SCF Magnum Features

And specifications

Size

92x92x38

Number of seats

6seats  Lounge and five comfortable seats.

Jet Pump #1 HP

The SCF has the Ultimate pump.

Read more about it below in the paragraph on the lower right.

6.7 HP (8 Brake HP)

230/240 V19.0 Amps on high 2 speed with sub contactor for high speed.

56 frame Franklin/ solid state switching (no starting contacts) Twin axial fan cooling on motor.

This is a no holds barred type of spa and pump.

Pump #2: HP

Most spas use a single speed on jet pump #2. For full benefit of the jets a spa needs two speeds on the second pump as well.


6.7 HP (8 Brake HP)

230/240 V19.0 Amps on high 2 speed with sub contactor for high speed.

56 frame Franklin/ solid state switching (no starting contacts) Twin axial fans cooling on motor. Class F insulation on the motors. Heavy duty bearings.

This is a no holds barred type of spa and pump.

Pump # 3

In addition to the SCF the Magnum has another 6 HP Single Speed Jet pump.
6 HP (7.5 PBHP)

230/240 V16.0 Amps on high with sub contactor for high speed.
56 frame Franklin/ solid state switching (no starting contacts) Twin axial fans cooling on motor. Class F insulation on the motors. Heavy duty bearings.

This is a no holds barred type of spa and pump.

Pump #4: HP

The SCF has the best filtering and ozone system in the industry.

The 24 Hour circulation pump gives 24 hours of warm thermal barrier insulation inside the cabinet. Making the 2003 SCF the most thermally insulated spa in the industry with this level of power. Because of the super efficiency of DAIT Level 4 we put in programmable circulation times on this pump for reduction of use in summer.

Haven Power Jet pump with low pressure high volume 24 hour filter, heat, ozone pump. 1.3 Amps 30 GPM 1/8 HP average flow low speed. This allows us to free up the jet pumps from the filtering to give the most powerful flow in the industry to the water jets. The filtering in this spa is the best there is in the industry. Over 43,200 gallons of turnover a dayaverage. Awesome!
New this year our circulation pump has an added feature, a second speed.  I have been wanting to add this to our high end spas for years.  It is a Power Jet in one of the seats. With the second speed we put a full 1.5 HP into a Power Jet that give powerful low to mid back massage.

Air Pump HP
(Therapy Pump # 5)

1.5HP 6 amps 240 Volt (not brake HP)

We set it to 2 speeds,  I much prefer the 2 speeds.

Air injectors

The SCF has larger and more air injectors as well as the turbo air. The 2HP air pump gives much more air pressure to work with on the SCF.

20 each 9 hole injectors

These give a burst of air into the water, and give a real massage that pulsates up your back. We place air injectors on the back of the seats for this reason.

Manifold system

5 separate manifolds.  1/Power jet system, 2/ Jet pump one 3/ Jet pump 2 lounger. 4/ Jet pump two / Jet pump 4 has dual Master masssage.

Total number of water and air jets

73

Total Number of Water therapy jets

49

(4 each filtering ozone jets)

Large rotating jets

Not only are the SCF jets more they each have much more intensity off water flow. MUCH MORE!

26 each large Storm jets

(Cyclone style)

Interchangeable with three different jet bodies included for your choice of massage.

 

Medium Adjustable

Regular jets 6

Small adjustable jets

 4 hip jets in lounge and captains chair.

Mini Jets

 8 ea.

Above water Neck and shoulder jets.

The collars on the SCF contain the spray out much better than most of the above water jet systems.

4 small adjustable with single valve shut off on all four. (optional second neck blaster seat with 2 neck blasters in the 6 jet seat)

If you want you can have two "collars with up to 8 neck and shoulder jets. I prefer the single collar or the single collar with the twin neck blasters in the six jet seat.

Turbo Air


1.5 HP Premium blower gives more air pressure to the water jets.  This turbo charge of the water jets feels like the water pumps have a third speed at a much higher horsepower.  It broadens the spray and adds considerble force to the therapy. In short: it is wonderful for your body.

Cabinet

We use a framed in bottom to give strength and to allow moisture to not accumulate on any wood.


2x4 frames. The bottom has a full framed in structure pressure treated. The top rail (under the lip is 2x4) the vertical frames are 2x4 as well. 2x4 vertical frames. Bottom has ABS sheeting to seal it. (Optional plastic feet for high rain areas.)

Cabinet Skirt

(I still like redwood the best.)

Standard is clear redwood 1/2 half inch base tongue n groove.

Optional Permawood Synthetic. 

