1. Check Barrel Unions are tight
Barrels unions are the connections
between the pumps and heater and the
plumbing of the spa. If they become loose,
this can cause water loss. It is important
to check the tightness of these unions
periodically, and especially when spa is first
delivered. The unions are designed to be
retightened by hand. Rotate the locking
nut clockwise to tighten.
NOTE:
If you see water escaping
from beneath your spa, the barrel
unions should be the first thing
you check.

UNIONS ARE NOT COVERED BY

2. Check valves are open
T-handled valves enable the water fiow
to be closed to allow removal of spa
equipment for servicing without the
need to empty the spa water.
The T handles must be pulled UP to be
OPEN and allow water fiow, and they
should be secured open with clips.

4. Check all jets are open
Water fiow to most jets can be turned on or off by rotating the jet face clockwise
(on) or anti-clockwise (off). Check to ensure all jets are open before filling with water.
5. Fill water to correct level in spa
The spa should be filled until the water level is at least 50mm above the skimmer.
NOTE: Always remember to remove the filters and fill spa through filter pipes
