Filling Your Swim spa
Now it's time to fill your swim spa with water. Do not turn on
the electricity yet until the swim spa is completely filled. To
properly fill your swim spa :
1. Make sure that the filters (in the filtration canister) are
gently screwed into place. Turn them clockwise until
they stop being careful not to over-tighten them (this
avoids cracking the filter).
2. Connect a standard garden hose to a faucet with
regular cold tap water (not softened water or hot water).
Figure 20 – Filtration Canister
Caution: The water from your hot water tank should not be used to fill the
swim spa.
3. Put the pre-filter (if equipped
*
) on the other end of the hose, point the pre-
filter into a suitable drain, turn on the water, and allow any sediment to be
flushed down the drain. Once the water stream runs clear, turn off the hose.
4. Put the pre-filter (if equipped) into the filtration canister and turn on the hose.
5.
Fill slowly . If too much water pressure is used, foaming water can force air
into the pipes and cause startup problems.
Important: To assure that the pump is properly primed, fill the swim spa
through the filter area only .
6. Fill the swim spa until the water level is about 1” above all jets (or about ½”
below the pillow). Do not over fill.
Note : Every person entering a swim spa displaces a given volume of water,
so adjust water level to the number of people regularly using the swim
spa. Turn off the hose and check again for any small leaks.

Starting the Hydraulic System
Caution: Turn off all power to the swim spa at the main breaker panel.
1. Check the sight glass located on the side of the tank. A small amount of
fluid is shipped in the tank from the factory and should be visible in the
sight glass.
2. Remove the fill cap lid located on the top of the tank. Pour fluid in the
tank until the sight glass is completely filled. (NOTE: USE ONLY THE
FLUID PROVIDED BY PREMIUM LEISURE). Fluid will be blue. Once
full, tighten the fill cap.
