Spa Care and Maintenance

Your CALDERA spa is manufactured from the highest quality, most

durable materials available. Even so, the spa care and maintenance

program you develop will ultimately determine how long your spa, and its

individual components, will last. Regular maintenance and following the

advice in this section will help you to protect your investment.

DRAIN & REFILL INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: It is NOT recommended to refill your spa when the ambient

temperature goes below 10° C (50° F).

1. Disconnect the spa from the power supply by tripping the RCD

breaker located in the subpanel.

2. Locate the drain valve for the spa (lower front of the spa) and

remove the drain cap. Attach the inlet of a garden hose to the drain

valve (to avoid flooding of the foundation surrounding the spa) and

route the outlet of the hose to an appropriate draining area. Spa

water with a high sanitizer level may harm plants and grass.

3. Open the drain valve by turning the knob. The spa will drain by

gravitational flow.

IMPORTANT: All CALDERA spa models will drain to the bottom of

the suction fitting, use vacuum side of shop vac to remove remaining

water. Any water remaining within the plumbing or equipment after

draining will only need to be removed if the spa is being winterized.

4. When empty, inspect the spa shell and clean as required. (Follow the

Care of the Exterior instructions.)

5. Close the drain valve by reinstall the drain cap.

6. Install new filter or clean existing with a filter cleaner.

7. Refill the spa through the filter compartment using the CLEAN

SCREEN pre-filter

IMPORTANT: Refill water temperature must be between 10º -21º C

(50° - 70° F) to avoid high-limit tripping.

8. Follow the Quick Start-Up instructions on page 14.

COLD WATER REFILL

Should it be necessary to drain and refill your spa in temperatures

below 10° C (50° F), the spa may go into a High Limit Protection mode

(causing your spa to stop functioning) if the tap water is below

10° C (50° F). Blending warm water with the cold tap water so it

exceeds 10° C (50° F) during the refilling process will prevent the spa

from going into the High Limit Protection mode if that is an option for you.

PREVENTION OF FREEZING

Your spa has been designed and engineered for year-round use in any

climate. In some areas, extremely cold temperatures

(below -12° C or 10° F) combined with strong wind, may cause partial

freezing of the jet pump, even though the water inside the spa remains

at the selected temperature. The energy efficiency of the spa may

also decrease during these cold periods, as the heater will cycle more

frequently. As an additional precaution against partial freezing of some of

the components, the equipment compartment can be insulated with an

insulating kit (available from your local dealer). This insulating kit will also

help to maximize the spa’s energy efficiency.

NOTE: When warmer weather returns (approx. 16°-21°C / 60-70°F), the

insulating kit must be removed to prevent overheating of the jet pump.

WINTERIZING YOUR SPA

If you leave the spa unused for a long period of time in severely cold

weather, you should drain the spa and winterize it to avoid accidental

freezing due to a power or equipment failure.

DANGER: Use only Propylene Glycol as your anti-freeze (available

at most RV or marine supply stores). This is non-toxic. Never use an

automobile anti-freeze (Ethylene Glycol) since it is toxic!

WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions correctly can lead to

freeze damage not covered by warranty. It is strongly recommended that

you contact your local CALDERA dealer to perform this service

1. Drain your spa following the Drain & Refill Instructions. Open

waterfall valve.

2. Remove the filter cartridge, clean and store in a dry place.

IMPORTANT: These additional instructions must be utilized when

draining and winterizing your spa in climates where the temperature

falls below 0°C (32°F). A 20 liters combination (vacuum/blower)

wet/dry shop vac must be used to effectively remove water that is

trapped inside the plumbing lines.

3. Attach the vacuum hose to the vacuum side of the shop vac.

Vacuum all openings and orifices as follows:

a. Jet openings: start with the jets at the top and move downward

(if suction is coming from another jet, block off the other jet

using a large rag this will help pull out the water that is trapped

deeper inside the main line).

b. Filter suction fittings and filter compartment.

c. Main drain outlet (it may be necessary to cover the drain grate

tightly with a rag when vacuuming the main drain to ensure

water is drawn completely from the internal plumbing system).

4. Thoroughly dry the spa shell with a clean towel.

5. Replace the main drain cap.

CAUTION: Use only Propylene Glycol as your anti-freeze. This is

non-toxic. Never use an automobile anti-freeze (Ethylene Glycol)

since it is toxic!

6. Using a long-extension funnel, pour anti-freeze into all standpipes,

filter suction fittings, jet orifices and water feature orifices. Add

enough anti-freeze to ensure adequate protection – in many cases,

you will see the liquid in the orifice, or coming out of another

location.

7. Close the spa cover and fasten the cover tie downs. Cover the spa

cover with two pieces of plywood to evenly distribute the weight of

snow and ice. Secure a plastic sheet, or tarp, over the spa cover

and plywood.

8. Replace the equipment access door, if removed.
