, connect the provided transformer to a 120V (North American model) or 220V (European model) household supply and connect the USB cable between the transformer and the Home Transmitter. Micro usb power RJ45 Ethernet connection Ethernet cable LAN port, router CONNECTION OF THE HOME TRANSMITTER (EN MODULE) 101 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.TOUCH 2 102 PAIRING THE HOT TUB TRANSMITTER (CO MODULE) AND THE HOME TRANSMITTER (EN MODULE) The pairing process is used when you need to replace one module of the in.touch 2 kit. Otherwise, the in.touch 2 arrives pre-paired from the factory. 1. Power up the Home Transmitter 2. Press on the pairing button with a paper clip or some similar tool. When the pairing mode is active the status LED flashes YELLOW in a rapid pattern. The Home Transmitter is then in pairing mode and will remain in this mode until it pairs with an Hot tub Transmitter, or until it is reset (power cycled). 3. Shut off the hot tub’s breaker (thus turning off the Hot tub Transmitter), wait a few seconds, and then flip the breaker back on. Within a few seconds, the pairing operation should complete and the Home Transmitter status LED will no longer be YELLOW. Note: in.touch 2 modules can be paired as often as necessary, but can only be paired with a single counterpart module at a time. Once paired, the modules store this information permanently until the next pairing operation. Pairing information is stored in non-volatile memory, so pairing is not required after a power failure. Only a Home Transmitter can initiate a pairing, so it is important that the pairing begin with putting the Home transmitter module in pairing mode. If several hot tubs are powered up at the same time with a Home Transmitter in pairing mode (for instance, in a dealer showroom), only the 1st hot tub to successfully connect to the Home Module will pair. As this can be random, it is recommended that only 1 hot tub be powered up at a time during the pairing process. pairing button status LED Main electrical box GFCI panel OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.TOUCH 2 103 LED Each in.touch 2 module has a status LED that can be used for troubleshooting purposes.

Until a pairing successfully completes, the application cannot connect to the hot tub. To complete the pairing, you must turn off the hot tub (using its breaker), wait a few seconds and then flip back the breaker to on. The pairing will then occur within a few seconds. If not, then the Hot tub Transmitter is either incorrectly connected, out of range, or defective. If the in.touch 2 modules were previously paired and the pairing switch is accidently pressed, simply unplug the Home Transmitter USB power cord and re-plug it (thereby resetting the Home Transmitter). The modules should then normally reconnect together. Once out of pairing mode, the Home Transmitter will display another color. For each of the following colors, the information applies whether the LED is blinking or not. If the LED is blinking, please also refer to the Blinking LED section below. RED color: Reason? The Home Transmitter is not detecting a router. Until this is resolved, the application cannot connect to the hot tub. What to do? Make sure the router is powered and working correctly (i.e. test it using another computer or device connected to the same LAN port you intend to use). Make sure the Ethernet cable is correctly connected at each end (LAN port on router end, and the Home Transmitter.) If the problem still occurs, try connecting with another cable. If a computer (or other device) works fine on the LAN port, and the cable is fine, then the Home transmitter is likely defective. GREEN color: Reason? The Home Transmitter is connected to a router (an IP address was assigned), but the in.touch 2 server is not reachable. What to do? This is very likely a router configuration issue, so refer to your router’s User Manual. It may be due to Port 10022 being closed. Normally, this port is open by default in commercial routers, but different routers may have different behaviors. If Port 10022 is confirmed as open, then some other internal configuration is preventing the router from accessing Internet. In this case, the application will still have access to the hot tub if connected to the same network. The server may also simply be temporarily “offline” for servicing/maintenance, so try again later. The application can still connect with the hot tub, but only from within the same network. If the application can connect to a local hot tub, the problem is likely the Internet connection (WAN), a router mis- configuration, or your Internet Service Provider (ISP) has issues with its network connection. BLUE color : Reason? This is the normal state of the Home Transmitter LED. It has a full Internet connection, with access to the in.touch 2 server. As long as your device and application have access to the Internet (either via Wi-Fi or cellular data such as 3G, 4G, or LTE), then you’re good to go! What to do? Enjoy your hot tub! HOME TRANSMITTER (EN MODULE) LED STATUS This module’s LED can show various status conditions, as indicated below. