Important spa owner Information
Your Jacuzzi® J-200 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 spa surface directly exposed to sunlight
and high temperatures for an extended period is subject to permanent
damage. Damage caused by exposing the spa to this abuse is not
covered under warranty. We recommend that you always keep the spa
full of water when it is exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the
Jacuzzi premium 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
Jacuzzi constantly strives to offer the finest spas available,
therefore modifications and enhancements may be made which
affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions contained
herein.

General electrical safety Instructions
®
Your new Jacuzzi 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 Jacuzzi
dealer or local building department should you have any questions
regarding your installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Jacuzzi 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
and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit 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 (8.4 mm²)
solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assurance feature.
Before installing your spa, check with your local building department to
insure installation conforms to local building codes.

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, flat, 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 at all times.
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.
warnInG: For spas that are to rest on balconies,
roofs or other platforms not specifically tied into main
!
structural support, consult a professional structural
engineer 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, overflow and other casual water to flood the
equipment and create a wet condition in which it would sit in. For spas
which will be recessed into a floor 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 side panels and access to the jet components, especially on the
side with the equipment bay.
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 spa, we suggest that you
take into consideration:
•
•
•
•
•
The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder
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.
•
For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not
specifically tied into main structural support, consult a professional
Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.
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
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 specifically 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 sufficiently handle excessive water spillage. Be
sure the flooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage
and can handle the entire contents of the spa. Be sure to make
provisions for ceilings and 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 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 which 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 to 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 filters and water
chemistry, proper ventilation is recommended to reduce the
!
risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection,
bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments that could be
present in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or
building contractor to determine your specific needs if
installing your hot tub indoors.

spa Fill up procedure
For best results, read each step in its entirety before proceeding with that
step.
1. prepare The spa For Filling
•
Clear all debris from the spa. (Although the spa shell has been
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially
formulated spa cleaner.) Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for
additional information prior to filling spa.
•
Remove filter cover, then remove filter cartridge as outlined in section
2. Fill spa
• Place the end of your garden hose into the empty filter bucket.
CauTIon: To DeCrease BuIlD up on ComponenTs anD
mInImIZe aCrYlIC DamaGe.
Never fill with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely
“hard”, it is preferable to fill half-way with hard water and the rest of
the way with softened water. You may fill entirely with hard water if
you use a special water additive available from your Jacuzzi dealer.
!
•
warnInG: To DeCrease rIsk oF InFeCTIon or
DIsease.
Fill hot tub with clean tap water from garden hose, to reduce risk of
contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus)
and/or respiratory ailments. Fill until water covers all jets but does not
touch the bottom of the lowest headrest. (DO NOT OVERFILL!)
3. Turn on power
Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker to start boot
automatically activate after several seconds. If the control panel LED
flashes water temperature and “COL” or “ICE” this is normal, refer to
4. activate Jets pumps

Never leave chemicals opened and accessible to anyone.
Use chemicals according to the vendors instructions. Always
store chemicals in a safe and/or locked location. Keep away
from and out of reach of children.
6. establish a stable sanitizer reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm chlorine or 2.0-
4.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always maintain
a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended by the
Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA printed on the inside
cover of this manual. If sanitizer levels cannot be stabilized, perform the
note: The “decontamination procedure” steps 9-16 should also be used
sitting without power for an extended period.
7. set spa To Heat
To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature,
follow these steps:
•
•
The LED display on the control panel displays the
actual temperature of the spa water. Press either
the COOLER ( ) or WARMER ( ) button once
to display the “set” temperature for 5 seconds. If you want the water
to heat to a different temperature, simply press COOLER ( ) or
WARMER ( ) within 5 seconds. The set temperature increases or
decreases by one degree each time one of these buttons is pressed.
The heater will turn off when the temperature corresponding to the
thermostat setting is achieved.
Important Heater Details:
•
The maximum water temperature setting for your spa is 104°F
(40°C) and the minimum setting is 65°F (18°C).
•
For North America spas connected to a 40 amp service, jets pump
#1 must be set to low speed and jets pump #2 must be turned off to
operate the heater.
•
For Export spas connected to a 20 amp service, jets pump #1 must
be set to low speed and jets pump #2 must be turned off to operate
the heater.
•
•
Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating
process. This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.
The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set
temperature”, then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the
water cools to approximately 1.5° below the set temperature.

