Attention New Hot Tub Owner!

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sundance

®

hot tub! The following is

a list of automated functions performed by your hot tub. These functions are listed

below in an attempt to suppress any operational concerns you may have during

the rst 24 hours of ownership! Also listed below are important maintenance

recommendations you should observe on a regular basis to protect your new

investment.

Automated Spa Operations

Your new hot tub is equipped with an automated “blow-out” cycle that clears all

plumbing lines daily to promote maximum water sanitation. Each day at 12:00

PM (noon), pump 2, pump 3 (Maxxus™/Aspen® Models) and the blower will

automatically turn on for a period of one minute, then go off. Then pump 1 will turn

on and run for one minute to complete the blow-out cycle. Be aware, the factory

programmed blow-out cycle cannot be canceled or altered!

Maintain Healthy Spa Water

Always maintain your hot tub’s water chemistry within the following parameters:

With CLEARRAY® Without CLEARRAY®

pH 7.4-7.6 7.4-7.6

Free chlorine no less than 1.0 ppm 3.0-4.0 ppm

Free Bromine no less than 2.0 ppm 2.0-4.0 ppm

Total Alkalinity 100-150 ppm 100-150 ppm

Calcium Hardness 150-250 ppm 150-250 ppm

IMPORTANT: CLEARRAY® Water Purication System is factory installed. If

the CLEARRAY® system is altered or is not operating efciently follow the

“without CLEARRAY®” water chemistry parameters. Such parameters are de-

ned by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals. CLEARRAY® requires

an annual lamp replacement to properly sanitize your water.

!

TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!

Always

maintain your spa lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water. Refer to

pages 60-62 for additional information.

Required Filter Maintenance

Your new hot tub is equipped with an advanced MICROCLEAN® Ultra water

ltration system that provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum

water quality at all times, you should replace the lter cartridge every six months,

or earlier as necessary. The lter cartridge is designed to be thrown away!

Attempts to reuse the lter cartridge may result in the re-release of unwanted

particles back into the hot tub. See pages 60-62 for detailed lter cartridge

replacement instructions.

Required Water Replacement

!

TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!

You should

replace the hot tub’s water every 3 to 6 months. The frequency depends on a

number of variables including frequency of use, number of users, and attention

paid to water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a change when you

cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get

the normal feel or sparkle to

the water, even though the key water balance measurements are all within the

proper parameters. See pages 67-69 for additional information.

1.0 Important Hot Tub Owner Information

Your Sundance

®

hot tub is constructed to the highest standards and

is capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However,

because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the hot tub for

efcient operation, an uncovered hot tub surface and wall ttings directly

exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period are

subject to permanent damage or discoloration. Damage caused by

exposing the hot tub to this abuse is not covered under warranty. We

recommend that you always keep the hot tub full of water when it is

exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the Sundance insulating

cover in place at all times when the hot tub is not in use. Read and

carefully follow the requirements for your hot tub’s support base found in

the Section 4.0 titled, “Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub” (page 8) or

as prescribed by your authorized Sundance Spas dealer.

3.0 Important Safety Instructions for all Spa Owners

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!

This spa was manufactured to meet the standards and specications

outlined in the “Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act” (VGB

Safety Act). When installing and using this spa, basic safety precautions

should always be followed, including:

1.

!

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

• Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access

by children.

• To avoid accidents, ensure that children do not use this spa unless

supervised at all times. Adult supervision is a critical safety factor in

preventing children from drowning.

• Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the spa cover when not

in use. This will help discourage unsupervised children from entering

the spa. Keep the spa cover secure in high-wind conditions.

• There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual

locks will prevent access to the spa.

2.

!

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

• Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from

suction ttings, rotating jets or other moving components to avoid

entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.

• Never use the spa unless all suction guards, lter, lter lid, or skimmer

assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.

• Never operate or use the spa if the lter, lter lid, or skimmer

assembly are broken or any part of the skimmer assembly is missing.

Please contact your dealer or nearest service center for service.

