How to Setup Your Coldtub
First of all, congratulations! Being the owner of a coldtub is something to be proud of. Also welcome to the family.

- Your Coldtub will arrive in a wooden crate. You will want to have some type of dolly or a few strong bodies available to move the unit from where it is unloaded to where you plan to install it.
- Once near the installation location you will want to have a power drill and square head (Robertson) #2 Bit available to take the crate apart.

- Plug your tub into standard 110v outlet. Once tub is full and plugged in - Turn your jets on high via your control panel (Hit Once for Low, Twice for High). Turning the jets on helps mix the Dead Sea Salt and other solutions better. Also pour in all solutions near filter skimmer to increase circulation as well.

- Once the tub is at your desired location, fill tub with water from garden hose, attach fill filter to end of hose for easiest setup! Fill water to line on filter skimmer or till 3/4 of the skimmer is underwater.

- The first thing we want to look at/balance is the Alkalinity. 120-150 ppm is where you want to be. If the Alkalinity is off check charts on pages 6-8 on owners manual https://www.coldtub.com/wp-content/uploads/coldtub-OM-1.pdf to see how much Cold Water Balance to add (depending on model) to balance Alkalinity. *TA= Total Alkalinity. Turn on jets, add measured amount needed and wait 1 hour to test water again.
cold water balance
= increase alkalinity

- Next we are going to look at the PH. You want to be reading 7.2-7.6. If the PH is off check charts on pages 6-8 on owners manual https://www.coldtub.com/wp-content/uploads/coldtub-OM-1.pdf to see how much Cold Water Run Down(PH decreaser) or Cold Water Jump(PH increaser) to add (depending on model) to balance PH. Turn on jets, add measured amount needed and wait 1 hour to test water again. *PH Decreaser also decreases TA ensure TA is in the desired range 120-150 before decreasing pH.*
cold water Run down
= Decrease pH
cold water jump
= increase pH
