Fill Up and Start Instructions

 

 

The following procedures should be followed on initial startup and whenever the hot tub is drained for 
routine maintenance.  

 

FILLING THE HOT TUB WITH WATER 

 

1.

 

Clear all the debris from your hot tub. 

2.

 

Use a garden hose to fill your hot tub with water. 

NOTE: do not use home water heater or 

softened water. 

3.

 

As the water level rises, check inside the equipment compartment for water leaks.  It may be 
necessary to tighten unions and/or fittings that may have loosened during delivery.  There is no 
need to call for service; this can easily be done by you.  If assistance is required, your dealer or 
service organization may charge a small fee.

 

4.

 

Under normal circumstances keep the water level at the texture level mark, where the rough 
texture meets the smooth texture on the inside of the spa, at all times.  Keep in mind that every 
person who enters the spa will create a certain amount of water displacement, depending on their 
size and weight—as a result you may need to reduce the amount of water you normally have in the 
tub, so as to prevent the water from hitting your topside control or flowing over the top of the hot 
tub. All jets must be under water at all times. 

 

 

APPLYING POWER 

Please review the following procedures and power-up events before applying voltage to the Power 
System: 

STEP I 

1.

 

Check the voltage at the main power panel to be sure you have the correct voltage for the Power 
System being used.  Also, be sure the voltage is  or – 10% of the mean voltage.  For 120 
VAC it should be between 108 VAC and 132 VAC.  For 240 VAC it should be between 216 VAC 
and 264 VAC. 

2.

 

Test and reset the GFCI.  If it does not operate properly, do not apply voltage to the Power System 
until the problem has been corrected. 

3.

 

Fill the hot tub to its correct operating level.  Be sure to open all jets in the plumbing system before 
filling to allow as much air as possible to escape from the plumbing and the Power System during 
the filling process. 

 

STEP II 

Apply power by turning on your dedicated GFCI circuit breaker (120 VAC or 220 VAC).  Your hot 
tub has been specifically designed so by simply applying power, it will automatically heat to the 
factory default temperature of 100

º 

F (37º C).  

 
1.

 

Press the Jets pad on the topside control panel to activate the spa.  Rotate the air control valves to 
“Max” and observe the increased jet action.   

NOTE: Let the high-speed pump run for 10 minutes. This helps purge the air from the water lines.

 

2.

 

While the pump is running, check again for water leaks at the drain spigot, unions, or fittings in the 
equipment compartment.  If water is leaking from one of these areas, there is no need to call for 
service.  Simply tighten the fitting.  If assistance is required, your dealer or service organization 
may charge a small fee. 

3.

 

After checking your spa for leaks it is now time to adjust your preferred temperatures and turn off 
the high-speed pump.