air Controls
Certain jet systems have their own air control. Each control
introduces air into the water lines that supply that specific
jet group. Simply turn the air control of choice
counterclockwise to open or clockwise to close. To
minimize heat loss, all air controls should be closed when the spa is not
in use.
11.0 automatic Filtration Cycles
The control system activates a programmable “standard” or “economy”
filtration cycle to remove debris from your spa. These cycles use the low
speed jets pump 1 and filter cartridge to quickly clear “skim” the water
of debris and minimize their “bathtub ring” affect while the spa is in use
or during a programmed filter cycle. Models equipped with the optional
24-hour circulation pump offer the added benefit of 24-hour filtration for
pennies a day!
Apart from their filtration benefit, each filtration mode also effects the
operation of the spa heater. Refer to sections 11.1 and 11.2 for details.
11.1
standard Filtration/heating Modes For Models without
Circulation pump option (all models)
Standard filtration/heating modes (F1-F3) are typically selected by
customers in cold climates where heat up times are extended due
to lower ambient temperatures. In either of these modes, the water
temperature is regulated by the set temperature, low-speed jets pump
1 and heater which turns on as needed. After the programmed set
temperature is reached, the heater and low speed pump turn off, only to
turn back on during a heat call or during the next programmed filtration/
heating cycle.
11.2
standard Filtration/heating Modes For Models with
Circulation Pump option (J-230, J-270 and J-280 only)
Standard filtration/heating modes (F0-F3) are typically selected by
customers in cold climates where heat up times are extended due
to lower ambient temperatures. In either of these modes, the water
temperature is regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation
pump and heater which turns on as needed. After the programmed set
temperature is reached, the heater turns off and the circulation pump
continues to operate 24-hours to filter and clean your spa.

11.3
economy Filtration/heating Modes (all Models)
Economy filtration/heating modes (F4-F6) are typically selected by
customers in warm climates where heat up times are minimized due
to higher ambient temperatures. In either of these modes, the water
temperature is regulated by the set temperature, low-speed pump or
optional circulation pump, and heater only while a programmed filtration/
heating cycle is running.
note: These modes can be used to conserve energy while on vacation
or out of town for several weeks since heater operation is minimized.
During such times, you can also minimize the spa set temperature to
maximize energy savings!

Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from
suction fittings, 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, filter, filter lid, or skimmer
assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.
Never operate or use the spa if the filter, filter 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 fittings and suction covers in this spa are sized to match
the specific water flow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to
replace the suction fittings, suction covers or pump(s), be sure that the
flow rates are compatible and are in compliance with the VGB Safety

power To spa oFF BeFore CleanInG THe FIlTer CarTrIDGe!
J-210 models:
These model spas are equipped with a skimmer basket and filter
cartridge located in the skimmer/filter well. Filtering is accomplished
when jets pump #1 turns on in low speed initiating water flow through
the skimmer basket and polyester mesh filter cartridge. As this happens,
suspended particles become trapped on the filter’s surface.
To Clean Filter:
1. Turn off power to the spa at the home’s breaker panel or select the L1
“Lock Out” mode (page 29) to disable all spa functions.
2. Remove the filter strainer lid assembly.
3. Remove the filter cartridge by rotating it counterclockwise to unthread it
from the filter wall fitting, then lift it straight up to remove from filter well.
4. Using a garden hose with a high-pressure nozzle, rinse debris from
the filter pleats beginning at the top and working your way downward.
Continue, one section at a time, until you have rinsed all of the filter’s
pleats.

J-200 Series
To ensure optimum performance, clean and reuse the skimmer bag and
filter cartridge once a month or as necessary, depending on use.
J-210 models include filters on their footwell suction covers
(shown right) that prevent debris from entering the pump and
the massage selector(s), when operating. These filters must
remain in place to protect these components from debris
entrapment/damage. They should be cleaned every 2 months,
or when weak pump performance is observed.
J-230, J-270 and J-280 Models:
These model spas are equipped with a skimmer bag and one high
performance pleated filter cartridge located under the filter cover as
illustrated below. Debris are filtered by the optional circulation pump
(when equipped) drawing water through the skimmer bag and filter
cartridge 24-hours a day, or by jets pump 1 when running a programmed
filter cycle or when manually activated by spa use. Combined, both
filters provide unsurpassed water quality by trapping surface oils and
suspended particles. The filter cartridge should be cleared once a month,
or as needed for optimum performance.

12.2
Draining and refilling
About every 3 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The
frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of
use, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. 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.
CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To prevent damage
to the spa’s components, turn off power to the spa at the circuit
breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until
your spa has been refilled.
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind when
draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors,
freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment, see “WINTERIZ-
the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps:
Turn off power to spa at breaker.
1. Locate and remove the synthetic cabinet
door screws and door. The door is located
directly below the control panel.
2. Cut Zip Tie(s) and pull drain hose from
Figure - a
equipment area (Figure-A).
3. Hold drain hose above water line, then
unthread drain cap (1) from hose using a
counterclockwise rotation. Place drain hose
on ground, turn valve (2) counterclockwise
to start drain, making sure to direct water
away from spa (Figure B).
4. After spa is drained, turn valve clockwise to
close and reinstall drain cap on drain hose
fitting until finger tight! DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Figure - B
5. Coil drain hose up and place back inside the spa equipment bay (Fig. A).
6. Reinstall synthetic cabinet door and screws, then refer to the “Spa
12.3
pillow Care
Remove and clean each headrest by gently grasping both ends in each
hand and pulling upward to release each pillow “snap.” To reinstall,
simply “snap” each pillow back into place. Clean as needed with soapy
water using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and
luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always remove
the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the spa water. The
headrests can be returned to the spa when the sanitizer reading drops
below 4 ppm.

