LOCATION AND INSTALLATION

Proper planning is an important consideration when installing your new spa / hot tub. Site selection is a critical step and requires serious thought. Planning ahead makes the installation process easier. The following information is provided to assist you in site preparations.

1. Always comply with local building codes and obtain any necessary permits. You

may also need to consult with an engineer to address your specific design needs.

2. Contact an electrician to assess your electrical needs, install wiring, and assure

a safe operation.

3. Position your spa / hot tub with proper access to water, drainage, and electricity.

4. Place your spa / hot tub on a uniform solid, flat surface designed to properly

support its weight. For external installations, a 4-inch (10 cm) thick cement pad suffices.

5. For internal installations, check the load carrying capabilities of the floor on

which the spa will reside. Most homes meet the requirement of 250 pounds per square foot.

6. Assure that your spa / hot tub will fit into the space you have chosen and the

delivery route will accommodate its large size.

7. Provide adequate ventilation for the humidity created by your spa / hot tub. In

most cases, the Color Coordinated Cover is sufficient.

8. Protect the pump and all equipment from the weather by ensuring the cabinet

panels are secure at all times.

9. Allow 36 inches (1 meter) of unobstructed access to all sides of your spa / hot

tub for normal servicing. Your spa / hot tub is not designed to be recessed in the

ground or in a deck.

10. Consider positioning your spa / hot tub out

of or adequately protecting it from the wind. Just as people can get cold on cool / windy days so can your spa / hot tub. Windy environments can significantly increase operating costs.

11. Consider using an insulating pad. In cold

climates, the ground can rob heat from the

spa / hot tub and increase your operating

costs. Consider using a suitable, outdoor insulating pad in such environments.

BEFORE ADDING WATER

Before adding water, go through these simple steps now to prevent common issues when setting up your spa / hot tub for the first time. Verify that the following have all been rechecked.

1. Turn off all power at the main breaker panel.

2. Open the front panel to access the internal components.

3. Check that all gate valves are opened to the heater and all pumps.

4. Check that there are no obvious signs of loose wires or broken pipes.

5. Check that the two heater unions are tight.

Figure 6 - Valve Open/Closed

CAUTION:

Do not use a wrench. Over-tightening may cause damage to unions and gaskets, which will not be covered the Guarantee.

Figure 7 - Unions Tight

6. Check that the unions on all pumps are tight.

7. Clean out any foreign debris from within the service access area or inside of the

spa / hot tub itself.

8. With the drain open and filters removed, thoroughly rinse out the spa / hot tub with warm water until the drained water runs clear. Run water through the filtration canister and jet lines to remove any incidental dust, dirt, and debris that may have accumulated during shipment or installation. Drain all water completely.

9. Make sure that the spa / hot tub drain valve is closed and the cap is on tight.

10. Install the filters in the filtration canister.

11. Check that all of the jets are open (turned full counter-clockwise).

12. Now is the best time to clean and polish the surfaces of your spa.

Page 17

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

FILLING YOUR SPA

Now it's time to fill your spa / hot tub with water. Do not turn on the electricity until the spa / hot tub is completely filled. To properly fill your spa / hot tub:

1. Make sure that the filters (in the filtration canister) are gently screwed into place. Turn them clockwise until they stop, being careful not to over-tighten them (this avoids cracking the filter).

2. Connect a standard garden hose to a faucet with regular cold tap water (not softened water or hot water).

CAUTION

The water from your hot water tank should not be used to fill the spa / hot tub.

Figure 8 - Filtration Canister

3. Put the pre-filter* on the other end of the hose, point the pre-filter into a suitable

drain, turn on the water, and allow any sediment to be flushed down the drain. Once the water stream runs clear, turn off the hose.

4. Put the pre-filter (if equipped) into the filtration canister and turn on the hose.

5. Fill slowly. If too much water pressure is used, foaming water can force air into

the pipes and cause startup problems.

* Pre-filters are available at most dealers

Important: To ensure that the pump is properly primed, fill the spa / hot tub through the filter area only.