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.TOUCH 2 122 Rapidly flashing YELLOW color: The Hot tub Transmitter is in pairing mode when this color is shown. This normally briefly occurs automatically during power-up of the hot tub (i.e. right after the breaker is flipped on). This could also occur if the Hot tub Transmitter was never paired (which is very unlikely, as they are shipped paired from factory). Refer to the pairing section if your unit has not been paired, so you may complete the process. BLUE color: Reason? This is the normal state of the Hot tub Transmitter LED. If the Hot tub Transmitter also shows solid blue, you are all set! If this LED is blinking, refer to the Blinking LED section below. What to do? Enjoy your hot tub! Blinking LED: On both modules, if the LED is blinking about once per second, it means that the RF link is not established between them (i.e. each in.touch 2 module cannot communicate with its counterpart). This can occur for several reasons. Review the following and perform the tests in the order given below. Unpaired: As the modules are shipped paired from the factory, this is not a likely cause, but it is the easiest test to perform in the field. Simply attempt to pair them again. Please refer to the Pairing section for instructions on pairing. Modules out of range: If the pairing test above does not resolve the problem, then the modules may be too far from each other for an effective RF link. To test this, simply connect the Home Transmitter outside, close to the hot tub (via an extension cord for power). A router connection is not needed for this test. If the module LEDs no longer blink, an RF link was established which confirms the hypothesis that the modules were too far apart. Getting the modules closer together somehow is the only solution. If moving the modules closer together does not stop the LEDs from blinking, attempt to pair them again. If this pairing fails even though the RF modules are near each other, then one or both of the modules are defective, replace them. HOT TUB TRANSMITTER (CO MODULE) LED STATUS This module’s LED can show various status conditions, as shown below. OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – IN.TOUCH 2 123 SAND FILTER SYSTEM ACCESSORIES OF THE SAND FILTRATION SYSTEM: – filter tank – prefilter circulation engine – circulation valve – silica sand, 0.7 – 1.2 particle size Operational concept: the water is transported by a circulation engine through a filter housing (which does not contain a filter cartridge), then it passes through the sand filter. Then the filtered water flows through the circulation valve and back to the hot tub.In this case the circulation valve is set to “filtration”. Upon inspecting the sand filter’s filling you may come across the following issues. The sand is white when dry: this points to the presence of limescale, in which case there are 2 ways to proceed. Changing the filter sand or applying disinfectant. The sand feels greasy to touch and forms lumps. Take a handful of sand and rub it in your palm. If your skin feels greasy, a layer of biofilm has formed around the sand.The formation of a biofilm layer is often related to lack of rinsing.The actual filter here is the silica sand through which the water passes in a downward flow and the sand filters the particles floating in it.The particle size of the sand ( 0.7 – 1.2mm) is an important regulation. Part of the sand filtration system is the circulation valve which, depending on its position in relation to the tank, can be a side- or a top valve. The lever on the circulation valve can be used to switch between functions.The sand filter has to be backwashed weekly, since pollution can back up in the sand and obstruct the flow of the water.During backwashing the water flow in the filter is reversed, so any filtered pollution will wash down the drain. We recommend changing the sand filter every 2 – 3 years. We recommend disinfecting the sand twice every year. This process involves treating the sand with antialgae chemicals diluted in water. LOADING THE SAND FILTER 1. Before loading the sand into the filter put up the filter tank and fasten the pipe links. 2. Remove the lid and seal. 3. Fill the filter with the required amount of sand. 4. Clean the seal’s nest on the lid. 5. Put the lid on and tighten it. FUNCTIONS OF THE CIRCULATION VALVE: – filtration – backwashing, rinsing – postwashing, postrinsing – flushing – circulation – locking INSTALLATION After filling the sand filtration tank with sand wash the sand as follows: 1. Set the valve to “RINSE”. 2. Open the lockings so that the water flow will not be obstructed and switch on the pump for 3 minutes. 