WINTERIZING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING YOUR HOT TUB TO PREVENT ANY DAMAGE TO THE HOT TUB’S COMPONENTS.
Turn off power to the spa at the circuit breaker before draining the hot tub. Do not turn power back on until your spa has been completely refilled
with water. There are certain precautions to keep in mind when draining your hot tub. In extremely cold weather conditions, the plumbing or the
equipment of an outdoor hot tub may freeze. On the other hand, in hot weather conditions, it is important to protect the hot tub’s interior from
exposition to direct sunlight for long periods of time.
CAUTION : Drain waste water may contain chemical residue and unsanitary contaminants wich could be a hazard to
health or the environment. Drain to specified sanitary sewer only.
INSTRUCTIONS
Lumi-O highly recommends using a professional to close your spa to prevent any damage due to improper winterizing.
TURN OFF (UNPLUG) POWER AT THE GFCI CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE DRAINING.
DRAINING :
