  1. Yah, I think I agree with you... And no, i just cleaned them! But... I don't plan on using one again!
  2. I think we have corrected the issue. As I suspected, a filter sock got sucked into the plumbing (which was causing the FLO) problem. Somehow all the errors ICE/COLD/FLOW etc would freak out the board after 20 minutes. We are going to test today and see what happens.
  3. Hello, We have a 3 year oldt880 which was working fine until the end of last summer when it seemed as if the Spa was not heating properly. We drained the Spa and left it through the Winter, now that the weather is warmer and we have 'time' we are trying to get it up and running again. We filled the Spa up, replaced the filter, and turned on the breaker... Everything seemed to be going fine. It said ICE and showed the Heating icon. After 20 minutes I checked it again, this time the LCD was flashing everything... Seems as if every component on the LCD screen would randomly flash... The Jets were turning on and off.... I went and cut the power... Waited a hour, tried it again.... This time it showed ICE / FLO / COLD. I tried diagnosing the FLO error but before I could spend much time on it, the LCD started flashing randomly again and the jets were turning on and off..... I can't seem to find any information on this problem... I'm not sure what its related to.. First I thought Flow Switch, now I am thinking PC board? Ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!!
  4. Yepp.. I use it and havent had a problem. Water is always crystal clear and no odor. No its not as powefull of Chlorine but the whole reason tor using it is because its NOT. I am very allergic to Chlorine, thats why I use it. Less Chlorine = Better. I keep a .5-1 residual of Chlorine.
  5. Just follow the directions on the Nature2 website. You can use dichlor instead of MPS. I belive its .5 teaspoon every time you get in. Go to the website and do the math for your spa size. I use MPS during the week. If I have many ppl in the spa I use .5 teaspoon of dichlor aswell as the MPS. Once a week I shock with 1.5 Tablespoon of dichlor. This is with a nature 2 cartrige. You dont have to keep a 3-5ppm... I would keep about 1-2 since nature 2 only needs and reccomends .5 to .7ppm. Why are you using so much chlorine with nature2? its suppost to help you get away from using so much. You could just use about 5ppm and get rid off the nature2 cartrige.
  6. Guys, Somehow things got confused and I accidently used Leisure Time Renew first... After seeing my PH and Alkaline was too low I used Spa UP. You think everyhing will be ok? Also should I use this Metal Gon??
  7. My dealer reccomends spa 56 with has about 40% chlorine in it. But he is about a hour away and all I can get right now is spa guard chlorinaded concentrate which has 99% chlorine in it. Is this ok? Which is better to use with Nature2. The guy at Nature2 on the phone said to use the one with the most chlorine. In addition I just found out a local guy has something called Ultimate which is a dichlor with ph balancer and has 36% of chlorine in it. I belive it is similar to the spa 56.
  8. Great, thank you... Are there different kinds of dichlor? Like with different amounts of Chlorine?? If so which should I get?
  9. The N2 cartrige says its 98 grams. Its a special N2 cartrige specifically for Sundance spa's. It clips in around the filter area. What exactly is dichlor? I was under the impression it was the same as chlorine...? Can you give me some examples of a non-chlorine shock? Also I have city water which has chlorine in it. Will this effect how much chlorine I should put in it in the initial "fill up"??
  10. Hey guys, I was planning to fill my spa up today when I realized the Leisure Time startup kit my dealer gave me and the Sundance SunPurity Nature2 cartridge my dealer gave me, don't mention each other at all. The Nature2 website found at: http://www.nature2.com/spas2.asp Says to use Non-chlorine oxidizer (potassium peroxymonosulfate)* and some other things that don't seem to be in the Leisure Time kit. I am sensitive to chemicals and allergic to chlorine, this is why I decided to go with Nature2 since I don't need as much chlorine. My question to you is does the Leisure Time kit have the things I need (just with different brand names) to use with the Nature2 cartridge? I plan to use the spa heavily at least in the beginning, just about every night before bed with 2-3 people. I have the Sundance Altamar 880 series spa which I believe has a .3 micron filter in it. I also noticed the Leisure Time kit revolves around Bromine but Nature2 says NOT TO USE BROMINE. Any recommendations on what to do? Closest dealer is hour and a half away, I wonder if Wal-Mart sells some of the things I need such as chlorine? What should I do! I wish everything could just be simple Thanx in advance.
  11. My manual is for teh 880 series so no mention about the cayman... But will it run all at once with the pumps on high?? The 880 series also has an additional blower.
  12. Hey guys, I have decided to put my spa on 60A vs the 50A Factory setting. I was told all I had to do was move a jumper around, but I cannot seem to find out which jumper! I want everything to be able to run at once. Anyone out there know for sure? or even better, has anyone done this? Electrical is all ready to go, just waiting on this jumper!! Brand New Sundance Altamar 880 series.
  13. Damn guys, dont just delete peoples posts. I wanted to read that. So what if he had something in his signature. We wanted new mods to get rid of the obscene spam posts by guests, not all this.
  14. The manual says nothing about running the blower. It says two pumps on high. It would be nice if If I run them on high with the heater and just forget about the blower as you said. Can any sundance owners with the 800 series or even better, the Altamar confirm if I can run both pumps on high without the blower and the heater? If not what about both pumps on low/medium?
  15. Well, the spa comes from Sundance as 50A (Optimal) since most people set it up with 50A service. The electrician came when no one was here and hooked it up with 50A since thats what the documentation said it was setup as. He did not know we wanted 60A or even that it was capable of taking 60A. It's quite a nice spa and I like the blower in the wet tests, also with the fregrance It would be easier to go to 60A now than it would later... But its still going to cost about $250.
