Attention New Spa Owner!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sundance® 780 series spa! The
following is a list of automated functions and maintenance recommendations
for your new spa. Automated functions have been listed below in an attempt to
suppress any operational concerns you may have during startup and the rst
24-hours of ownership! Maintenance recommendations are listed in an attempt
to stress their importance in protecting your new spa.
Automated Operations
Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the rst ltration/
heating cycle turns on pump 1 (see sec. 9.0, page 23). In Certa/Chelsee/
Hamilton models, an automatic ve minute “blow-out” function also activates
pump 2 for a period of ve minutes to ush all lines. Then, after ve minutes,
pump 2 turns off and pump 1 continues to operate for the duration of the cycle.
Note: this function only occurs during the rst ltration/heating cycle each day.
Maintain Healthy Spa Water
Always maintain your hot tub’s water chemistry within the following
parameters as dened by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:
pH 7.4 - 7.6
Free Chlorine 3.0 - 4.0 ppm
Free Bromine 2.0 - 4.0 ppm
Total Alkalinity 100 - 120 ppm
Calcium Hardness 150 - 250 ppm
Always maintain your spa lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water.
Refer to page 29-30 for additional information.
Required Filter Maintenance
Your new hot tub is equipped with an advanced 2-stage MicroClean™water
ltration system that provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum
water quality at all times, you should clean and reuse the larger pleated lter
cartridge every month and replace (throw away) the smaller MicroClean lter
cartridge every 3 months, or earlier as necessary. The smaller MicroClean lter
cartridge is designed to be thrown away! Attempts to reuse this lter cartridge
may result in the re-release of unwanted particles back into the spa. See page
29-30 for detailed lter cartridge replacement instructions.
Required Water Maintenance
You should replace the spa’s water every 3 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 page 36 for additional information.

1.0 Important Spa Owner Information
Your new Sundance® 780 Series Spa 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
spa for efficient operation, an uncovered acrylic spa surface and wall fit-
tings directly exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended
period is subject to permanent damage or discoloration. Damage
caused by exposing the spa to this abuse is not covered under war-
ranty. We recommend that you always keep the spa full of water when
it is exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the insulating cover in
place at all times when the spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow
the requirements for your spa’s support base found in section 4.0 titled,
“Choosing a Location” (Page 7).

exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid
accidents, ensure that children cannot use this spa unless they are
supervised at all times.
4. DANGER: Risk of Injury. The suction ttings in this spa are sized to
match the specic water ow created by the pump. Should the need
arise to replace the suction ttings or the pump, be sure that the ow
rates are compatible. Never operate the spa if the suction ttings are
broken or missing. Never replace a suction tting with one rated less
than the ow rate marked on the original suction tting.
5. DANGER: Risk of Electric Shock. Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from
all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be installed within
5 feet (1.5m) of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently
connected (bonded) by a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) solid cop-
per conductor attached to the wire connector on the grounding lug,
inside the equipment compartment on the equipment box.
6. DANGER: Risk of Electric Shock. Do not permit any electrical
appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, television, etc. within

Page 2

readily accessible and visible to the spa occupant but installed at
least 5 feet (1.5m) from the spa water.
8. WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Injury:
9. The water in a spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water
temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are consid-
ered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recom-
mended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
10. Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for caus-
ing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant
or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures
to 100°F (38°C). If pregnant, please consult your physician before
using a spa.
11. Before entering the spa, the user should measure the water tem-
perature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water
temperature-regulating devices may vary as much as +/- 5°F (2°C).
12. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use
may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
13. Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease,
low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, diabetes,
infectious diseases or immune deciency syndromes should consult
a physician before using a spa. If you experience breathing difcul-
ties in association with using or operating your spa, discontinue use
and consult your physician.
14. Persons using medication should consult a physician before using
a spa since some medication may induce drowsiness, while other
medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
15. Always shower before and after using your spa. To reduce the pos-
sibility of contracting a waterborne illness, always maintain water
chemistry within the parameters listed on the inside cover of this
manual. If you or other bathers experience such a condition, discon-
tinue use and seek medical attention.