6. Fill the spa / hot tub until the water level is about 6” below the top lip of the spa /

hot tub. Do not over fill.

Note: Every person entering a spa / hot tub displaces a given volume of water, so adjust water level to the number of people regularly using the spa / hot tub.

Turn off the hose and check again for any small leaks.

Page 18

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

OPERATIONAL CHECKS

CAUTION

Do not turn on any pump until your spa is properly filled with water. Running any pump without water in your spa can cause IMMEDIATE damage, which is not covered by the guarantee!

By now you have rechecked your spa / hot tub mechanical connections and filled it with water to about 1” above all jets by adding cold tap water through the pre-filter (if equipped). Turn on power to the spa / hot tub at the main breaker panel and test the operation of the electrical system. If you encounter a problem, please reference the troubleshooting guide.

Turn on the breaker and test the operation of the Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) breaker by pushing the small button. This should automatically trip the spa / hot tub circuit breaker. Only if pushing this button successfully trips this circuit breaker should you reset this breaker and proceed to the initial start up procedure.

DANGER

If this breaker does not trip, immediately call your electrician. Do not use your spa / hot tub!

INITIAL START UP PROCEDURE

1) Ensure the circuit breaker to the spa / hot tub is off.

2) Rotate all the jets in the spa /hot tub to the fully open position.

3) Ensure that all of the gate valves are open. The gate valve is open when the handle

is fully extended up and clipped in place. Models with 1 pump will include 2 valves and models with 2 pumps will include 4 valves. Note: a circulation pump (when installed) will include an additional 2 valves.

4) To prevent the possibility of leakage in the equipment bay, ensure the pump unions

are tight.

5) Close and cap the hose bib. This is used for draining the spa / hot tub.

6) Fill the spa / hot tub until the water level is about 6” below the top lip of the spa / hot

tub. Do not overfill.

Page 19

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

7) Turn on the circuit breaker. Set the desired temperature by using the up or down

keys.

8) Push the jets 1 keypad to turn on the low speed pump. Check to ensure water is

coming from some of the jets. If the water is not ﬂowing out, open the pump union slightly to release trapped air. Close the union when the pump pushes water out of the jets. Push the jets 1 keypad and the pump will turn on high speed. Observe closely to ensure adequate water ﬂow. Push the jets 2 key pad (if equipped) and pump 2 will turn on high speed. Observe to ensure adequate water ﬂow. If there is no water ﬂow through the jets, the pumps need to be primed.

9) Re-attach the equipment access panel.

10) Ensure proper water chemistry only after completing the above steps.

11) To conserve energy and ensure your spa / hot tub is ready for use, place the color

coordinated cover securely on the spa.

CAUTION

If water does not flow from the jets after 2 minutes, turn power off at the main panel and bleed air from the system. Turn power on again. Sometimes momentarily turning a pump off/on will prime it. Only do this four times.

NOTE:

In order to prevent damage to your pillows caused by the gassing effect of the chemicals, we do recommend to remove them when the spa is not in use. By removing them you will extend considerably the life length of your pillows. We do design ours pillows to be removed easily in order to make sure they will not remain in the spa when it’s not in use.

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

WATER QUALITY

Note: Perform water quality testing weekly and whenever your water is changed (or when your spa / hot tub is first filled). Once your spa / hot tub reaches 95ºF, properly adjust the chemistry of your spa / hot tub water by testing it with good quality test kits and adjusting levels as needed.

Note: Balancing and sanitization products are not included.

Figure 9 – Typical Test Strip Usage

TOTAL ALKALINITY

Important: Total Alkalinity (TA) is the first parameter you should balance when making routine adjustments to your water.

Once your water temperature reaches 95ºF, test the total alkalinity of your spa / hot tub water with a good quality test kit. Maintain a total alkalinity level of 80 to 120 ppm.

Total alkalinity is the measure of alkaline buffers in your water. These buffers protect the water against sudden changes in pH. Total alkalinity is considered the key to water balance.

When the total alkalinity is too low, add sodium bicarbonate. If the total alkalinity is too high, you can lower it by using muriatic acid or sodium bisulfate.

