Important Safety Instructions

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

1) READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2) WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.

Keep spa cover locked when not in use.

3) Wiring should be done by a qualified electrician, according to the directions listed under “Set-up And Delivery Guidelines”, and

“Wiring Diagram”. A GFCI must be used.

4) DANGER: Risk of injury. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible. Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less that the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.

5) DANGER: Risk of electrical shock. Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum #8 AWG solid copper conductor to the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for this purpose.

6) DANGER: Risk of electrical shock. Do not permit any electrical appliance, such as light, telephone, radio or television within 5ft.

(1.5m) of spa.

7) WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury:

• The water temperature in a spa should never exceed 104°F. A water temperature of 104°F is considered safe for a healthy adult.

Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.

• Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal injury during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult their physician before use.

• Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature regulating devices varies.

• The use of alcohol or medications before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

- 5 -

Important Safety Instructions (cont.)

• Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.

• Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

8) The causes, symptoms and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal temperature of

98.6 degrees F.

The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:

• Failure to feel heat

• Failure to recognize the need to exit the spa

• Unawareness of impending hazards

• Fetal injury in pregnant women

• Physical inability to exit the spa or hot tub

• Unconsciousness resulting in the potential of drowning.

9) Never touch or come in contact with any electrical accessory when in your spa or when your body is wet.

10) Prior to performing any service to the Spa Pack, turn off ALL power to the system at the main power source breaker.

11) Never turn equipment pack on unless spa is filled with water 2" above the skimmer.

CAUTION: Each persons body and circulatory system has different tolerances and responds differently to warm/hot water immersion.

Most people in good health find a water temperature of about

102ºF to be satisfying and limit time in water at this temperature to

20-30 minutes. Use of alcoholic beverages and certain medications may affect the way your body's system reacts to warm water/hot immersion.

CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN FOR RECOMMENDATIONS.

Basic Introductory Information

Congratulations on the purchase of your new spa. Our goal is to provide you with a warm and relaxing spa which incorporates a soothing water massage. In order to maximize the pleasure of your spa, you will need to understand how it works.

The following operating and maintenance instructions are very important and must be followed carefully. With proper care and maintenance your spa will provide you with years of satisfaction with minimum effort.

• The pump and heater should be operated a minimum of two hours per day for cleaning and heating.

• The length of time required to heat your spa to the desired water temperature will vary, depending on the air temperature, season, and wind velocity. We highly recommend using a vinyl hard cover to minimize heat loss and to protect your spa when not in use.

Covers are available from your local Dynasty Spa dealer.

• The replaceable filter cartridge is trouble free and easy to clean. A routine cleaning is the best practice. Make sure the pump is off, then remove the cartridge. Wash it off using a water hose with a pressure nozzle and then reassemble. This should be done on a monthly basis.

• Keep the spa water level 2" above the skimmer. Never allow the water level to drop below the bottom of the skimmer opening. If the water level is too low, the skimmer will allow air into the water lines of the pump, causing it to lose its prime (water - flow). Running the pump without water flow will damage the pump seal assembly and could possibly result in further equipment damage.

• If your spa has a natural wood skirt or if you purchased a gazebo, we recommend applying a wood sealer of your choice (always follow application instructions) to protect the finish. Repeat as directions suggest.

• You should clean your spa at least every 3-4 months. Drain the spa water and use a liquid cleanser such as 409 or Fantastic. DO

NOT use hard brushes or abrasive cleaners. Fill with regular tap water and chemically treat the water for a clean and healthy spa.

• CAUTION: Cover must be kept on spa at all times when spa is drained or winterized. Direct exposure to sunlight can damage plastic parts and interior surface, jets, or any interior components.

Damage caused by exposure to the sun will not be covered under warranty.

• WARNING: Do not use soft water. It may harm your acrylic.

General Pre-Operation Instructions

Priming Pump For Electric Packs

The Power pack system is located under the skirting. The equipment can be serviced by simply removing the door. The door is located on the side of the spa where three panels are located, usually on the side of the spa with the lounger, or the side where the topside control panel is located.

It is important to make sure that all of the air is out of the pump(s) before operating. To do this follow procedures below:

• Turn off power at the breaker

• Make sure the gate valves are open

• Fill the spa with water going thru the filter

• Turn the power on at the breaker

• Start the pump on low speed and water should start circulating within one to two minutes. If water does not start circulating, turn pump from low to high until prime is picked up.

• If pump still does not prime, please see “Trouble Shooting Guide” located in the back of this manual.

Air Controls & Diverter Valve Controls

Air Control

Each spa is equipped with air controls (venturies). The purpose of these controls is to regulate the mixture of air and water that flows through the jets. If an optional blower is installed, air is also pushed through the air controls

(venturies) for maximum output. If your spa has a master massage jet located in the foot well, the spa will be equipped with an air control specifically for the master massage jet. This third control operates the same as the others. Colors/style may vary from photo. An

Air Control is the smallest of the valve controls.

Mini Diverter Valve

This valve controls the water flow of neck jets, shoulder jets, and waterfalls (if so equipped) located throughout the spa. A simple clockwise turn of the handle will increase to the maximum output allowed. Another turn in the opposite direction will decrease / turn off the jet. Colors/style may vary from photo. A Mini Diverter Valve is the medium size of the valve controls.

