Your Caldera
®
spa has been thoroughly tested during the manufacturing process to ensure reliability and long-term customer satisfaction. A small amount of water may
have remained in the plumbing after testing and, as a result, may have spotted the spa shell or the spa siding prior to delivery. Before filling the spa, clear all debris from
the spa and wipe the spa shell clean with a soft rag.
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE READ AND FOLLOWED EXACTLY TO ENSURE A SUCCESSFUL START-UP OR REFILL.
CAUTIONS
Do not fill the spa with hot water, as tripping of the high-limit thermostat may result.•
DO NOT CONNECT POWER TO AN EMPTY SPA• . Power to the spa automatically activates critical components within the spa, such as controls,
heater, circulation pump and other systems. If power is supplied to these components prior to the spa being filled, the components will be
damaged, and this may result in a non-warranty component failure.
Do not use your spa after filling until all of the steps listed below are completed.•
Do not add chlorine if treating your spa with polyhexamethylene biguanide (Biguanide, PHMB, eg. BaquaSpa•
®
or Soft Soak
®
) sanitizer.
Before filling your spa for the first time, remove the equipment compartment doors and check to ensure that the unions on either side of the pump •
are hand-tight.
Close external drain valve and remove the skimmer basket, weir and filter. Then insert the end of a garden hose into the filter hole and begin filling the spa. The 1.
water level of your Caldera spa should be maintained at a level one inch above the highest jet in the spa. Reinstall the skimmer basket, weir and filter once the spa
is filled.
IMPORTANT: Watkins Manufacturing Corporation does not recommend that the spa be filled with “softened” water, as this may damage the spa’s equipment.
Install SPA FROG2.
®
bromine and mineral cartridges.
a. Turn off power to the spa.
b. Unscrew SPA FROG cap on top edge of spa.
c. Turn handle counter-clockwise.
d. Lift cartridge holder up and out of spa.
e. Turn top cap of mineral cartridge to setting #6. (The mineral cartridge should last 4 months.) Turn top cap of bromine cartridge to setting #6.
NOTE: Adjust bromine cartridge setting down by one setting each day until a residual of 1.0 - 2.0 ppm level of bromine is established. (The bromine cartridge
should last 2 - 4 weeks.)
f. Snap bromine cartridge in at bottom of holder and mineral cartridge on top.
NOTE: It is important that the bromine cartridge is on bottom; otherwise, the bromine cartridge could be dispensed prematurely.
g. Reinstall cartridge holder into spa, push down, and twist clockwise.
h. Replace the SPA FROG cap, and reconnect power to the spa.
WARNING: High sanitizer levels can cause discomfort to the user’s eyes, lungs and skin. Always allow the sanitizer level to fall to the recommended range before
using the spa.
AFTER 3. the spa has been filled with water and the equipment compartment door is secured, power must be applied to the spa.
Activate power to the subpanel from the main house panel first.•
Open the door of the electrical subpanel and reset the GFCI breakers.•
Close and secure the subpanel door.•
The jet pump(s), heating system and all internal plumbing will achieve a partial prime as the spa is filled. To activate the spa, press the AIR button (except for 4.
Martinique
®
and Kauai
®
), followed by JETS 2 (except for Kauai), followed by JETS 1. Once the jet system is fully operational (as indicated by strong, non-surging
jets), priming of the spa is complete. Turn off spa. If you do not feel a steady stream of water from your jets, refer to the instructions for priming the pump in the
SPA TROUBLESHOOTING section in the back of this manual.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that the air control valves are open by turning each one counterclockwise and checking to see that all the diverters are in position 1 or
position 2 (see illustration on diverter valves).
Adjust Total Alkalinity (TA) to 80 - 180 ppm, Calcium Hardness (CH) to 150 - 400 ppm, then spa water pH to between 7.2 and 7.8. These procedures are listed in 5.
the “Water Quality and Maintenance” section.
OPERATION NOTE: Adjust the Total Alkalinity first, as out-of balance TA will affect your ability to adjust the pH correctly and will prevent the sanitizer from operating
effectively.
IMPORTANT: Add spa water chemicals directly over the filter compartment (remove filter lid) with the jet pump on for at least ten minutes (press “CLEAN” button on
the control panel). Make sure all the diverter valves are set to the middle position.
Set the temperature control to the desired temperature between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C), then place the vinyl cover on the spa and allow the water 6.
temperature to stabilize (approximately 24 hours). Make sure you secure the cover in place using the cover locks. Periodically check the spa water temperature.
When the water temperature climbs above 90°F (32°C), proceed to the next step.
Press “CLEAN” button on the control panel, this will run the Jet Pump 1 (Jets 1) for a total of ten minutes to circulate the spa water. Make sure all the diverter 7.
valves are set to the middle position. Once the jets shut off, test the spa water for bromine residual. If the residual is between 1 and 2 ppm, go on to the next step.
If the residual is less than 1 ppm, repeat previous step until a bromine residual of 1-2 ppm is established.
Recheck the Total Alkalinity (TA) at 80-180 ppm, Calcium Hardness (CH) at 150-400 ppm, then spa water pH at between 7.2 and 7.8.8.
OPERATION NOTE: Make sure you adjust your Total Alkalinity first, as an out-of-balance condition will affect your ability to adjust the pH correctly, and will prevent
the sanitizer from operating effectively. The spa is ready for use when the spa water has circulated and the bromine level remains between 1 ppm and
2-ppm.