• The suction ttings and suction covers in this spa are sized to match the

specic water ow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace

the suction ttings, suction covers or pump(s), be sure that the ow

rates are compatible and are in compliance with the VGB Safety Act.

• Never replace a suction tting or suction cover with one rated less

than the ow rate marked on the original suction tting. Using

improper suction ttings or suction covers can create a body or hair

suction entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe injury.

3.

!

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY FROM ELECTRIC

SHOCK OR DEATH FROM ELECTROCUTION!

• Install the spa at least 5 feet (1.5m), from all metal surfaces. As an

3.1 Entrapment Risk

The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has reported that

users of pools and spas have become entrapped (stuck) to drain and/or

suction ttings causing death, drowning, or serious injury (see diagram

below). This spa was manufactured to meet the standards and specica-

tions outlined in the “Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act”

(VGB Safety Act). Entrapment risk can be minimized if proper precau-

tions are taken.

DANGER: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH!

Never operate the spa if a suction tting, suction cover, lter,

lter lid or skimmer assembly are broken, damaged or miss-

ing.

!

NOTE: SUCTION COVERS MUST BE REPLACED EVERY 5 YEARS.

1.

!

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

Hair entrapment: May occur if hair is entangled, knotted or snagged

in a drain suction or skimmer assembly. This has been reported in

persons who when submerge themselves underwater, allowing hair

to come close and/or within the reach of the suction ttings, suction

covers or skimmer assembly.

• Keep hair away from suction ttings, suction covers, lter, lter lid or

skimmer assembly.

• Never allow children to play or get near the suction ttings, suction

covers, lter, lter lid or skimmer assembly.

3.2 Hyperthermia

Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia (over-

heating). The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of fatal

hyperthermia in spas. A description of the causes, symptoms, and effects

of hyperthermia are as follows:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches

a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F

(37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy

(fatigue), and an increase in the internal temperature of the body (feeling

of being too hot). The effects of hyperthermia include:

• Unawareness of impending hazard;

• Failure to perceive heat;

• Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;

• Physical inability to exit spa;

• Fetal damage in pregnant women; and

• Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.

A Warning Sign is provided in your warranty packet. Please install at

a location near your spa, where it is visible to users of the spa. For

additional or replacement Warning Signs please contact your local

Sundance spas dealer and reference item number #6530-082.

3.3 Important Additional CSA Safety Instructions (Canada Only)

When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should

always be followed, including the following:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, Gr, Ground,

Grounding or the symbol* is located inside the supply termi-

nal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this

terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the

electric supply service panel with a continuous copper wire equiva-

lent in size to the circuit conductors that supply this equipment (*IEC

Publication 417, Symbol 5019).

3. At least two lugs marked “Bonding Lugs” are provided on the exter-

nal surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/compartment.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local common bond-

ing grid in the area of the spa to these terminals with an insulated or

bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (10 mm²).

4. All eld installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or

other similar hardware within 10 feet (3m) of the spa shall be bonded

to the equipment grounding buss with copper conductors not smaller

than No. 6 AWG (10 mm²).

5. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

4.0 Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub

IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water

and users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the

spa rests be smooth, at, level and capable of uniformly support-

ing this weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the

spa is in place. If the spa is placed on a surface which does not

meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or the spa shell

may result. Damage caused by improper support is not covered

under warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa owner to assure

the integrity of the support over time. We recommend a poured,

reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 4 inches (10

cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is constructed so

that it meets the requirements outlined above.

Page 9

880 SERIES

WARNING: For spas that are to rest on balconies,

roofs or other platforms not specically tied into main

structural support, consult a professional Structural En-

gineer with experience in this type of application.

!

The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away

from it. Placing the spa in a depression without provisions for proper

drainage could allow rain, overow and other casual water to ood the

equipment and create a wet condition in which it would sit in. For spas

which will be recessed into a oor or deck, install so as to permit access

to the equipment, either from above or below, for servicing. Make certain

that there are no obstructions which would prevent removal of all side

cabinet panels and access to components, especially on the side with

the equipment bay doors.