Water Diverter Valve

The Water Diverter Valve controls the output of the pump(s) water flow to either side of the spa, or it will provide even water flow to all jets if left in the half way position. The purpose of this valve is to increase or decrease the output of one side or another for maximum or minimum water flow in case of one or two person usage. This valve is also used to turn the master massage jet on and off, if so equipped. Colors/style may vary from photo. A

Water Diverter Valve is the largest of the valve controls.

Although all three controls look similar in appearance, they are easily discernable by size. The Air Control is the smallest, the Mini Diverter

Valve is medium in size, and the Water Diverter Valve is the largest .

Pictured left to right are:

Filter Maintenance

Filtration starts as soon as water flow is steady through the filter. The filter cartridge removes body oil and debris from the spa water, as they can cause flow resistance. A dirty cartridge will decrease flow and may prevent the spa from heating properly. Therefore, regular filter cleaning is essential.

Cleaning and Replacing Filter Cartridge

Your Dynasty Spa filter(s) have been designed for quick and easy maintenance. Depending on model, your Dynasty Spa will have one of the two following styles of filtration systems.

Enclosed Style

• Turn off power at the breaker.

• Open filter door and expose filter cartridge(s) by pulling door toward center of spa until door opens completely.

• Unscrew filter cartridge(s) and remove.

• Clean with a garden hose equipped with a high pressure nozzle, or soak in filter cartridge cleaner if necessary, or at every other regularly scheduled cleaning. Rinse filter thoroughly before installing.

• Screw clean cartridge back into filter enclosure and return filter door to original position.

Open Style

• Turn off power at the breaker.

• Remove basket from filter canister, remove filter cartridge and clean with a garden hose equipped with a high pressure nozzle, or soak in filter cartridge cleaner if necessary or at every other regularly scheduled cleaning. Rinse filter thoroughly before installing.

• Place clean cartridge in filter canister

• Replace basket weir in filter canister.

Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh

Cleaning Your Spa Water

You need to keep your spa clean and ready to use. When you enter your spa, you bring in as much contamination as 50 people would in a normal size swimming pool! Because your spa is such a small, enclosed environment, it needs to be a sanitary place. We accomplish this with a simple three step process:

1) Balance

2) Filtration

3) Sanitation

The water that comes from your tap at home is fine for showers or bathing, because it is drained immediately after use. In a spa, your water is used for up to three months. Hot water is a breeding ground for bacteria, so sanitizing becomes necessary, as well as maintaining a specific mineral balance. Having that mineral balance in place ensures that the water, which is naturally corrosive to metal, will not cause damage to the spa equipment. We recommend monthly water testing.

WARNING: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.

WARNING: Please be careful with chemicals - damage to the surface of the spa can occur due to the improper use of chemicals such as trichlor or chlorine, chemical tablets, acids or spa cleaners.

Do not let undissolved chemicals lie on the surface of the spa. Damage from chemical misuse is not covered under warranty. Improper water chemistry balance can damage the spa surfaces and/or equipment, and is not covered under your warranty.

Filling Spa With Water

When filling the spa, use 2 ounces of SODIUM BROMIDE to create a bromide reserve. When using BROMINATING TABLETS in a floating dispenser, two to three tablets will treat up to 500 gallons of water. For a chlorine system, use CHLORINATING GRANULES (1/2 oz. per 500 gallons).

- 16 -

Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh

Once the spa has been filled to the correct level and pumps are primed and running add:

1) STAIN & SCALE REMOVER- This prevents staining, rust and corrosion, caused by metals in the source water. One bottle will treat up to 500 gallons for up to 3 months.

2) CALCIUM BOOSTER (If Needed) - Calcium booster treats the water if low calcium hardness is a problem in your area. It will help prevent equipment corrosion and foaming by raising the spa's water hardness level to an acceptable range of 120 ppm.

3) pH STABILIZER - It will properly adjust and hold the pH for up to 3 months.

Water Testing

Your Dynasty Spas Dealer is equipped to perform a thorough analysis of your spa water. Take a one liter sample to the store and they will advise you on the products necessary to properly balance and care for your spa. Unbalanced spa water can quickly damage your equipment.

Your Dynasty Spas Dealer will advise you on how to protect your investment.

Balance

Spa water must have the correct chemical balance. Unbalanced water can irritate eyes, corrode the equipment, leave mineral deposits, and decrease the effectiveness of the sanitizer.

Balanced water means establishing proper balance among Total

Alkalinity, pH, Calcium Hardness and Total dissolved solids.

- 17 -

Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh

(An Overview)

Monthly - For Equipment Protection

CALCIUM BOOSTER (If Needed) - Calcium booster treats the water if low calcium hardness is a problem in your area. It will help prevent equipment corrosion and foaming by raising the spa's water hardness level to an acceptable range of 120 ppm.

Filter Cleaning

To keep your filter free of grease, grime, and oil. Clean the filter with SPA CARTRIDGE FILTER CLEAN. One 16 oz. bottle treats a

55 square foot filter. See Filter Maintenance section for location and diagram.