Filter size and type

100 Sq. Ft. Suction side on 24 hour circulation pump.

Ozone system

Ozone contact chamber with ozone saturation. Powerful, Corona Discharge ozonator is standard with the SCF

Insulation System

The Haven DAIT is the best thermal insulation for spas today. 

Full Thermally Sealed with DAIT level 5. Automatically adjust insulation to the conditions inside and outside of the spa.
Higher rated thermal fan for better cooling in summer mode.

DAIT

Shell and form

Acrylic / Vinylseter bonding and fiberglass hand rolled is the best shell made today.

Acrylic / Vinylester Resin / Fiberglass.

Lip over design

Electronic Controls

Gecko/HydroQuip

High Level with high current switches. controls system.

Unbelievable features and reliability.

Second topside control

Standard by the Captains chair.

Hand rails

Two acrylic bars installed into the shell. These can be lit with LED lights.

Lighting

Standard is single LED lighting.

Heater Type and power rating.

4 Kilowatt flow through.

Tefel coated element with 3 year "no fault" warranty.

Foot Jets

You have to stretch a bit to reach them from the opposite chair, but the two in the center are my favorite foot jets of all time.

Lounge also has foot jets.

Two large Storm jets in the foot well.
AND
The amazing Twin 14 Jet opening 100 gallons per minute flow per jet, Master Massage jets that gives full pressure point foot massage and fantastic leg jet therapy. We plumb it to the manufacturers flow rates.

Leg jets

8 water and four air jets in the legs of the lounge.  This is a great combination with both Four air jets and eight water jets with turbo air.

TV VCR or TV with DVD

Optional 17.1 inch high resolution, limo style TV with remote.

Stereo system

Optional Four Speaker Stereo CD player AM./FM marine grade 6x9 20 HZ to 20,000 HZ speaker system and optional sub woofer.

All specifications subject to change as we reifine the spa and make improvements.

There is no filtering system "better" than 100 Sq Ft. and 43,000 gallons standard. It can be set to filter up to 43,200 gallons per day.
 It is now about four times the amount of filtering needed in a COMMERCIAL spa. We do it that way as part of the wholistic design. While this amazing pump is filtering and ozonating, it is also creating a 100% thermal warm air barrier. So, not only is it the most filtering; it creates the most energy efficient spa of this type in existence.  We have the most energy efficient design for cold weather.

When you talk about engineering, it is a general statement of superiority and it better be true. The statement was about the "filtering system", not about the spa. We chose this filtering system for our highest end products, because someone who wants the best is going to get the best. Other spas can have this system, but I have not seen it on any spa except the Super Custom models from us. That is because of how much it costs.

The pump is called the WaterWay Executive "Ultimate" System as it is listed in their catalog. It is their name for this pump, not mine. Try to find another pump in production that has a 56 frame 19 amp two speed, with Class "F" insulation, double shaft seal protection, solid state starting, and double fan cooling from both ends of the motor!  The motor blows towards the wet end so that in 10 years if the seal leaks, the air blowing will stop ground faults. It has heavy duty sealed bearings as well.

Here are the benefits listed in the catalog, and all are exactly true, based on my personal experience in the electrical and electronics fields. It is not just one of the most expensive pumps around, it has value as most Water Way products do.

Benefits:

--Provides constant air flow over the body of the motor for cooler running and better performance.

--Time proven solid state switch is guaranteed to provide long life, quiet operation and millions of trouble free starts.

--Energy efficient design on high speed & solid state start-up on low speed eliminates the mechanical switch and reduces noise level.

--Features patented ball lock bearing technology for longer life and quiet operation.

This is the best spa pump in current production. It has an excellent pressure to flow curve, allowing full use of the same pump at different pressures and volumes. This gives us the opportunity to run 90GPM jets and 19 to 13 GPM jets on the same pump at different pressures, by designing the positioning on the manifolds.

The control system from HQ is  really strong. Go look in the catalog. There is not a control system that does all that it does. I can still think of a few things I want to add to it, but that is because customers keep asking for more features. This year we have made the circulation pump owner adjustable for duration.  This is a refinement on the control to allow more or less filtering as the use of the spa indicates.

Like I have said many times the only control system that will be better is the one I have designed. It runs with solid state relays. It takes up twice the space in the control area, because of all the heat sinking on the 40 amp solid state relays. Each of those relays cost about $65.

While the rest of the spa makers are trying to figure out how to survive off gimmicks and building spas as cheaply as possible, we are moving in the other direction into the super luxury area and super reliability area.  Our spas are work horses, strong and steady.

If you read the comments from our spa owners, you will see a common thread of reliability in their letters.
