• 75-150 ppm - Use the Vanishing Act pillow provided in your start up kit (refer to
owner’s manual for instructions).
• 150-300 ppm - Use the Vanishing Act XL™ or an On The Go portable water softener
(available at your local dealer).
• Over 300 ppm - Use an On The Go portable water softener (used during fill process).
After 24 hours, test spa water with a FreshWater 5-Way Test Strip. If calcium hardness
level still reads above 75 ppm, repeat the process until you get close to 50 ppm. Discard
Vanishing Act in your normal trash after recommended amount of time and before
continuing to next step.
Step 7 - Set Salt System Output Level and Monitor
NOTE: The following is typically performed on Day 2 of start-up
Access the water care menu on your control panel. Set salt system output to the
recommended level indicated in Table 3.
To change the Output Level, one of the three screens below on your spa's control panel will
be displayed.
Output level 0=system off, 10=maximum output
Using a FreshWater 5-Way Test Strip, check the water to ensure a residual chlorine level
of a minimum of 3 ppm has been maintained over the past 24 hours. If the chlorine level
has dropped below 3 ppm, repeat the chlorination process to achieve 5 ppm and press the
Boost button. Check the chlorine level again in 24 hours, and continue the chlorination and
Boost process each day until the salt system can independently maintain the target 3 ppm
chlorine residual. Over the next few days, continue to test your water using a FreshWater
5-Way Test Strip and adjust the salt system output level as needed.
IMPORTANT: The salt system cleans the water
before it produces a chlorine residual that is visible
on a test strip. If there is not a measurable amount
of chlorine in the spa water after 24 hours, this is
an indication that the salt system is still cleaning
the water. If there are contaminants in the water,
or you use the spa often initially, it may take the
salt system a few days to clean the spa water and
keep up with your chlorine demand. Use Boost to
generate additional chlorine during this process.
This is perfectly normal and does not mean that
your Freshwater Salt System is not working.
