QCA Spa Light

All equipment Modules have a receptacle, located on the

Equipment Module. This receptacle is provided for the

connection of the spa light.

Your QCA Spa has a standard 12v light. The spa light

may be turned ON or OFF by pressing the LIGHT button,

located on the spa side control. The light will

automatically turn off after 4 hours.

Spa Light Lens Installation

Colored lenses are included with the spa light. To install

or remove lenses simply push ON or pull OFF of the spa

light, as shown below.

Spa Light Bulb Replacement

To replace the spa light bulb; turn ALL power to the

Equipment Module OFF. Locate the rear of the spa light

and remove the bulb socket by rotating socket counter

clockwise 1/8 turn and pulling on the socket (not the

wires), as shown below. Pull the bulb from the socket and

replace by reversing the above steps.

CAUTION: The replacement bulb must be the same

rating as the factory installed bulb.

Spa Care and Maintenance

It is recommended to completely drain the spa at least four

times a year. Otherwise, the water becomes chemically

"saturated" and no longer responds to regular chemical

upkeep. The spa should also be drained before long

periods of disuse, or for equipment repair.

Draining of Water

Because of the small water volumes involved with spas,

sometimes it is much simpler and less expensive to drain

the water than to adjust the water chemistry with chemical

additives. To drain the spa, shut off the main breaker to

your spa equipment pack. A drain fitting (if equipped) is

provided on cabinet panel. Remove plug from drain.

Attach garden hose to drain adapter and lay out garden

hose to the location where water is to be drained. Screw

drain adapter into drain fitting spa will automatically drain

by gravity.

Optional Draining of the Water

• Simply siphon water from spa with garden hose

• A sump pump may be used to pump water from

spa.

• Use a wet/dry vac to remove the remaining amount

of water.

Refilling your Spa

1. Be sure the main breaker to your spa equipment pack

is off.

2. Fill spa thru the filter housing with water to proper

level..

3. Turn power back on, spa will automatically start to run

and heat water to set temperature.

Your Water Care Program

Before adding chemicals to your spa, do a full water

analysis with a test kit or ask your QCA Spa dealer to

conduct the water test for you. (The following is an

illustration of the steps taken when Bromine is the water

care program. You may choose to use an alternate water

care program with different chemicals. Please consult

your QCA Spa dealer for proper water care instructions.)

Step 1: Always have the circulation system running

before adding any chemicals. As you fill your spa

to the level recommended by the manufacturer, add

cleaning agent to prevent mineral staining and to

protect equipment against scale and corrosion.

Circulate for one hour.

Step 2: "Balance" the water so that it is neither alkaline

(scale forming) nor acidic (corrosive). Balanced

spa water should be 7.2- 7.8 on the pH scale, with

total 7.3 alkalinity (the measure of the ability of

water to resist a change in pH) in the range of 80-

120 parts per million (PPM).

A. If pH is lower than 7.2, add pH UP

B. If pH is higher than 7.8, add pH DOWN

C. If total alkalinity is below 80, add

ALKALINITY UP.

Step 3: Shock treat the water with non chlorine shock to

destroy any organic contaminants that may have

accumulated in the spa during filling.

Step 4: Prepare your disinfectant dispenser or feeder for

use according to directions. A bromine residual of

2.0 - 4.0 PPM, as determined by your test kit, should

be maintained at all times. Directions for using the

bromine are indicated on the float ring.

We suggest you follow a regular maintenance program to

keep your spa water fresh and crystal clear.