ACID ALKALINE BALANCE (pH)

Test the pH of your spa water with a good quality test kit. Maintain a pH level of 7.2 to

7.8.

A balanced pH promotes bathing comfort and prevents corrosion, staining, scaling, or cloudy water.

If the measured pH is too low, add soda ash to the spa water. If the pH is too high, add sodium bisulfate to the spa water. Follow the directions on the manufacturer’s label and make small changes. Circulate the water for 20 minutes before retesting.

Page 21

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

HARDNESS LEVEL

Once your pH level is proper, test the hardness level of your water with a good quality test kit. Maintain a hardness of 200 to 400 ppm (mg/L).

A balanced hardness level helps prevent corrosion and scaling.

If the measured hardness level is too low, add calcium chloride to the water. If the hardness level is too high, partially drain and refill your spa / hot tub with cold tap water. Follow the directions on the chemical manufacturer’s label and make small changes.

Note: If the hardness level is higher than 400 ppm (mg/L) when initially filling your spa / hot tub, the hardness level of your tap water may be too high. If so, partially drain your spa / hot tub. Use a good quality pre-filter to the supply line when refilling it.

SANITIZATION, CHLORINE / BROMINE

Once your hardness level is proper, it is imperative that you do not use the spa / hot tub until there is a minimum reading of chlorine or bromine in the water. Maintain a chlorine or bromine level of 3 to 5 ppm (Mg/L)

Chlorine and bromine are available from your dealer in tablet and granular form.

Tablets or granular products should never be added directly to the spa / hot tub. Damage and discoloration to the surface may occur. Tablets should always be placed in a tablet dispenser (not included) and the tablet dispenser then placed into the spa / hot tub water.

Granular products should be applied to the spa / hot tub water in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Never apply granular chlorine or bromine products directly to the spa water.

WATER MANAGEMENT

All La-Z-Boy® Signature Spas are equipped with

an Ozone Purifier that is highly effective in

removing unwanted contaminants from the water

by means of an electronic oxidation process.

If your water quality seems improper, increasing

the time your spa filters the water may clear up

your problem.

Below are some answers to common water chemistry questions.

pH It is common to have pH fluctuations after adding chemicals to

your spa / hot tub or after a party. Let your jets run and give your water time to stabilize. 9 times out of 10, your pH will come back into the 7.2 - 7.8 range on its own.

Mildew on cover Mildew usually grows in the folds and seams of your cover and

then drips into your spa / hot tub water causing cloudiness and/or odor. Clean with a non-foaming spa / hot tub cover cleaner and then rinse the inside of your cover with clean warm water.

Foamy water Foam typically results from soap residue on your skin and hair, or

laundry detergent residue on clothing. Take a soapless shower and rinse all clothing in warm water prior to bathing.

Your “source water” most likely has dissolved heavy metals. When this is the case, use a respected brand of demineralizer found at any local pool/ spa store. Using a pre-filter can remove these contaminants before they get into your spa.

Although a normal condition immediately after filling that dissipates after time, with stabilized water this is a visual indication that the total alkalinity or pH or both are at improper levels. Test your water weekly and maintain proper water chemistry.

Algae can be resolved by adding a respected brand of algaecide.

If your water develops an odor and/or cloudiness, clean your cover and filters and try increasing the amount of time your spa filters per day by turning your filtration cycle time or duration up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Does the Circulation Pump run all the Time?

Your spa / hot tub is programmed for constant filtration to keep your water as clean and clear as possible. It is normal for your circulation pump to run this way when programmed to do so.

Who do I call for Guarantee Information or Service?

Call your local dealer. Please note, you must register your spa / hot tub within 30 days of purchasing your spa / hot tub.

Who are the Service Companies in my area?

Call your local dealer. If you encounter a matter that can’t be easily resolved over the phone, a local technician can be dispatched to your home. The service technician may assess reasonable travel charges during on-site repairs.

What Happens when my Guarantee Expires?

Your local dealer will continue to provide service for your spa / hot tub after your guarantee has expired.

