You may need to renew the water in your tub every 3-5 months, depending upon the 
water condition.

Read this before draining

your hot tub.

To prevent damage to the hot tub’s components, turn off power to 
the spa at the disconnect before draining the hot tub.  Do not turn 
power back on until your spa has been re

fi

 lled with water.

There are certain precautions to keep in mind when draining your 

hot tub.  If it is extremely cold, and the hot tub is outdoors, freezing could occur in the 
plumbing or the equipment.  On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do not leave the hot 
tub’s surface exposed to direct sunlight for long periods.  Cracking and/or fading may 
occur.

DRAINING YOUR SPA

- Turn power off at the breaker
- Your spa is equipped with a 98% main drain. (see image below)
- Remove the safety cap on the main drain (located on the outside of the cabinet in the 
front right corner) 

Screw in the drain adapter to drain the water

You may also choose to attach you garden hose to the adapter to run the water into a 

desired area

Any water left in the hot tub can be taken out using a wet vac or bucket

After your hot tub is empty, clean the shell and 

fi

 lter cartridge.