3. Switch the pump off and set the valve to “FILTRATION”. After you finish these steps the sand filtration system is ready to filter the hot tub water. Attention: operate the valve only when the pump is switched off. FILTRATION While the pump is switched off set the valve to “FILTRATION”. Switch the pump on. While the pump is on occasionally check the pressure gauge to monitor the fullness of the filter. When the pressure reaches 1.3 kg/cm2, perform “RINSING”. RINSING Every load of sand represents thousands of channels meant to tackle floating particles and keep them within the sand filter, which means that the channels open to water flow are gradually reduced in number. Because of this the pressure within the filter progressively builds up to 1.3 kg/cm2. This means that the sand filter is not capable of retaining any more contaminations and cleaning is necessary. Do this as follows.Switch the valve to “RINSING” while the part leading to the drain is open and turn the pump on. Any contamination will flow down the drain. CIRCULATION At this setting of the valve the pump moves the water directly into the hot tub without it going through the sand filter. POSTRINSING After rinsing the filter and after setting the device to “FILTRATION” the water will be turbid for a few seconds. To avoid mixing the turbid water with the hot tub water set the valve to “POSTRINSING”. This should be done as follows. Set the valve to “AFTER-RINSING” right after “RINSIGN” and switch the pump on for max. 1 minute. This setting will pump the filtered water right down the drain. FLUSHING If the hot tub cannot be emptied directly into the drain because there is no drainage at the level of the bottom of the hot tub, flushing can be performed via the filtration pump. To perform flushing set the valve to “FLUSHING”. While the valve of the bottom drainage is open, switch the pump on. Important: ensure that while the pump is switched on the hair filter and full tubing of the bottom drainage is always full of water. CLOSED The water flow from the sand filter to the pump is closed in order for the casket of the pump to always be possible to be opened. Filtration Postrinsing Rinsing Flushing Circulation Closed OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES – SAND FILTER SYSTEM 124 125 WATER TREATMENT BASICS The chemical equilibrium of the water The hot tub water will be clean and clear if its chemical components are in equilibrium. 1. pH value: The first important indicator is the pH value of the water. pH is measured on a scale of 0-14 where 7 is the neutral value. The ideal value is between 7.2 and 7.8 pH. pH values out of this range may irritate the skin. Under this value the water is acidic, above is basic. The pH value of the human eye is around 7.5, below 7.2 and above 7.8 the water will sting the eyes. Most problems are caused by the pH value being too high. An improper value reduces the effect of the disinfectant. A high pH value can cause the following problems: • The disinfectant can be ineffective. • The solution can exude solid matter. • The water can become turbid. • Can cause skin irritation. A low pH value can cause the following problems: • The water can become turbid. • Can cause eye irritation. Rain or adding fresh water will change the pH value of the water. 2. Disinfection: Disinfectant is the chemical that eliminates or neutralises the microorganisms (bacteria, algae, fungi, viruses) present in the water. Microorganisms are small microscopic organisms which cannot be detected by the naked eye and are continuously getting into the water through rain, wind, and the bodies of the bathers. If they are not eliminated, they pass from one person to the other through the water (and may cause sickness, infection). Organic matter turns the hot tub water opaque and cloudy. As we are dealing with warm water hot tubs, bromine or active oxygen is most often used. 3. Preventing growth of algae: In addition to the disinfection of water the prevention of growth of algae is another key issue. Algae can grow even if proper disinfection and filtration is performed. Antialgae treatments only work with appropriate pH values. 4. Water hardness: Water hardness is determined by the quantity of calcium and magnesium salts dissolved in the water. Hard waters contain too much of these dissolved salts and thus scale will form if left alone. Scale can cause significant damage to the walls of the hot tub, piping, filter, heating, and engineering units. In Hungary water is medium hard. Water hardness cannot be reduced by the addition of chemicals, but formation of scale can be prevented. 5. Frothing: Froth is the smaller-bigger agglomeration of the bubbles and colloid contaminants found on the surface of the water. It is mostly caused by mixing of dirt, cosmetics, body lotions, etc. that soak out of the human skin and the chemicals. It endangers conservation of the aesthetic appearance and cleanliness of the water. 