MOST COMMONLY ASKED VOYAGER SPA QUESTIONS
Q, How long does the
liner last?
A, The warranty is 1
year but the life, if used as intended and the water chemistry is kept up, 15 to 20 years
can be expected.
Q, If I put a hole
in it can it be fixed?
A, Yes, we have
simple mender kits that are also available at your local pool supply store. The liner
vinyl is a heavier gauge then that found on your common above ground or in-ground
vinyl-liner pool. It also has an anti-fungal agent in it to help prevent mold and algae
growth.
Q, How many people
does it take to put together and how long?
A, The first time you
set the Voyager up, it will take you 20-30 minutes. Mostly one person, better two people
for positioning the jet and equipment modular and for 5 minutes you will need three or
more for the liner and installing the retaining bands. The liner is "pre
shrunk." This is to prevent wrinkles and to assure the proper fit later. If the liner
is cold and stiff, try and warm it up in the sun, this will make it more elastic.
Q, After I set it
up can it be moved?
A, As easy as it was
to set up, the Voyager can be taken apart. This is one of its many great features,
truly "transportable" "take it with you" outdoors in the summer
indoors in the winter, up to the ski house then down to the beach house.
Q, How much water
does it hold and what is its size?
A, The average fill,
leaving 4-6 inches free at the top (remember when people hop in they will add volume) is
about 400 gallons. The Total fill is about 500 gallons. The Voyager is 6 feet in diameter
and 34 inches deep, which makes it a big roomy spa.
Q, How many people
can it hold?
A, 5 adults in
comfort.
Q, Do I need any
special wire?
A, No, a standard 15
amp outlet is all that is needed. This circuit MUST be able to deliver the full
"draw" to the unit. If other appliances are on this circuit you will need to
unplug them. The Voyager power pack, comes with a cord mounted ground-fault circuit
interrupter, for your safety and protection. All you have to do is plug it in. Please, do
not run the Voyager with an extension cord. If your outlet is on a long run from your
service panel, you may need to have an electrician install a 20 amp dedicated line for the
Voyager.
Q, How about the
water, is the unit connected to the house plumbing and hot water heater?
A, No, you fill
it with a garden hose. The power pack contains its own electric heater that warms
the water. Like your house hot water heater, there is an element and a tank, here the
"tank" is the spa.
Q, Do I drain the
Voyager like my bathtub, every time I use it?
A, No, the Voyager is
like a mini swimming pool, you maintain or treat the water like a pool but with much less
chemicals. We explain the water routine to you in our instruction book. One of the
beauties and economies of the Voyager is that you "save" the water and heat for
the next use. Once the heater has warmed the water it only works to maintain your desired
temperature, like a trickle charger tops off a battery so the spa is always filled and
ready for use. We suggest that you change the water once every 2-3 months.
Q, Does it come
with a cover to keep the heat in and the dirt out?
A, Yes, a
light-weight, inflatable cover that also has 3 safety strap locks to prevent child entry
and a strong wind from lifting it off. A foot pump is also included that can be used on
other inflatable items.