How do I adjust my Hydrotherapy jets?

Simply turn each of the hydrotherapy jets counterclockwise to open and clockwise to close. Be careful not to overturn these jets, as damage can occur.

Note: We recommend leaving all hydrotherapy jets fully open to allow the pumps complete control over jet pressure.

CAUTION

Do not turn off too many jets at the same time. This will create backflow and possible damage to your spa / hot tub!

Page 35

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

How often should I drain my spa / hot tub?

You should drain and refill your spa / hot tub every 1-3 months depending on usage. Every other time you drain and refill, you should also replace the filters and wipe down the spa.

What is the insulation made of?

Our Thermal Barrier Insulation System includes 4 insulating zones and the Color Coordinated Cover. The plumbing, shell and floor are sealed in a reflective insulated thermal blanket. As an added layer, the same insulated thermal blanket is installed on the backside of the cabinet around the entire perimeter of the spa / hot tub.

How do I use the optional AquaCoustics sound system?

Gain access to the MP3 docking station by pulling the cover out and lift the lid. Most MP3 players that are compatible with a TRS connector can be used with the AquaCoustics Surround Sound System. Your MP3 player should function as normal and the sound should now be heard through the speakers.

Page 36

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

How do I bleed air from my system?

When draining and refilling your spa / hot tub, the pump may become air locked. Airlocked pumps stop water from flowing in your spa / hot tub and is easily resolved by bleeding off the trapped air. To do this:

 Turn off the GFCI breaker  Open the access panel below the topside control panel  Loosen the union on the circulation pump until you hear the trapped air escape as

shown below.

 Once water drips out in a continuous stream, hand tighten the union until the water

stops leaking

 Turn on all pumps to make sure that there are no leaks  Put the access panels back on  Turn on the GFCI breaker

How should I clean my spa?

Use non-sudsing cleaners and non-oily polishes. A high quality all purpose cleaner quickly removes scum lines and helps restore your shell’s original beauty. Rinse all filters, covers, pillows, and surfaces thoroughly with warm tap water. A high quality filter cleaner is a safe, effective way to clean and re-use your filters and a plumbing cleaner cleans the inside of all plumbing in your spa / hot tub. You can contact your local La-Z-Boy Spa dealer to order these easy-to-use cleaning products.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

Important: The guarantee on your spa / hot tub and equipment depends on proper water balance. In addition, the following maintenance procedures must be followed periodically.

DURACARE AND OPTIONAL EVERLAST CABINETS

The spa / hot tub consists of a rigid polymer that combines the durability of plastic with the beauty of a wood-looking cabinet. To clean the cabinet, a mild soap and water solution easily removes residue.

These Everlast cabinets utilize a magnetic latching system to fasten and hold the exterior panels in place. In order to remove a panel for access you need to start at the lower right hand corner of the panel and disengage the first magnetic latch by pulling the panel forward enough to allow your hand to get behind the panel. Once you have done that you can run your hand behind the panel to disengage the other magnetic latches and be able to remove the panel completely. To reinstall the panel, line the panel up in the opening and lift it in place and the magnetic latches will engage with the panel so you can shift it place and complete the reinstallation.

COLOR COORDINATED COVER

1. The heat shield cover on your spa / hot tub is made from a weatherproof marine- grade vinyl. Your cover will last much longer if you heed the following suggestions:

2. Don’t drag your cover on the ground; wearing of the vinyl could easily develop into a tear.

3. The insulating foam in your cover is not designed to hold the weight of a person or an animal.

Important – Cracked foam in a cover is not covered under the Guarantee. Do not stand on it.

4. Occasionally clean the inside of your cover with a spa / hot tub cover cleaner and rinse with warm water. (Using soap or vinyl cleaners on the inside of your cover causes foamy water.) Call your local dealer to order spa / hot tub cover cleaner.

5. A spa / hot tub cover cleaner applied to the outside of your cover and stitching once yearly will keep it looking better longer. Call your local dealer to order vinyl cover cleaner.

