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 Models Only) 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 as
dened by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals:
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 pages 47-48 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 42-43 for detailed lter cartridge replacement instructions.
Required Water Replacement
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 47-48 for additional information.

you can about hot tub safety and emergency procedures. Especially
useful are the brochures listed below.
• Children Aren’t Waterproof
• Pool and Spa Emergency Procedures For Infants and Children
• Layers of Protection
• The Sensible Way to Enjoy Your Spa or Hot Tub
The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals publishes these
brochures. You can acquire a brochure in one of the ways in the list
below.
• Ask your hot tub dealer (they may have copies)
• Go to http://www.apsp.org
• Conduct your own search on the internet

This spa is not intended nor designed to be used in a commercial or
public application. The spa buyer shall determine whether there are any
code restrictions on the use or installation of this spa since local code
requirements vary from one locality to another.

Page 8
880 SERIES
3.0 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 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 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.
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.
3.1 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.

Page 9
880 SERIES
3.2 Indoor Location
For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before
installing a spa 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.
• 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 hot tub indoors.

exibility of use when connected to their maximum electrical service.
However, they are shipped factory congured for their most common
preferred electrical connection as follows:

If you prefer, a qualified technician can perform a minor circuit board
modication that allows the hot tub to operate on a different electrical
service (see table below).
