Programming the Filtration Cycle
Filtration
Proper filtration is an important key to maintaining the clarity of your spa’s water. The filter system is
designed for unsurpassed effectiveness at removing debris and suspensions from the water
anytime the water is circulating.
The Aquatic Fitness System comes with six pre-programmed filtration cycles (F1-F6) and two
lockout (L1 & L2) modes. Of the six filter cycles, three cycles are in the standard mode and three
cycles are in the economy mode.
To change the filter cycle or to enable or disable a lockout mode, press and
hold both the WARMER and the COOLER buttons for 3 seconds. This enters
the programming mode and allows you to select your filtration cycle. The
display will show F1 through L2. The current filter setting
will be displayed in the window.
Use the WARMER and COOLER buttons to scroll up or
down between the filtering modes. The filter cycles are as
follows:
• Standard Mode: F1, F2, F3
• Economy Mode: F4, F5, F6
• Lockout Mode: L1, L2
Standard Mode and Economy Mode are used primarily to determine how to heat your water. When
you select a filter cycle of F1, F2, or F3, you are selecting Standard Mode. In Standard Mode the
temperature of the water is used to determine the need for heat. Whenever the temperature of the
water drops to 2°F (≅1.1°C) below your SET temperature, the pump will start and the water will heat
until the water is 2°F (≅1.1°C) above your SET temperature. In Standard Mode, heating the water is
independent of the filter cycles.
When you select a filter cycle of F4, F5, or F6, you are selecting Economy Mode. In Economy Mode,
the water only heats when the filter us running. In Economy Mode, heating the water is dependent
on the filter cycle.
When you select options L1, or L2, you are selecting the
suspend filter operation or control unauthorized access to your system.
Lockout Mode, which allows you to

Standard Mode
Standard Mode heating is automatically controlled by the loss of water temperature. If the spa
water drops 2°F (≅1.1°C) below the set temperature, the low speed pump and the heater will
automatically turn on. They will both remain on until the water temperature reaches the
temperature set point.
In this mode, the filter cycle operates independently of the need for heat to ensure
proper filtration.

On all Dimension One Spas, when the water temperature is 1° F (≅0.55° C) below the set
temperature the heater will turn on and remain on until the water temperature rises to 1° F (≅0.55° C)
above the set temperature. To prevent the spa from overheating, the circulation pump turns off
when the water temperature rises 2° F (≅1.1° C) above the set temperature. When the water
temperature cools down to the set temperature, the circulation pump will turn on.
The circulation pump will run for short periods when the water temperature is 2° F
(≅1.1° C) above set temperature to provide optimum operation.
Smart Heat
Smart Heat optimizes heat recovery using the amperage that you have available. Along with
computerized load sharing, that automatically recognizes the number of jet pumps in use,
compares it with the available power, Smart Heat recognizes the difference between the set
temperature and the actual water temperature, and adjusts the heater to optimize the heater
output.

Routine Equipment Maintenance
Draining Your Aquatic Fitness System
Risk of Accidental Drowning. Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent
unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot
use this system unless they are supervised at all times.
All models are gravity drained. Do not drain water onto your lawn or plants unless all of the bromine
or chlorine has dissipated from the water. The sanitizer in your water will dissipate quickly by leaving
the cover off and exposing the water to direct sunlight. Drain and replace your water every six
months. For heavy use, you may wish to change the water more frequently.
You may purchase an optional submersible pump from your dealer or from our
Virtual Showroom at
www.d1spas.com to provide quicker drainage.
Filter Cleaning
AquaFit™ Dual Temp
Always turn off the power to the system before
cleaning the filter elements. Your system is equipped
with three top access filter cartridges – one on the
spa-side and two on the pool-side. We recommend
that you clean the filters every month as preventative
maintenance.
To clean the skimmer filter cartridge, remove the access lid covering the filter area. Lift the center
float of the skimmer assembly until it is fully extended. Hold the centerpiece of the assembly and
turn it counter clockwise until the flats of the basket are aligned with the securing tabs. Then pull the

