We'd recommend Spatec 450B 750B 850B and 950B as they have an aluminium structure (the other spas have a galvanised steel structure which can be damaged in coastal areas due to salinity).
Maintenance is very simple, all you need to do is keep the right amount of pH and bromine levels and schedule the ozone cleaning to run at least 4 hours a day.
Finally clean the paper filter with water every week and replace it every 6 months.
You will find all the details in the user's manual for outdoor SPA.
From our website, you can purchase the spa maintenance kit, which includes all the products necessary for correct water levels.
Remember that it is advisable to change the water every 6 months even if the water is clear.
SPAs are sent fully assembled, all you have to do is place it on a flat and stable surface, preferably concrete. Once it's been placed, you'll have to connect it to a 220V electrical socket with a grounding point that can withstand 2KW-10KW (depending on the model). This installation will have to be carried out by a qualified electrician.
You will find all the details in the user's manual for outdoor SPAs.
No, the SPA does not need a water connection, it can be easily filled using a hose.
In this case, we recommend that you check the water levels (bromine and pH) and increase the daily filtering hours.
If you are not going to use the spa for an extended period of time, we recommend that you disconnect the spa completely from the power supply, drain the spa through the drain valve, remove the filter, and clean and dry the spa with a soft cloth.
Remember that if your used filter is out of the spa for more than a week, you will need to replace the outdoor spa filter with a new one.
In the case of very cold climates, we recommend leaving the spa filled up and setting it at a low temperature so that the water does not freeze; another option would be to drain the spa completely and disconnect it from the mains, in this case we'd recommend:
- Completely disconnect the spa from the power supply.
- Completely drain the spa.
- Thoroughly clean the spa (walls and bottom).
- Vacuum out any water that may remain in the lines to prevent it from freezing and causing damage.
Don't worry as it takes approximately 1 hour per degree for the spa to warm up, it can take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature when first installed, depending on the outside temperature and the initial water temperature.
The cover is very important and has several functions, as it is used to economise and bring the spa up to temperature more quickly, to prevent leaves and dirt from falling into the water when it is not in use and to protect the spa from the sun and extend its lifespan.
All of our outdoor spas have a drain valve on one side of the spa where you can also connect a hose to take the water to a desired point.
Our spas have side skirt-panels that can be easily removed to access its interior if necessary.
Yes, from the control panel, you can choose the filtering settings and select the hours of the day you prefer.
We recommend a minimum of 4 hours of filtering per day for good water maintenance.
To ensure good performance of the SPA, we recommend the external spa filter is removed weekly and cleaned with pressurised water to remove any impurities it may have. Once it is clean, place it back in the skimmer.
Yes you can, using the Balboa Wifi / Gecko Wifi accessory. You can connect your spa via wifi and control its functions directly from your mobile or tablet.
This product is only compatible with the following models: Spatec 450B, 500B, 700B, 750B, 800B, 850B and 950B.
Ozone disinfects the water and also helps the chemical products that are added to the water to work even better, such as bromine, so less chemical products are used and needed.
1. Unplug the spa.
2. Drain the water through the drain valve until the spa has no water in it.
3. Remove the filters and throw them away, since if they are not submerged in water for a few days you will not be able to reuse them. You will need to install new filters when you use the spa again.
4. Unplug the pumps - circulation, heater, whirlpool, air, etc., meaning: disconnect the pumps to allow the water to drain from the plumbing to neutralize the risk of internal condensation.
5. Dry the pipes: Any water left in the pipes can be sucked out of the air and water jets through a liquid suction pump. Make sure the spa jets are open before performing this operation.
6. Drain any remaining water from the bottom of the spa.
To solve this problem, empty the spa, clean it and refill it.
To prevent this from happening again, remember to maintain the correct pH and bromine levels and increase the hours of daily filtering.
Remember that it is advisable to change the water every 6 months even if the water is clear.
To remove the skirts of the outdoor spa, you have to follow the steps shown in the picture, normally the skirt that needs to be removed for the electrical installation is the one under the control panel:
To reinstall it, just follow the same steps in reverse.
