SARASOTA INSTRUCTIONS 

 

The Sarasota is designed to seat two adults. The 15 hydrotherapy jets can be regulated to provide a 
relaxing massage to sooth away stress and the air control valve can be turned to adjust the strength 
of the water massage. The Sarasota holds approximately 222 gallons of water and offers an 
automatic, programmable heating (94° to 104°) and filtration system. 
 
The guidelines below explain how to properly use the Sarasota. Follow these guidelines to maintain 
the spa for your long-term vacation at home.
 

Plugging in the Sarasota

 

 

 

11

 

Make sure the cut-off valves to the pump 
are open

 and fill the spa with water. Plug in the 

power cord and turn the spa on. 

Note:

 The first 

time the power cord is plugged in, the spa will 
turn on automatically. 
 
 

 
Plug the power cord directly into a dedicated, 
grounded circuit capable of carrying 20 or more 
amps. No other appliances should be on the 
same circuit. Immediately replace the power 
cord is it becomes damaged. 

 

 
The power cord is equipped with a Ground 
Fault Circuit Interrupter located at the end of 
the power cord. You always should test the 
GFCI before using the Sarasota. 
 
First, press the pump button on the console to 
turn on the Sarasota. Second, press the GFCI 
“test” button. The Sarasota should turn off. 
Third, press the GFCI “reset” button. The  
 
Sarasota should resume normal operation. If 
the Sarasota continues to run after the “test” 
button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged. Do 
not use the Sarasota until a qualified electrician 
repairs the GFCI.

 

 

 
 
Starting the Sarasota 

Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air 
control on the console to the lowest setting (see console diagram). The pumping unit will heat the 
water as it pumps. Place the cover tightly on the Sarasota. The water will heat at approximately 3.4° 
per hour with the cover on. If you are using the spa indoors and the room temperature is maintained 
at 70°F, it will take approximately eight hours for the water to reach the set temperature. See the 
console diagram for help setting the temperature.
