Preconditions

1. Preconditions

1.1 Subsoil / Foundation

1.2 Power supply

1.3 Fresh water

1.4 Waste water

1.5 Delivery

1.6 Noise insulation

The foundation should be level, firm and have the same dimensions as

the whirlpool (see specifications for measurements). The entire base of

the whirlpool must lie absolutely flat on the ground so that its weight

is properly supported. There must be sufficient headroom above the

whirlpool for getting in and out with ease.

Total connected load: 16 A / 230 V / 50 Hz (for PentaP, Sienna XL: 2 x 16 A

230 V / 50 Hz) 30 and a 30 mA ground fault interrupter (GFI). The whirlpool

is fitted with a plug for provisional use. This should be removed once the

whirlpool is fully operational. The whirlpool must be connected to the

main power supply using a cable with a cross-section of 3 x 2.5 mm2. The

installation should be carried out by a qualified and approved electrician

and in compliance with local regulations (see diagram 1.2).

The whirlpool should be filled using a water hose supplied by the customer.

The whirlpool itself has no connection to the water supply. Only water of

drinking water quality from the mains should be used.

The whirlpool should be emptied with the help of a hosepipe.

Underneath the tub is a check valve to which the hose can be attached.

The whirlpool is delivered on a pallet. The packaging is fitted with handles/

straps for easy transportation. These handles/straps make it possible to

carry the pool either horizontally or to carry it vertically. To avoid any risk

of damage during transportation to the customer, the whirlpool should be

taken to its destination completely packaged. Immediately on arrival the

pool should be unpacked and inspected for any signs of damage.

If the pool is to be installed next to bedrooms, for example, or any other

rooms which according to DIN 4109 require special noise insulation,

additional measures will have to be taken.

2.7 To reverse the digits

The whirlpool should be installed on a firm and level foundation. The

surface upon which the pool is to be placed should be checked to make

sure it is perfectly flat. Similarly, a check should be carried out with a spirit

level to ensure that the whirlpool is standing even. The valve for emptying

the whirlpool will have been closed at the factory. However, before filling

the whirlpool this should be checked again. Then the whirlpool should be

half-filled with fresh tap water. This is marked on the skimmer plate with the

words „WATERLEVEL“. Filling the whirlpool way above this level will result in

a poor skimming effect. Filling the whirlpool below this level can result in air

entering the system and the equipment will switch itself off, (error message

„DRY“). If the pool is being used by several people at the same time or by

very large people, it can be useful to keep the water level lower. Once the

pool has been filled, it should be connected to the mains.

After the pool has been connected to the mains, it will initially start up in

checking mode (shown as „PR“ in the display). This checking mode lasts

about 4-5 minutes. After that the filter pump will start up, the whirlpool

will be heated and the water temperature will be maintained at standard

level. The pool can be switched off by interrupting the electric current at

the circuit breaker. Caution: Interrupting the current supply incapacitates

the frost protection function, so always be sure to empty the pool after

switching off the power supply.

The LCD always displays the last recorded temperature. Please note that

the last recorded water temperature can only be shown with accuracy

after pump 1 has been operating for at least 2 minutes. To program the

pool to the desired temperature, press the „warm“ or „cool“ button controls

once. Every time either one of the buttons is being pressed, the temperature

rises or falls. After 3 seconds the LCD display will automatically show the

latest recorded water temperature.

If the frost protector sensor installed in the heater detects a temperature

drop to 6,7° C degrees the pump switches itself on automatically and the

system keeps working until a temperature of +/- 7, 2 ° C has been reached. In

cooler climate regions an additional sensor can be installed. Please ask your

dealer for further information.

Press the „Time“, „Jet 1“ and „Warm“ control buttons within 3 seconds.

Once the control panel has been locked, the display will show the water

temperature and the lock symbol „PL“=Panel Locked. All the buttons apart

from the time button are now locked. To unlock the control panel, press the

„Time“, „Jet 1“ and „Cool“ control buttons within 2 seconds.

The temperature control can be locked by, when entering the water

temperature and after pressing the „Warm“ or „Cool“ button within

3 seconds, the „Time“, „Jet 1“and „Warm“ buttons are being pressed. Once

the panel is locked, the middle display will show the water temperature and

the lock symbol „TL“= Temperature Locked. To unlock the control panel,

press the buttons „Cool“, „Time“, „Jet 1“, „Cool“.