6. Water analysers: There are several types of water analysers which are mostly used to measure chemical and disinfectant effect. Chemical (pH); Disinfectant (Br, O3) Tester types: Box containing tablets and graduated measuring glass. Litmus paper indicators in a box. Chemicals should always be loaded into the filter housing. Then proper disinfection of the hot tub balance if the chemical levels are not at least 48 hours below the specified value. Even with the most accurate disinfection after 2-3 months the water quality is no longer maintainable and it is necessary to replace the entire water quantity. In this case we advise you an extensive shock-like disinfection with algae. Dissolve a tablespoonful of algae in the hot tub water and run the engines for 15 minutes. After switching it off for 5 minutes switch it on for another 1-2 minutes, then drain, clean, and rinse the hot tub. ATTENTION! Using alcohol- or acetate based cleaning products for cleaning the hot tub is PROHIBITED! The manufacturer is not responsible for damage resulting from the use of such chemicals. The chemical treatment of the water should only be done by persons under 18 years of age under parental supervision. Maintenance should only be performed by qualified professionals. HOT TUB MAINTENANCE Do not expose the hot tub to sunlight! Without a thermal cover direct exposure to sunlight can cause discoloration in the water. Use a hot tub cover when you are not using the hot tub, whether it is filled with water or not. Do not expose the hot tub to rain or snow. If possible, build a covering shelter for the hot tub. The side coating of the hot tub should be protected from high UV exposure (e.g. HOT TUB BAG) and cedar hot tubs should be periodically treated with UV-resistant products. The coating is lined with UV-resistant paint, but because of the previously mentioned factors there is no guarantee that it will prevent fading of color. With cedar coated hot tubs wood treatment is recommended yearly. 1. Periodically drain, clean, and refill the hot tub. We recommend utilizing professional service for the refill. 2. Clean the filter once a month. 3. Shower before stepping into the hot tub. Maintenance is recommended in the following periods: • Weekly and before every use Check the hot tub water – see the basics of water treatment • Every 3 months • Change the filter cartridges • Every 3 months Change the hot tub water – see draining the water • Yearly Inspection of the hot tub is recommended – call a professional for proper inspection. WATER TREATMENT BASICS FILTER CARTRIDGE REMOVAL AND CLEANING Cleaning mechanical contaminations via continuous water circulation and chemical mixture is a basic requirement for proper cleaning of the hot tub water. Every hot tub has an engine designed for this purpose. The circulation engine circulates the water through the filter(s). The filter protects against contamination floating in the water. Cleaning of the filter cartridges is recommended weekly. Soaking the filter cartridges in water mixed with chlorine or antialgae agents for 24 hours is recommended monthly. Changing the filter cartridges is necessary every 3 months. SURFACE MAINTENANCE Wipe the surface with a wet cloth. Always use a neutral cleaning product and a soft wiping cloth. Never scratch the acrylic surface with an abrasive tool, blade, or knife, because it may cause damage. Never use nail polish remover, acetone, or paint stripper when cleaning the surface because it may cause damage. Maintenace manual for the control panel of the hot tub: • Do not damage the control panel with anything hard. If possible, • Avoid exposing the control panel to direct sunlight. • When not using the hot tub, always use a hot tub cover. WINTERIZATION Remember to correctly maintain the hot tub if you are not using it in the winter. If you are not using your hot tub during the winter months and want to put it out of service properly, call one of our qualified professionals to winterize your hot tub at a prearranged date and time. The winterization encompasses the following: • Drainage of used water • Cleaning of the inner surface of the hot tub • Dewatering of pipe and jet system • Dewatering and disconnecting the engine’s interface • Delivery – reception If the hot tub is not winterized properly, the system can retain water that can easily freeze during the winter months. This can cause heavy irreparable damage to the pipes and the engine. This will void the warranty. Maintenance of the out-of-service hot tub: When you are not using the hot tub, use the thermo cover and fasten it with the buckles.Do not forget! If the hot tub is filled with water and you are not using it, lift the cover at least once a week to ensure proper ventilation. The thermo cover is multipurpose. Most importantly it decreases the heating time of the water to operational temperature and decreases the energy needed to maintain water temperature, decreasing the operational costs. Using the cover you can avoid leaves, rain, snow, or other contamination entering the hot tub water, effectively sealing it off from environmental effects. Fastening the cover with buckles prevents young children from using it without parental supervision. CLEAN THE FILTER CARTRIDGES WEEKLY AS FOLLOWS: WARNING! Changing the filter cartridges is recommended every 3 months! Operating the hot tub without a filter cartridge is PROHIBITED 1. Remove the lid of the filter. 