9. Heat your spa water
Now to heat your spa! To do this you should press the heater button on the left side of your external
unit (the sun symbol). A light will then be displayed and remain lit until the water has reached your
selected temperature (38°C is the default temperature). Once the desired temperature is reached,
the light will flash. Once the LCD display has flashed you will be able to adjust the water temperature
using the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the temperature. It is possible for the water to
be approximately 1-3°C different to the temperature selected.
The water in your spa heats up approximately 1°C per hour whilst the heater unit is switched on.
The indicator on the screen corresponds to the current water temperature. For health and safety
reasons the maximum temperature setting on the heater unit is 40°C. You should make sure you
have turned on the filtration system before you start heating the water. Put your hot tub cover on
to help the water heat up faster and retain heat for longer.
10. Chemical shock
Before you jump into your spa, you should first perform your spa chemical shock. When you set up
your hot tub for the first time its always important to add your start up chemicals. You need to perform
a hot tub shock to keep the water healthy and prevent foaming or cloudiness. Treating your water
prolongs its life such that you will not need to keep draining and cleaning your hot tub after each use.
Our Wave starter kit contains everything you need to get your spa up and running!
11. Guide on chemical shock
To chemical shock you should use either warm or cold water and when the water is higher than 25°C
mix your chlorine (granules are better for shocking) in a jug with warm water. Put 5 teaspoons of
granules into the jug of warm water and add this to the spa after mixing well. Activating the bubble
settings whilst doing this will help to disperse the chlorine around the water quicker. After you have
chlorinated your spa water, please leave the spa to sit for 24 hours before use. Remember to use
your test strips before jumping into the spa as some levels may still need adjusting before use.
Make sure alkalinity levels are right after checking the chlorine. pH can be altered as and when
required.
12. Maintenance
Regular maintenance of your tub is essential, especially keeping the correct pH levels! The most
ideal pH level is between 7.2 to 7.6 and the level should be tested two times a week whilst the tub
is filled, and always before use. A heaped teaspoon holds approximately 8g of granules and adding
a teaspoon of chlorine everyday will keep your spa water clean and healthy.