By pressing „Cool“ – „ Blower“ the digits as shown on the display can be

reversed.

2. Start up and use

2.8.1 Jet 1 (jet nozzles)

2.8.2 Jet 2

2.8.3 Reversing valve and

massage jets

Massage pump Jet 1 will be switched on and off by pressing the Jet 1 but-

ton. Should the pump not be switched off manually it will automatically

start again after 15 minutes.

For models of the series I the filtration will be activated through the 2-speed

pump by pressing Jet 1. Die Bediensequenz ist wie folgt:

Press x 1: filtration on (if not yet set ion the display for filter cycles)

Press x 2: Jet 1 on

Press x 3: off

Jets are switched off automactically after 30 minutes.

Disinfection cycle: 60 minutes after the use of one of the massage

functions, the filter and ozone generator will switch on and run a

disinfection cycle for 30 minutes.

Pressing button „Jet 2“ switches Pump 2 on and off. If Pump 2 is not

switched off manually, the pump will be switched off automatically after

15 minutes. This button is also available when the pool has only 1 massage

pump.

The reversing valve on the side of the pool determines which jets are being

activated when the pump runs.

Mid-position: The water flows through all jets evenly. The valve should

always be in this position when the whirlpool is not in use.

Left-position: This is the massage setting for jet line 1.

Right-position: Massage setting for jet line 2.

The reversing valve can be moved in between these positions in order to

adjust the intensity of the massage individually. In order to do so, turn off the

jet pump, switch the valve, then turn on the jet pump again.

In addition, the intensity of the massage of the Super jets (and with some

models the Hydro Jets) can be adjusted by turning the nozzle.

When the pump runs on high speed, additional air can be added to the jets

while on position “Jet 1” or “Jet 2”. In order to do this, the air control on the

side of the pool needs to be opened by turning the lever. The air supply

should be closed after the pool has been used.

Start up and use

2.8 Start up and use

2.8.4 Cascade

2.8.5 Blower

2.8.6 Lighting

Start up and use

All models except the Penta P are equipped with a cascade.

The water cascade is fed by the filter pump and only operates when the filter

pump runs. The filtration time is programmed from 08:00hrs until 22:00hrs

and 18:00hrs 22:00hrs.

The cascade can be controlled by opening and closing the valve on the side.

When the pool is covered, the control valve should be closed. Otherwise, water

will be pushed under the cover and water could run over the border of the pool.

Note: the cascade can’t be closed completely. This is to avoid standing water

in the pipes. The performance of the cascade diminishes as the filter cartridge

becomes dirtier. This means that, when the water pressure becomes too little,

the cartridge should be cleaned or replaced.

By pressing this button the air blower will be switched on and off. The

blower switches itself off automatically after 15 minutes. Note: At low

outside temperatures cold air is blown into the whirlpool. The water

temperature might drop and the heater might not be able to compensate

this difference immediately. Even with normal outside temperatures the

air blown into the pool could feel cold to the skin when the bather sits or

lays directly on a jet nozzle. This button always exists even if the pool is not

equipped with a blower.

The lights are turned on by pressing this button. The lights are turned off

automatically after 4 hours. When an LED light is present, the colours and

the speed of the light change when the button „Light“ is being pressed.

2.8.10 Preset filter cycles

Mode/Prog: This control button is used to switch between the three operat-

ing modes – STANDARD, ECONOMY and SLEEP. To program the mode, press

the „Mod/Prog“ button, then press „Cool“ to switch through to the desired

mode (LCD light flashes to acknowledge), and finally „Mode/Prog“ to confirm

the choice.

Standard mode (STANDARD). In this mode the desired water temperature is

maintained. Please note that the temperature measured last only shows when

the pump has run for at least 2 minutes. „STANDARD“ remains displayed until

a different mode is selected.

Economy mode (ECONOMY). In this mode the water is only heated up to the

desired temperature during the filter cycles. „ECONOMY“ remains displayed

until a different mode is selected. By pressing „Jet 1“ in economy mode, the

system switches from standard to economy (STANDARD-In-ECONOMY): This

mode is like the standard mode, but changes automatically after one hour to

the economy mode. By pressing „Mode/Prog“ during this time, the system is

switched to economy immediately.