2. Take out the filter cartridge. 3. Clean contamination from the cartridge with water. 4. Soak the cartridge in lukewarm water mixed with chlorine or antialgae agents for 1-2 hours, then rinse it. Never use an alkaline detergent or a high-pressure cleaner to clean the filter! RAINING THE WATER You can drain the water via the drain outlet in accordance with environmental standards. 1. Find the drainage and remove the cap. 2. Screw on the metric intermediate piece that came with the hot tub. 3. Twist the larger receiving part anticlockwise as much as possible. 4. Pull the receiving part towards you – the water will start flowing from the hot tub. 5. After the water has drained from the hot tub go through the previous steps in a reversed order.

Verify that all accessories are linked to the ground lug and connected to the to the control system. A minimum flow of 68 LPM (18 GPM) is required. Make sure that all valves are open in the hot tub plumbing and that the water flow is sufficient between the main pump and the water heater. Turn on the breaker. IN.FLO DRY-FIRE PROTECTION At start up, the in.flo’s detector verifies the water flow according to the following sequence: The Pump 1 or the circulation pump runs for a period of 2 to 5 minutes. The display will show “- – -“ during the flow verification. After this time, the system confirms if flow is adequate or not. If the flow is sufficient, the temperature of the water is displayed on the keypad screen. When the water has reached the consigned temperature plus 0.45°C (0.8°F), the water heater turns off. POWER UP AND BREAKER SETTING BREAKER SETTING 141 QUESTIONS CONCERNING CLEANING, WATER TREATMENT, AND MAINTENANCE What should I do if the filter of the hot tub is polluted? Clean the filter every week or two weeks with a jet of water. Periodically, depending on usage, soak the filter in water mixed with an antialgae agent for 1-2 hours, then rinse it. Should I shower before using the hot tub? Yes, thoroughly. Should the side cover of the hot tub be treated? The side cover is made from weather resistant plastic. It does not require treatment or maintenance (except if it is a cedar cover). How often should the water be changed if my hot tub has the in.clear water maintenance system? Does it maintain water quality? With the cutting-edge automated brominating in.clear system water only has to be changed approximately once every 6 months. This can be even longer if the hot tub is not used daily. Adding water and Trublu (sodium bromide) may be necessary if the water level decreases because of splashing or evaporation. Optional UV-C antibacterial agents, disinfectant, and a sterilization system are available for our hot tubs. These guarantee fresh and pure water using 30-50% fewer chemicals. What kind of water treatment do you recommend in case of communal use? In case of communal use we recommend the optional sand filtration device that comes in place of the standard antibacterial filter. In case of heavy usage we recommend the automated monitoring-, regulating-, and chemical dispenser device. I cannot stop the heavy foaming. Before using the hot tub we shower without using soap and I use the necessary chemicals. Did I use too little? As descriped in the user guide of the products, apply 1-2 cups of antifoaming agent to the hot tub water. Wait for the chemical to thoroughly mix with the water. Repeat if necessary. If the problem is still present, check and readjust the pH value. If foaming still occurs, disinfect the hot tub with an antialgae chemical containing free active chlorine, then drain, clean, rinse, and refill the hot tub. PREPARATION OF THE INSTALLATION SITE What are the most important concerns when selecting theinstallation site? The installation site should be prepared in accordance with the installation guide by a professional. The devices can only be installed and set up at appropriate installation sites. Make sure there is an appropriate cable length, electric supply, a 30mA protective relay, and with certain products a floor drain. Is a floor drain necessary for an indoor hot tub? Building a floor drain is mandatory! TECHNICAL DATE OF THE PRODUCT, USAGE What type of water circulation engine is used for massage hot tubs? Our massage hot tubs are equipped with Laing low power (110W) energy saving, silent circulating motor pumps. What is the maximal temperature that does not damage the hot tub? The water temperature can be adjusted to between 26 and 40 degrees Celsius. What is the recommended optimal water temperature? 