SPA MAINTENANCE
Your spa is manufactured with the highest quality and most durable materials available.
A spa care and maintenance program is recommended to increase your comfort,
maintain the spa’s reliability and protect your investment.
1) DRAINING YOUR SPA
Detergent residues from bathing suits as well as soap film from your body may gradually
accumulate in the water. Foam inhibitors will suppress the foam but will not remove
the soap from the water. Eventually, the soap build-up in the water will concentrate
enough to leave an unclean feeling on the user’s skin, cause sudsing, and make the water
impossible to clarify. Depending on the amount of soap input, the spa water should last
between two and three months.
To Drain Your Spa:
A. Unplug Spa.
B. Attach a garden hose to the hose bib located equipment area, and route the outlet of
the hose to an appropriate draining area. The spa will empty by gravity. Siphon or
scoop out the balance of the water.
IMPORTANT:
Spa water with a
high sanitizer level
may harm plants and grass. If you
are draining your spa for the winter, be sure to fully drain water from the pipes by
disconnecting the two unions. Drain the water pumps by removing the pump plug.
Then reinstall the valves and pump plugs.
C. Remove the filter and clean as required.
D. Inspect the spa shell and clean as required.
E. Refill the spa BEFORE restoring power to it.
2) WINTERIZING YOUR SPA
Your spa has been designed and engineered for year-round use in any climate.
A. If the spa will not be used, drain it completely following the instructions on”DRAINING
THE SPA.”
B. If you intend to use the spa during the winter, keep the spa warm and set the thermo-
stat to the temperature you wish to maintain. The spa will automatically come on and
display
“ICE”
whenever the water temperature falls to 50º F and will continue to run
until the water temperature comes up to 60º F. Note that accidental freezing could
result due to prolonged power failures.