6. Do not lift your cover by the safety straps, they are made to secure the cover to the cabinet and may tear.

Page 41

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

DRAINING AND REFILLING YOUR SPA

Figure 13 - Drain Operation

1. Turn Power Off - turn the power off at the spa consoles and deactivate disconnect switches at the GFCI plug or load center.

2. Locate Spa Drain Valve - The spa drain valve is located on the side of the cabinet.

3. Remove Drain Valve Safety Cap - Pull the drain valve completely out. Remove the safety drain cap and store for use when refilling your spa. Attach a standard garden hose to the drain valve.

4. Attach Hose & Drain - With the garden hose attached push the drain valve in so that the hose is flush with the drain. To stop draining the tub simply reverse the process by pulling the drain completely out, installing the drain valve cap and pushing the drain in fully. Make sure you do not force the drain in so that it is properly aligned.

FILTERS

The dual micro filters in your spa / hot tub should be removed and cleaned every week with a high quality filter cleanser and typically replaced every 4-6 months (depending upon use). You can clean your filters with the water pressure from the end of a garden hose then rinsed with warm water. This ensures that the water is being filtered properly.

DO NOT USE BLEACH. We recommend having replacement filters on hand that can be swapped between cleanings. Doing so enables you to quickly exchange the dirty filters with the clean ones and immediately start your spa / hot tub again. Call your local dealer to order replacement filters and filter cleaner.

Page 42

For HELP, call La-Z-Boy® Spas at 1.800.465.2933.

ALL ACTIVE COMFORT MASSAGE JETS

Remove and clean the jets as needed using a high quality plumbing cleanser, water, and a cloth or soft-bristled brush.

LED MOOD AND SAFETY LIGHTS

Drain the spa / hot tub and clean the LED Safety and Mood Light lens as needed using an optical cloth and an eyewear cleaning product specifically designed not to scratch optical surfaces. If the back side of this lens is also dirty remove the rear panel, twist the light assembly counterclockwise to remove the light from its holder, and clean in this same manner.

SURFACE

The acrylic surface of your spa / hot tub should be cleaned with a high quality all purpose cleaner and thoroughly rinsed with warm (not cold) water before refilling.

WARNING

Cleaning your spa shell with abrasive cleaners could discolor, dull, or dissolve the acrylic surface and will void your shell warranty. NEVER use paint solvents, acids, acetone, benzene, lacquer thinner, tolulene, xylene, or similar chemicals to clean your spa shell.

WATER

Depending on usage, the water in your spa / hot tub should be changed every 1-3 months. Upon each change of water it is a good practice to wipe down your spa.

SHUTDOWN / WINTERIZING

In the event that you do not wish to use your hot tub year-round, it is very important that you properly winterize to protect against damage from freezing. Your La-Z-Boy® Spas retailer can perform this service for a nominal fee. If you choose to winterize your hot tub yourself, please follow the directions outlined below:

• Drain the hot tub entirely see section - DRAINING AND REFILLING YOUR SPA

• Remove and clean the cartridge filter element see section - FILTERS

• Using a wet/dry utility vacuum, remove remaining water from the jet openings, filter

cartridge housing, and footwell.

• Either pour or use a turkey-baster where necessary to add potable biodegradable RV

antifreeze to areas such as pump wet end, jet channels, filter housing, blower channels. DO NOT USE AUTOMOTIVE ANTIFREEZE.

• Important: mixing potable biodegradable RV antifreeze with water significantly

reduces its ability to protect against freezing. Therefore, it is very important ALL water is removed from the hot tub plumbing before adding.

• Turn pump on for only a few seconds to circulate the antifreeze.

• Unthread and disconnect all unions in the support equipment area. Remove lowest

winter drain plug on pump face plate. Repeat for all pumps, where applicable.

• Cover exposed plumbing connections with plastic bags and duct tape.

• Where practical, disconnect hot tub support equipment and store in a dry heated

area.

• Install the safety hardcover, and cover the entire hot tub with a tarp to prevent

premature weathering of the cabinet and the safety hard cover.