12.4
Cleaning The spa Interior
To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you avoid
using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse chemical effect
on the surface. If you are not certain as to the suitability of a particular
cleanser, consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. Regardless of the
cleanser used, use extreme care to assure that no soap residue is left on
the surface. This could cause severe sudsing when the spa is refilled.
12.5
maintaining the Cover
Using the Jacuzzi insulating spa cover anytime the spa is not in use will
significantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time and maintenance
requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it with care and
clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic treatments with a
special conditioner developed for Jacuzzi spa covers will help protect
against deterioration caused by UV rays from the sun.
Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover, and avoid dragging it
across rough surfaces.
12.6
Maintaining the synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of
any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap
solution.
CauTIon: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any
reason since this action may induce an electrical short in the
spa’s electrical equipment.
12.7
winterizing
Your Jacuzzi spa is designed to automatically protect itself against
freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing
temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the
electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter
cold weather less than -20°F (-29°C), choose the F3 “Standard” filtration/
use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power outage during periods of
severe freezing temperatures, it is important that all water be removed
from the spa and equipment to protect against damage from freezing.
For expert winterization of your spa, contact your authorized
Jacuzzi dealer. In emergency situations, damage can be minimized by
taking the following steps:
36
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
J-200 Series
CauTIon: Turn oFF power To HoT TuB!
1. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means
necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and
into the foot well.
2. When the water level ceases to drop, use whatever means available
to remove any remaining water from the foot well.
3. Turn off power to the spa.
4. Remove the synthetic cabinet panel under the control panel and
locate the drain plugs on the front of the pump(s), (Figure A, page
17). Remove plugs to allow water to drain out of pumps and heater.
note: Approximately one to two gallons will be released during this
procedure. Use a wet/dry vacuum or other means to keep this from
flooding the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.
5. Re-install synthetic cabinet side panel and cover spa so that no
casual moisture can enter into it.
Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer if you have any questions
regarding winter use or winterizing.
12.8
restarting Your spa in Cold weather
If you want to start up your spa after it has sat empty for a time in
freezing temperatures, be aware that the water remaining in certain
sections of the piping may still be frozen. This situation will block water
flow preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging
the equipment. We recommend you consult your authorized Jacuzzi
dealer for guidance before attempting to re-start your spa under these
conditions.
13.0 water Quality maintenance
To decrease the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection,
bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments, maintain water quality
within specified limits. This will enhance your enjoyment and prolong
the life of the hot tub’s equipment. Doing so requires regular attention
because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several factors.
Procrastination in regard to water maintenance will result in poor and
potentially unhealthful conditions for soaking and even damage to your
hot tub investment. For specific guidance on maintaining water quality,
consult your Authorized Jacuzzi dealer who can recommend appropriate
chemical products for sanitizing and maintaining your hot tub.

Can resulT In:
• Increase risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an
!
infection bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments
.
• Damage the equipment, components and spa shell, which
are not covered under the hot tub’s warranty.
CauTIon: Never store hot tub chemicals inside the hot tub’s equip-
ment bay. The equipment bay may reach elevated temperatures,
this is where high voltage electronic devices are located. This area
is not intended for storage of any kind.
13.1
pH Control
pH is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity of water and is measured
on a scale of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7 is said to be neutral, above which
is alkaline and below which is acidic. In spa water, it is very important
to maintain a slightly alkaline condition of 7.4 to 7.6. Problems become
proportionately severe the further outside of this range the water gets.
A low pH will be corrosive to metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will
cause minerals to deposit on the interior surface (scaling).
In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean is
severely affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. That is why
almost all spa water test kits contain a measure for pH as well as the
sanitizer.
13.2
sanitizing
To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a sanitizer
must be used regularly. Chlorine and bromine are the two most popular
sanitizers used to date. Many other additives are available for your spa.
Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some aid
in cosmetic water treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of
the water. Your authorized Jacuzzi dealer can advise you on the use
of these additives. When adding spa shock (chlorine or non-chlorine)
or pH balancing chemicals activate the jets pump(s) and leave the spa
cover open for a minimum of 20 minutes. By doing this you will allow
excessive chemical vapors to exit the spa, protecting pillows and plastic
knobs from chemical attack.

optional CD ozone water maintenance system
If you have elected to have your spa equipped with the optional Jacuzzi
CD ozone water purification system you will find that your water stays
fresh and clear with significantly less chemical sanitizer usage. You will
also probably be able to go longer between complete spa drainings.
14.0 error Conditions/error Messages
Your spa has a self-diagnostic control system. The system will
automatically display the following if a problem is detected.
14.1
summer logic (spas with Circulation pump
option)
When the actual spa water temperature reaches up to
2°F (1°C) above the set temperature, the spa goes into
“summer logic.” The 24-hour circulation pump will turn off
automatically to avoid adding additional heat to the water, eventually
creating an overheat condition. This setting is not user-programmable.
note: The summer logic does not take effect until the spa water
temperature reaches 95°F (35°C). This condition is more likely in
excessively hot weather. Remember, the spa’s ability to cool is directly
affected by the ambient temperature. An excessively hot ambient
temperature may prevent the spa from cooling down because it’s
fully insulated construction is designed to retain heat and to minimize
operating costs.
