DRAINING AND WINTERIZING
DRAINING YOUR SPA
After a period of 3-4 months, detergent residues from bathing
suits and soap film will build up in your spa water. Once this
happens, your spa water will appear cloudy and should probably
be replaced.
• Turn power OFF at the breaker.
• Locate the drain valve (usually in the equipment area).
• Remove the safety cap and attach garden hose.
• Drain water to a convenient area. (Spa water may harm
grass or plants if sanitizer levels are high.)
• When water begins to flow out of the hose, open the air
relief valve located on filter lid (Hydro-Cyclonic Filtration)
or Air Bleeder Valve (Skim Filtration).
• Your spa will drain except for a small portion left in the foot
well. This can be removed with a sponge and pail.
• Once empty, clean as required.
• To finish, remove garden hose and attach safety cap.
WINTERIZING YOUR SPA
In many areas of the world the temperature may drop below 32°
F (0°C). We recommend the spa is always filled with water and
running at normal spa temperatures. By doing this you will
minimize the risk of freezing within your spa. If it is necessary to
leave your spa unattended for long periods of time during cold
weather conditions, you should drain your spa to avoid
accidental freezing caused by power outages.
Your local dealer can perform the following winterizing
procedures, if you are not completely comfortable with them.
• Ensure that you have fully drained the spa (Refer to the
DRAINING YOUR SPA section)
• After draining, your spa may still have water remaining in
the equipment and plumbing fittings. Disconnect the hand-
tightened union fittings going to and from the jet pumps.
Be careful not to lose the O-rings between the unions and
pump housing.
• Leave drain valve in the open position and safety cap off .
• To completely drain the plumbing lines, a wet/dry shop
vacuum can be used to draw out any remaining water. Place
the vacuum hose over the jet fittings in the spa as well as the
plumbing lines in the equipment area. You should also
disconnect the plug on the crystal clear inspection tube (if
installed)
•
Remove the filter cartridge and store in a warm, dry area.
•
Clean the spa shell and place spa cover on spa. Be sure to
lock the cover in place in case of high winds or rain.
WARNING: The instructions above should be followed
accordingly when winterizing your spa however they are
guidelines and potential freeze damage may still occur. All
freeze damage is the sole responsibility of the spa owner and
will not be covered by the warranty should it occur.
EMERGENCY SITUATIONS: To eliminate freezing in the event
of equipment failure, use a 100-watt light bulb or small heater via
extension cord and place it in the equipment area, keeping it
away from plumbing lines. This will help for a short period of
time until proper service can be rendered.