Aquatic Fitness System
2005 Owner’s Manual
AquaFit™ and AquaPro™
Always turn off the power to the Aquatic Fitness System before cleaning the filter elements. Refer
to the filter manufacturer’s manual for detailed instructions on removing the filter.
It is recommended that filters be cleaned every month as preventative maintenance. You should
clean the cartridge with a high-pressure garden hose. Every other cleaning, you should also soak
the cartridge in a filter cleaning solution, rinse it thoroughly, and then reinstall it. After cleaning, be
sure to run the pump(s) for a few minutes at high speed, and then return to the heating mode.
Be sure the slice valves and the shut off valve are closed before changing or
cleaning your Aquatic Fitness System filter.
Light Bulb Replacement
All systems are equipped with Dynamic LED Lights. To change the light:
1. Turn the power off and drain the system below the level of
the light.
2. Using the special tool provided in the owner’s manual
packet, unscrew the cover for the light housing.
3. Remove the old light and install the new light.
4. Use the special tool to replace the cover for the light
housing.
5. Check to ensure proper operation of the new light
before refilling the system.
Do not attempt to remove the light housing cover without lowering the water level
below the light housing cover.
Do not attempt to remove the light housing cover without the special tool. If you
are not able to locate it, contact your Dimension One Spas Dealer to have one

Aquatic Fitness System
2005 Owner’s Manual
Surface Care – Shell
Your equipment has a very high quality finish. Stains and dirt will generally not adhere to the surface.
We recommend cleaning the entire shell surface with Dimension One Spas’ Water Line Cleaner. You
may also use Dimension One Spas’ ph/Alkalinity Increaser or a 50/50 solution of denatured alcohol
and water. Be sure to thoroughly rinse the shell. After cleaning, you will want to restore your hot tub
shell’s original luster by using Dimension One Spas’ Poli-Gloss.
Do not use caustic solutions as they may damage the hot tub shell surface and
void the warranty. If you are using Dimension One Spas’ pH/Alkalinity Increaser to
clean your hot tub shell, be careful not to get it on the wood skirt. It may stain the
wood.
Do not use citrus-based cleaners on the shell surface.
Care for the Wood Spa Cabinet
When properly cared for, the wood cabinet of your hot tub will maintain its beauty for many years. All
woods react differently to the elements by expanding and contracting. To protect your beautiful
wood finish, re-stain it every 3-6 months, which serves as a good sealing agent for the wood.
Please note that the cabinet is not warranted against reaction to natural weather conditions. The
wood must be properly maintained. You may visit the Dimension One Spas website at
www.D1Spas.com to get the proper formula for your stain. This stain should be available from your
local hardware store.
Special Cold Weather Instructions
Slipping into your steamy water on a snowy, winter night is a refreshing experience. Many times,
people who could never imagine being outside in winter weather, find themselves spending their
winter nights doing just that, while relaxing in their spa with family and friends. Therefore, the best
winterizing tips of all are to enjoy use of your system year-round.
All systems manufactured by Dimension One Spas are designed for rigorous winter use. They are
insulated to keep operating costs down and to protect plumbing and equipment whenever the
products are operational. Each product line incorporates freeze protection mode to maintain water
circulation during freezing conditions whenever the system has proper electrical power and water
level. Therefore, a fully operational system is your number one defense against freeze-damage.
If you find it completely necessary to drain your water during the winter months, in an area where
freezing conditions may exist, please adhere to all of the instructions in this section to minimize the
risk of freeze damage. Failure to complete any of the steps satisfactorily will increase the chance of
freeze damage, as small amounts of water trapped in pipes will expand as it freezes, and may result
in damaged plumbing lines or fittings.
Dimension One Spas does not recommend that you drain your system for the
winter. Freeze damage is specifically not covered by Your Warranty.