Sleep mode (SLEEP). In this mode the water is only heated up during the filter

cycles to within 11º C (20º F) below the desired temperature. „SLEEP“ remains

displayed until the mode is being changed.

STANDBY: By pressing „Warm“ or „Cool“ and then „Jets 2“ the whirlpool func-

tions are temporarily turned off. This is useful when a filter has to be replaced.

The whirlpool starts up again by pressing any button.

Please Note: An electrical blocking mechanism makes it impossible for the

heater to work at the same time as the massage pumps or blower. If they are

switched on, the heater automatically switches itself off. As soon as the pumps

are switched off, the heater switches itself on again. The minimum set-point

temperature is 26º C.

When the whirlpool is switched on, the „SET TIME“ message flashes in the

display. To set the time, press first

, then

and finally

. Once

has been pressed, the time changes by intervals of one minute. Press

again to stop the time from changing any more. Press

for the

system to register the new time.

Although it may not be necessary to alter the filter cycle, it can be adjusted by

pressing the control buttons

within three seconds.The display

message „SET START FILTER 1“ (AM cycle, 0.00 -12.00 hrs) will appear. To set

the starting time of the filter cycle, press the

button. After pressing

the display message „SET STOP FILTER 1“ will appear. Now enter the stop

time using the

buttons as described above. After pressing the

button, the display message „SET STOP FILTER 2“ (PM cycle, 12.00 - 24.00 hrs)

will appear. When the

button is pressed, the whirlpool registers the new

cycle times and displays the current water temperature.

The first filter cycle is automatically activated at 8.00 hrs (8.00 AM).

Pump 1 works at low speed until 12.00 Noon. The second filter cycle is automati-

cally activated at 18.00 hrs (6.00 PM). Pump 1 works at low speed until 22.00

hrs (10 PM). During the filtration period, the filtration pump and the ozone

generator are in operation. Before the filtration period starts the blower always

flushes the air channel system for 30 seconds.Pumps 1 and 2 are running for

1 minutes.

Care and maintenance

3. Care and maintenance

3.1 Water maintenance

3.1.1 Filtration

3.1.2 Flocculation

Thorough water maintenance forms the basis for a hygienic whirlpool.

Clean and clear water is visually appealing and contributes considerably to

the overall feeling of well being. Inadequate water maintenance can have

an adverse effect on one’s health. The following elements are essential

components of good water maintenance.

Filtration: impurities which have dissolved in the water are mechani-

cally being left behind in the filter.

Flocculation: Adding a flocculant to the water causes even the tiniest

particles to bind, making them large enough to be filtered out.

pH value: Indicates when the water has reached an “equilibrium”, when

bathing is at its most pleasant and disinfectants can work best.

Disinfectant: should be used to kill any germs.

Adding fresh water: The use of disinfectants can lead to salt deposits

building up in the water. These should be kept as low as possible by adding

fresh water.

The filter should operate automatically for 6-8 hours per day. Besides

servicing the filter regularly, the cartridges should be cleaned regularly as

well.

The whirlpool’s skim filter is fitted with very fine non woven filter cartridges

which keep impurities out of the water. The cartridge itself is capable of

lasting many years but should be changed every 12 months. A set of

replacement cartridges is included in the delivery.

The filter cartridges should be cleaned at regular intervals (weekly or

monthly, depending on how often the pool is used).

The cartridges should be cleaned as follows:

• Remove the skimmer lid.

• Pull out the skimmer basket.

• Unscrew the cartridges from the skim filter and rinse

thoroughly inside and outside with a strong jet of water.

• To insert the cartridge, follow the steps in reverse. Make sure

that the cartridge is correctly locked into position.

Note: A blocked filter can prevent the flow of water in the system and result

in a reduced performance by the jets as well as a breakdown of the heating

system.

Adding flocculation agents to the water helps the finest of impurities to

bind so that they can be filtered and kept out of the whirlpool. Such tiny

particles can be seen in the beam of the underwater light, where they

appear as the smallest of bubbles. Where this is the case, a solid flocculation

agent should be used in cartridge form so that it can be placed in the water

or the skimmer basket. Do not use liquid flocculation agents, as it can be

difficult to gauge the correct dosage.

