NOTE: Not maintaining your water can result in

damage of your spa jets, filter, etc. This

damage, due to incorrect water maintenance, is

not covered under warranty.

Filter Maintenance

As with any water filtering system, the filter

cartridges may become clogged with particles or

with calcification that will result in reduced water

flow. In your QCA Spa, it is important to maintain

a clean, unobstructed filtering system. This not

only provides the maximum performance from the

hydrotherapy jets, but allows the 24 hour filtration

system to function effectively. We recommend the

filter cartridges be cleaned (either spraying clean

with water or soaking to dissolve minerals)

EVERY MONTH.

WARNING: Failure to maintain the cartridges in

a clean, unobstructed manner will result in reduced

water flow through the heater assembly which may

cause the Heater High Limit Thermostat to "trip".

If this high limit "trip" occurs during sub-freezing

temperatures and goes unnoticed, the spa water

may freeze. Any damage to the spa (from

freezing), which is a direct cause of poor

maintenance, will not be covered by warranty.

Removing the Filter Cartridge

The cartridge of the in-line filter must be removed

for cleaning. This is accomplished as follows:

1. Remove filter lid.

2. Twist and lift built-in chemical dispenser and

remove the cartridge.

3. Remove the filter cartridge from the housing

and clean, or replace it with a new cartridge.

Cleaning the Filter Cartridge

1. Hold the cartridge in an upright position and

spray downward into the pleats of the fabric

with a garden hose to flush away debris.

Cleaning will be easier if the garden hose

nozzle can be adjusted to a single jet spray.

2. After hosing off the cartridge, it is highly

recommended that the cartridge be allowed to

soak in a filter-cleaning solution available

through your local dealer. Soak the cartridge

for 24 hours to remove body oils and body

lotions that become impregnated in the

cartridge fabric during filtration. Rinse the

cartridge thoroughly before placing it back in

the filter housing.

NOTE: If two filter cartridges are available, it is

recommended to allow filter cartridge to dry

before new usage.

3. If the cartridge is coated with hard, solid

material, it may indicate a calcium build-up on

the fabric. This build-up can be removed by

soaking the cartridge in proper cartridge

cleaning solution available through your QCA

dealer. When using this solution, follow

instructions provided on label.

4. If the cartridge is coated with algae or bacteria,

it should be soaked in a solution of one part

chlorine and four parts water in a plastic

container. As a safety precaution, rubber gloves

should be worn while handling this solution.

Brushing the solution into the fabric pleats may

also help remove algae or bacteria. Rinse the

cartridge thoroughly before placing it back into

the filter housing.

Observe manufacturers recommended safety

procedures when using acid or chlorine. Always

rinse the cartridge thoroughly after applying these

solutions.

5. Clean the filter housing and filter housing O-

ring. Lubricate the O-ring with silicone

lubricant.

6. Return the filter cartridge to the housing and

replace the housing lid.

Vacation Care Instructions

If you plan to be away, follow these instructions to

maintain the water quality:

Short Time Periods (3-5 Days):

1. Adjust the pH by following the instructions

outlined in the water quality and maintenance

section.

2. Sanitize the water by following the "super-

chlorination" procedures and lock your thermal

cover in place using the tie-downs.

3. Upon your return, sanitize the water

(superchlorinate, if necessary) and balance the

pH.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Spa water oxidizers such as

dichlor chlorine maintain their level of

effectiveness substantially longer in cool water

than in hot water.

Long Time Periods (4-15 Days):

Prior to leaving:

1. Adjust the pH as required.

2. Sanitize the water by following the SUPER-

CHLORINATION procedures.

3. Upon your return, check the level of sanitation

of your spa water. If the chlorine test reads "O"

and you have been gone an extended period of

time, SUPER-CHLORINATE the spa water to

ensure all organisms or algae are oxidized.

Turn the Temperature Control clockwise to

return it to the original setting. The spa water

will be safe for you to use once the Free

Chlorine Residual has dropped below 5.0 ppm.

Prevention of Freezing

The QCA Spa has been designed and engineered

for year-round use in any climate. The energy

efficiency of the spa may decrease during these

cold periods, as the heater will cycle more

frequently. If a freeze condition is detected, the