32-38 degrees Celsius. If young children are using the hot tub, lower temperature is recommended. Always check the water temperature before the child steps into the hot tub and make sure that the temperature is suitable for the child. Can the system freeze? Is there a sensor that starts emergency heating in case of freezing? In the winter the unused hot tub should be winterized. After draining the hot tub we will defrost the system as necessary, meaning that we will remove the water retained by the engine and the pipes. For details and pricing please call our customer service. If the hot tub remains in use during the winter, the engines start if there is a danger of freezing and heat the water to 8°C Can the system be programmed to start heating at certain time? There is no way of setting a time and date for automatic heating. Because of concerns of energy efficiency heating the water to greater temperatures is not recommended in case of multiple weekly usage. Can the hot tub be controlled remotely? Our premium category massage hot tubs come with a Balboa Colossus control system that can be controlled via an app designed for IOS and Android (Windows is not supported). The app makes remote access and control possible. You can access the controls of your massage hot tub anywhere, adjust the water temperature, circulation, lighting, and check the status of the hot tub from afar. The jet of the hot tub shuts down automatically after 15 minutes of operation. Can I restart it immediately, or do I have to wait? Can I restart it as many time as I want without a break? How does this affect the jets? The hydromassage system shuts down every 15 minutes for security reasons – to avoid possible muscle soreness. It can be restarted for any amount of times and without a break. Is this the same for the bubble massage function? Yes, it is the same for the bubble massage function. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS When we do not use the hot tub often, mostly in the winter (around 3 times a week), which is the most energy efficient setting, taking into account the energy necessary for reheating? We only use it a couple of times a week, 37 degrees Celsius is our favourite temperature. Should it be in Sleep or Economy mode? Should I switch to the Standard setting only when heating the hot tub? Or should it always stay on Standard? If you only use it 2-3 times a week, the most efficient way is to keep the water at operational temperature (38 degrees Celsius). Thanks to the excellent insulation and the thermo cover this setting requires less energy than letting the water cool down and reheating it before usage. The heating system automatically switches on in case the water temperature drops more than half a degree Celsius. In the summer the Economy setting is recommended as the external temperature is usually high. Only use the Sleep setting if you are not using the hot tub for a longer period of time (3-4 weeks). Does the hot tub switch back to the last used setting if there is a power outage? When connecting the hot tub to the power supply it switches to charging mode. Push the “Temp” button to set it to the Standard setting and it will display the water temperature. The hot tub will switch back to the last used setting after a power outage. Can the filtration cycle only be programmed to 1-8 hour periods? Is there something like a 3-hour period? What is ideal and what is adequate? The filtration cycle can be set to 1-8 hour or continuous settings. If you have a hot tub equipped with the in.clear automatic water management system, a daily 8-hour circulation period is recommended to produce necessary amounts of bromine. The 8-hour (2×4 hour) setting is ideal. Can the operating device for our hot tub be placed in an external location where only the staff can access it? The operating device can only be placed 5 meters cable length away from the hot tub. What is the service life of the UV-C lamp? If the filtration cycle is set to the continuous (0-24) setting, then the service life of the UV-C lamp is 8000-9000 hours. With continuous setting the most effective water disinfectant system can reduce the necessary amount of chemicals by 30-50% depending on usage. IN.CLEAR Why is the water turbulent/oily? If the water is turbulent or oily after heavy usage, perform a refill and wait 24 hours until conditions are suitable for usage. If the problem persists, contact your service provider to perform the necessary water equilibriation. Does sodium-bromide vaporize? No. Sodium-bromide will only leave the hot tub in case of splashing, leaking, or draining. What should I use to clean my hot tub? Only nonfoaming nonacerbic cleaning products available at professional dealerships. If the in.clear bromine generator is switched off, is the hot tub still being disinfected by sodium bromide? No. The in.clear system does not disinfect while switched off. However, if there is a level of bromine left over in the water, it will continue the disinfecting process. The In.clear system can be switched off for certain periods of time and the hot tub will remain nice and clean. Sodium bromide becomes bromine when it passes through the electrodes of the in.clear system, while the pump connected to the in.clear system is operational.