Grounding or the symbol*is located inside the supply terminal box
or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal
must be connected to the grounding means provided in the elec-
tric supply service panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent
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
external surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/
compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local
common bonding grid in the area of the spa to these terminals with
an insulated or bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG
(10mm2).
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 (10mm2).
5. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: Children should not use spas without adult supervision.
WARNING: Do not use spas unless all suction guards are installed to
prevent body and hair entrapment.
WARNING: People with infectious diseases should not use a spa.
WARNING: To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the

WARNING: Water temperature in excess of 38 °C (104 °F) may be
injurious to your health.
WARNING: Before entering the spa, measure the water temperature
with an accurate thermometer.
WARNING: Do not use a spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
WARNING: Prolonged immersion in a spa may be injurious to your
health.
WARNING: Do not permit electric appliances (such as light, telephone,
radio, television, etc.) within 5 feet (1.5m) of this spa unless factory
installed.
CAUTION: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s
instructions.
WARNING: The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of
fatal hyperthermia in spas.
3.2 Hyperthermia
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. A descrip-
tion 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,
and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of
hyperthermia include:
A Unawareness of impending hazard;
B. Failure to perceive heat;
C. Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;
D. Physical inability to exit spa;
E. Fetal damage in pregnant women; and
F. Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.
Page 5

3.3 Cautions
1. Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood
pressure, and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant
women, the elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before
using a spa.
2. The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that
the water temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C).
Immersion in water in excess of 104°F (40°C) can be hazardous to
your health.
3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long expo-
sures at higher temperatures can cause high body temperature.
Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and
reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drowning.
4. Do not use the spa under the inuence of alcohol, narcotics, or other
drugs. Use of the spa under these conditions may lead to serious
consequences.
5. Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa.
Enter and exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.
6. Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the spa. Never
operate any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you
are wet unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.
7. Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to maintain
safe water and prevent possible damage to spa components.
8. Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in
use. This will help to discourage unsupervised children from enter-
ing the spa and 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.
3.4 General Electrical Safety Instructions
Your new Sundance® 780 Series Spa is equipped with a "state-of-
the-art" equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and
self-protective equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa must
be installed properly to ensure dependable usage. Please contact your
local Sundance dealer or local building department should you have any
questions regarding your installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Sundance spas are equipped
with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is provided
on the surface of the control box, located outside the equipment door
(Figure-B, page 14) to permit connection of a bonding wire between
this point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit
Page 6

within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried
within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa. Bonding wire must be at least No. 8 AWG
(8.4mm2) solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assurance
feature.
Before installing your spa, check with your local building department to
ensure installation conforms to local building codes.
120/240 Volt Metro Convertible Model
A spa connected to a 120VAC electrical service must be located close
enough to a grounded, grounding-type electrical outlet so that the
included power cord can be plugged directly into it. DO NOT USE AN
EXTENSION CORD as this could cause damage to the spa’s equipment
due to insufcient voltage. The power supplied to this spa must
be a dedicated circuit with no other appliances or lights sharing the
power provided by the circuit.
4.0 Choosing A Location
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 supporting 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 responsibil-
ity of the spa owner to assure the integrity of the support over time. We
recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thick-
ness of 4 inches (10cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is
constructed so that it meets the requirements outlined above.
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 the jets components, especially on
the side with the equipment bay doors.

4.1 Outdoor Location
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, 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 spa (this should be free of debris so
that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).
• The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and
birds could create extra work in keeping the spa 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 spa under an unguttered roof overhang since run-off water
will shorten the life expectancy of the spa cover.
4.2 Indoor Location
For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before
installing a spa indoors:
• PROPER FOUNDATION: Consult a Structural Engineer when con-
sidering 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 balco-
nies, roofs or other platforms not specifically tied into the main struc-
tural 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 sufficiently handle excessive water spillage. Be sure
the flooring 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 flooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent struc-
tures 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

Page 9
mold and mildew, over time this can damage certain surfaces and or
surroundings.
• 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.
WARNING: In addition to maintenance of lters and water
chemistry, proper ventilation is recommended to reduce the
risk of exposure to viruses and bacteria that could be present
in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or building
contractor to determine your specic needs if installing your
spa indoors.
5.0 Power Requirements
Sundance® spas are designed to provide optimum performance and
exibility of use when connected to the maximum electrical service listed
in the tables listed on page 10-11. If you prefer, your qualified techni-
cian can perform a minor circuit board modication to allow your spa to
accept an electrical service other than the factory setting. Turn page for
details.
