GLOSSARY OF TERMS
AIR CONTROL VALVE:
Mounted generally on the lip of the spa, it in-
duces warm air from the equipment enclosure into the jet stream through
venturi action.
WATER DIVERTER VALVE:
The large diverter is used to divert water to
various seats in the spa.
ON/OFF DIVERTER VALVE:
The smaller diverter is used to control
water flow and to turn on/off the neck jets and/or waterfalls.
FILTER AIR RELIEF VALVE:
Located on top of dome filter lid. Used to
release air from the filter.
SKIMMER BLEEDER VALVE:
Located in the skimmer area, needs to
be loosened while filling the spa. This will help eliminate air from being
trapped in the spa equipment.
OZONATOR:
Available as an option. The ozonator produces natural
ozone through the Corona Discharge process. Continuous use of an
ozonator can dramatically reduce sanitizer consumption.
CONTROL BOX (Pack):
Basically the “heart” of the spa. Power is dis-
tributed to any/all functions of the spa: pumps, ozonator, LED lighting,
heater element, etc.
CONTROL PANEL:
Mounted on the top lip of the spa and controls the
functions of the spa.
DRAIN VALVE:
Used in draining of the spa. Normally located in the
equipment area.
EQUIPMENT ENCLOSURE:
An enclosure that houses the control box,
pump(s) and other electrical components.
FILTER:
The filter cleans the spa by passing water through a filter car-
tridge where debris and impurities are removed. Top load filter means
the filter cartridge is accessible through the top of the spa. Front access
skimmer means cartridge is accessed through door of skimmer.
FLOOR DRAIN:
The floor drain is covered by a grate-type cover and is
utilized when draining the spa. It also acts as the return for the ozonator.
You will see bubbles emitted from this drain, which is the result of water
mixing with the ozone output.
GATE VALVES:
Red with a grey handle is located at the inlet and outlet
of the pumping system. Used while servicing the spa equipment, the
valves open or close the water flow to the equipment. To remain open
for normal use, turn fully counterclockwise.
KNIFE VALVES:
A white “T”-handled valve, same functions as Gate
valve (see above), except to open them you pull up on handle.