Aquatic Fitness System
2005 Owner’s Manual
Items Required for Winterizing
• Phillips head screwdriver
• 16” Channel-lock pliers
• High pressure air blower
• Commercial grade wet-vacuum
• 3 to 6 gallons (11.4 to 22.7 liters) of Non-Toxic Antifreeze
• Enough time (and patience) to perform all steps.
Procedure for Winterizing
1. Shut the power off to the system and make sure that it cannot be accidentally turned back
on.
2. Remove filter elements from filter assembly.
3. Drain water from the system using the drain fitting and garden hose or you may use a
submersible pump for faster draining.
4. Open the equipment compartment and locate pumps and heater.
5. Remove all of the drain plugs from each pump.
6. Loosen unions on both sides of each pump, and the heater if applicable.
7. Close all jets, by turning jet faces counter clockwise.
8. Put on your protective goggles in order to protect eyes from air, water, antifreeze or debris
exiting the jets or drains.
9. Insert the hose of a high-pressure air blower into the filter element fitting. Some models
may have 2 filters. Begin with the left-hand filter fitting, which will help evacuate water from
the circulation pump system. Then proceed to the right-hand filter fitting. When using air
blower on single-filter systems or the right-hand fitting on dual filter systems, rotate each of
the jet faces clockwise to open and counter-clockwise to close again. Do this to each jet
face, one jet at a time. Be careful, as water will be coming out of each jet fitting as you
perform this maneuver. Perform this operation, until no more water is coming from the jets.
10. Remove jet faces and insert the hose of a high-pressure air blower into each jet fitting.
Continue this process, until no more water comes out of any jet fitting or drain fitting and you
no longer hear water gurgling within the plumbing. Place all jet faces in a plastic bag and set
aside until you are ready to use your system again.
11.
AquaFit™ DT 19’ Only: Remove bleeder valve from the top of the filter canister area in the
spa area. Place hose of a high-pressure air blower into the bleeder fitting first. Confirm that
water mist is blowing from one or both of the circulation system; return jets in the footwell of
the system. You may also get some water mist blowing from the filter canister. Repeat this
process with the front-most bleeder fitting. Confirm that water mist is blowing from the drain
fittings of the jet pumps.
12. Place the hose of a commercial grade, wet-vacuum over each jet fitting, bleeder valve
fitting, and drain fitting to draw out as much remaining standing water as possible.
13. Remove drain hose bib assembly from the outside bottom of the system.
14. Use the wet-vacuum to remove standing water from the pumps and any other fittings within
the equipment compartment.
15. Read all Directions and Safety Precautions on the Swimming Pool or Recreational Vehicle
antifreeze bottle before opening and using. Ensure that it is non-toxic and safe for this use.
Beware of and follow all safety precautions.
32
Aquatic Fitness System
2005 Owner’s Manual
16. Using a long funnel, begin pouring non-toxic swimming pool or recreational vehicle water
system antifreeze into the filter canister fittings, bleeder valve fittings and jet fittings of your
system. Continue adding antifreeze until it comes out of the drain fittings or from the
opening you are pouring it into. You must complete this task for every jet fitting in the
system. Some of the antifreeze will seep into the system from the drain or jet fittings, which
is okay, the goal is to have anti-freeze collect in the areas of the plumbing that would
normally trap water. Use the funnel to also place antifreeze into the pump housing(s).
When pouring antifreeze into the rear-most bleeder valve fitting, you may see
antifreeze pouring from one or both of the circulation system-return fittings.
DO NOT USE AUTOMOTIVE COOLING SYSTEM ANTIFREEZE IN YOUR SYSTEM.
IT IS TOXIC AND HARMFUL TO HUMANS AND ANIMALS. CHECK WITH YOUR
LOCAL SPA DEALER OR RV DEALER TO PURCHASE
THAT IS COMPATIBLE WITH DRINKING WATER SYSTEMS!
NON-TOXIC ANTIFREEZE
17. Replace all equipment access panels onto the system.
18. Replace thermal cover and secure locking tabs. If your system is located in an area of high
snowfall, you may want to take one more extra precaution to safeguard the life of your
system cover. Span the cover with (2 or more) 2x4’s cut to length to reach the outside
edges of your cover. Be sure to place the 2x4’s on top of the cover parallel to the cover
hinge. Next, place a sheet of plywood, cut to fit each half of the cover, over the 2x4’s; this
will carry the load of a heavy snow load and prevent the cover from warping or breaking.
You can even tarp the system at this point for maximum protection.

Spring Time Startup
In the spring, or when you are ready to start the system back up, follow these instructions.
• Make sure o-rings for pumps are in place and undamaged.
• Make sure all the fittings that you had to loosen are tightened.
• Replace all jet fittings, pump drain plugs, hose bib drains and bleeder valves
• Fill the system up, as you would normally do.
• Turn the power back on.
• Run the jets on high speed for about 15 minutes.
• Drain the water.
• Put your filter(s) back in.
• Refill and treat chemically like you would during a normal water change.
Your system is equipped with automatic freeze protection. However, power
outages can cause your system equipment to freeze. During freezing
conditions, check your system frequently to ensure proper operation. Always
check your system after any power failure to ensure that it is operational.
Draining and not operating your system disables this feature.