CAUTION: If the spa is indoors or located in an enclosed area,

proper ventilation should be discussed with an Engineer or authority

competent enough to understand the necessary provisions needed

to vent moist or heated air and air associated with chemical odors

outdoors. When the spa is in use considerable amounts of

moisture will escape potentially causing mold and mildew. This

can cause health risk. Over time, this can damage certain surfaces,

surroundings, and equipment.

4.1 Outdoor Location

In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your hot tub, we suggest that

you take into consideration the following:

• The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in regions

subject to cold weather).

• The pathway to and from your hot tub (this should be free of debris

so that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the hot tub).

• The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and

birds could create extra work in keeping the hot tub clean).

• A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can result

in lowered operation and maintenance costs).

• The overall enhancement of your environment. It is preferable not

to place the hot tub under an unguttered roof overhang since run-off

water will shorten the life expectancy of the hot tub cover.

• For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not

specically tied into main structural support, consult a professional

Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

• In the unlikely event that you should ever need to access or gain

entry to any portion of the spa for servicing, it is highly recommended

that you plan your outdoor installation to provide full access to the

entire spa. Please take this into consideration when placing the spa

in a deck or enclosed by a surrounding.

• Consider locating your spa away from any reective surface or glass

to prevent any damage to the synthetic skirt.

• Do not shim the spa. To ensure proper support the spa must sit at

on the intended foundation.

4.2 Indoor Location

For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before

installing a spa indoors:

WARNING: In addition to maintenance of lters and water

chemistry, proper ventilation is recommended to reduce the

risk of contracting a waterborne

illness (e.g. an infection, bac-

teria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments

that could be pres-

ent in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or building

contractor to determine your specic needs if installing your

hot tub indoors.

!

• PROPER FOUNDATION: Consult a Structural Engineer when

considering a foundation that will adequately support the spa

the entire time it is in place. Proper support is critical especially

if the spa is to rest on a second story or higher. For spas that are

to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specically tied

into the main structural support, you should consult a professional

Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

• PROPER DRAINAGE: It is extremely important to have in place

measures to sufciently handle excessive water spillage. Be

sure the ooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage

and can handle draining of the entire contents of the spa. Be sure

to make provisions for ceilings or any other structures that may be

below the spas installation. Areas around your spa can become wet

or moist so all ooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent

structures should be able to withstand or resist water and moisture.

• PROPER VENTILATION: Proper ventilation should be discussed

with an Engineer or authority competent enough to understand

the necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air

and air associated with chemical odors outdoors. When the spa

is in use considerable amounts of moisture will escape potentially

causing mold and mildew, over time this can damage certain

surfaces and or surroundings.

880 SERIES

• SUFFICIENT ACCESS: In the unlikely event that you should ever

need to access or gain entry to any portion of the spa for servicing,

it is highly recommended that you plan your indoor installation to

provide full access to the entire spa.

• WARRANTY: Damage caused by not following these guidelines

or any improper installation not in accordance with local codes or

authorities is not covered under the spas warranty. Please consult

your local state or city building ordinances.

• DO NOT SHIM THE SPA. To ensure proper support the spa must sit

at on the intended foundation.

5.0 General Electrical Safety Instructions

Your new Sundance

®

hot tub is equipped with the “state-of-

the-art” equipment system. It contains the most advanced

safety and self-protective equipment in the industry.

Nonetheless, this hot tub must be installed properly to

ensure dependable usage. Please contact your local

Sundance Spas dealer or local building department should you have any

questions regarding your installation.

Proper grounding is extremely important. Sundance hot tubs are

equipped with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is

provided on the surface of the control box, located inside the equipment

door (Figure C, page 14) to permit connection of a bonding wire

between this point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or

conduit within 5 feet (1.5m) of the hot tub, or copper clad grounding rod

buried within 5 feet (1.5m) of the hot tub. Bonding wire must be at least

No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper wire. This is a most important safety

assurance feature.

Before installing your hot tub, check with your local government/electri-

cal authority to ensure installation conforms to local country/area state

codes.