As Needed

Surface Cleaning

Between refills and as needed, clean the surface using SPA

MULTI-PURPOSE CLEANER. For tough scale & stains, use

STAIN & SCALE REMOVER.

Surface Protection

To protect and seal the spa surface, use SPA FAST GLOSS every time you drain and clean the spa.

Water Balance

Adjust the pH quickly and easily with pH STABILIZER. It will properly adjust and hold the pH for up to 3 months. Note: Not recommended for calcium hardness levels above 200 ppm. Use

SPA UP to raise pH and SPA DOWN to lower pH.

Sanitizing

Use 2 ounces of SODIUM BROMIDE to create a bromide reserve.

When using BROMINATING TABLETS in a floating basket, two to three tablets will treat up to 500 gallons of water. For a chlorine system, use CHLORINATING GRANULES (1/2 oz. per 500 gallons).

- 18 -

Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh

Mineral Protection

STAIN & SCALE REMOVER - This prevents staining, rust and corrosion, caused by metals in the source water. One bottle will treat up to 500 gallons for up to 3 months.

Foam Control

To control foaming, use SPA FOAM DOWN. For added convenience, use just 3 drops of SPA FOAM DOWN

CONCENTRATE.

Aromatic Control

To make your spa even more relaxing and enjoyable, add

ESSCENTS fragrance as often as you desire. The optional

Aromatherapy canister requires the use of beads, not liquid. With 8 exotic scents to choose from, you'll be sure to discover one that sets the perfect mood.

Skin Conditioning

To prevent dry skin, pour SKIN SOFTENER directly into the spa. It smoothes and moisturizes.

Algae Control

For spas with green or yellow algae, use SPA ALGAECIDE to kill and prevent further algae growth.

Do not leave your water treatment products outside. If subjected to extreme heat or cold, their effectiveness can be impaired.

KEEP ALL CHEMICALS OUT OF THE REACH OF

CHILDREN!

- 19 -

Draining Your Spa

Because your spa holds a relatively small amount of water, contaminants such as body oil, perspiration, dirt, hair, etc., may become quite concentrated. For this reason, the water should be drained and replaced every three months depending on use.

• Turn off power at the breaker.

• Hook up a garden hose to the hose bib located on the exterior corner of the cabinet. With hose still attached to bib, turn counterclockwise one half turn and then pull out for water to drain completely.

• When water begins to drain out of the hose, be sure to drain the water to a convenient place.

After draining is completed, turn the hose bib off by pushing in and turn clockwise one half turn. Remove the hose. Wipe down the inside of your spa making sure your surface is dry and free from standing water. We recommend that after draining or cleaning your spa that you put the cover back on. Avoid exposing the acrylic surface to direct sunlight for an extended period of time. Extended exposure can cause surface fading or cracking, which could void the acrylic warranty.

- 20 -

Note: Be sure that hose is on a downward grade to properly drain spa.

Winterizing Your Spa

In areas of the country where the temperatures drop below

32° F, it is important to follow these directions:

When winterizing the spa, we recommend putting RV Antifreeze in the spa and running it before draining the spa.

1) If the spa is not going to be used, drain completely. Be sure all water is removed. Break or loosen unions at each end of pump to ensure water from pump area is removed. Remove pump freeze plugs if so equipped. Using a shop vacuum, vacuum all jets thoroughly to remove any water left over in the plumbing lines.

2) Do not turn unit off with water in the spa. Frozen water may rupture plumbing. Freeze damage repairs are not covered under warranty.

3) Remove and clean filter cartridge. Store cartridge in a secure place to prevent freezing. If the spa is going to be used, maintain normal operating procedures and ensure cover is in place when possible.

Freeze ups or damage caused by freezing are not covered under warranty!

WINTERIZE YOUR SPA!

- 21 -

Maintaining Your Spa Cover

Proper Maintenance For Your Dynasty Spa Cover

1) Use a soft broom to remove accumulation after every snowfall or ice storm.

2) Splash cool tap water on the hardware to free them if they become frozen shut. WD-40™ will keep the lock free, but apply carefully because it can damage the cabinet finish.

3) We recommend a good treatment with Vinyl Conditioner before the first snow or ice. If possible, treat during the winter too.

4) Monitor your water chemistry. Even it the spa is not used regularly, improper water chemistry can cause a mildew build-up on the cover. Clean, PH controlled water will prolong the life of the cover.

5) If mildew is found, remove foam cores from the vinyl encasement.

Mix water, a teaspoon of mild dish washing soap and a cup of bleach. With a soft bristle brush, scrub the inside and outside of the vinyl encasement thoroughly. Then take a washcloth and wipe down each foam core, rinse thoroughly. Place the encasement in the sun and foam cores in the shade to dry. Once everything is thoroughly dry, spray the cores and encasement with a mildew inhibitor (like Pine Sol). Allow to dry completely, then reassemble.

The key here, of course, is to maintain proper water chemistry to avoid mildew.

6) We suggest rotating the cover every six months to maintain even wear. Unzip the cover, remove the foam cores, turn over and reassemble.