3.2 Cleaning and Maintenance

of the surface

The pH-value in the whirlpool should be between 7.2 and 7.4. This is the

ideal level for a disinfectant to work most efficiently and the water feels soft

to the skin and is not corrosive. The strong addition of air when the massage

jets are in use means that there can very quickly be a big increase in the pH

value. It is therefore necessary to lower the pH manually. This is done by

adding pH reducers, normally approx. 7 gr. per 1000 litres of water to reduce

the pH value by 0.1. The pH value should be measured and regulated at least

1 x week.

The installed ozone generator supports the disinfection. If the pool is

used daily by 2 persons an additional disinfection becomes necessary.

Chlorine or oxygen should be used. For the correct concentration, follow

the manufacturer’s or product recommendations. In the case of inorganic

chlorine, for example, 0.6 to 1 mg/l should be used. The disinfectant is best

applied in the form of tablets which can be placed in the skimmer baskets.

Notice: The ozone generator switches off when the massage pumps are

activated.

Through the disinfection of the water in the whirlpool, salt deposits build

up. To keep this build-up as low as possible, fresh water should be added.

This is why after every bath the whirlpool should be topped up to its normal

level, 13 cm below the rim. A complete change of water should take

place approximately every 8 weeks.

The whirlpool should be emptied as follows:

- Set the main switch to the „off „position.

- Attach the hose to the check valve.

- Open the check valve and allow all the water to drain out of the pool.

The surface of the pool is sanitary acrylic and the cabinet is made of smooth

polyester, making it easy to clean. Marks should always be removed using

plenty of lukewarm water and a soft sponge to avoid any scratches of the

surface.

Limestone and metal should be washed down with an acidic cleaner such

as a mixture of vinegar and water.

Dirt and scum marks can be removed with lye. Care must always be taken,

however, not to use foaming cleaning liquids, powders or creams on the

acrylic surface of the whirlpool as any residue could bubble up when the

whirlpool is in use.

Do not use cleaning agents in pressurized containers! Do not clean stainless

steel with acidic products!

Dull surfaces can be polished up so that they shine even after years. A

special surface polish called „Poolfinish“ is available for just this purpose.

This is applied with a soft cotton cloth and polished with gentle circular

movements. Minor scratches can also be removed this way.

ATTENTION! Please do not use any solvent-containing cleaners as they might

affect the acrylic surface.

Dull surfaces can be polished up so that they shine even after years. A

special surface polish called „Poolfinish“ is available for just this purpose.

This is applied with a soft cotton cloth and polished with gentle circular

movements. Minor scratches can also be removed this way.

Wood is a natural product and depending on weathering its appearance

will change over the course of time. Teak only acquires its unique silvery

sheen after a certain weathering. A degree of „movement“ with wood is

unavoidable. We recommend taking precautions to keep weathering to a

minimum.

Wooden surfaces should be kept as dry as possible. They should be cleaned

with lukewarm water and a leather cloth.

If required, teak surfaces can be treated with a special varnish. This is

painted onto the wood and gives the surface a new sheen. Before treating

teak in this way, the surface must be rubbed down using fine sandpaper. A

tin of teak varnish is provided with every whirlpool.

If the Isola spa is not used during winter the following has to be observed:

The pool is set on “sleep mode“ and remains filled with water. Adjust the

temperature to 36 degrees C.

Clean the filter cartridge.

The water will now be disinfected and filtered during winter. The temperature

might fall to 11 degrees C but the frost proctection is activated.

Attention: In the event of an electricity cut-off the “ sleep mode” has to be

reset . If not done the pool might get damaged through frost.

Please check the water level in regular intervals.

To restart the operations set into “ standard mode”.The water will now be

heated to the set value 36 degrees C.

Please check the water level.

Please clean the filter cartridge.

Switch off the electricity supply. Open all the valves and drain the pool and

the piping system. Open the drainage screws of the massage pumps. Take the

cartridge out of the filter, clean it and store it in a dry place.

Place the hard top cover on the pool; if necessary remove snow.

To restart the operations close all the valves again, replace the drainage screws

into the massage pumps, refill the pool up to the mark on the skimmer and

switch on the electricity. (please see 2.2 “switching the power supply on/off”)
