15.2 Draining and Refilling
About every 3 to 6 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The
frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of
use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc.
You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing
and/or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water even
though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper
parameters.
CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING:
To prevent dam-
age to the spas components, turn off power to the spa at the circuit
breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until your
spa has been refilled.
CAUTION:
There are certain precautions to keep in mind when
draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is out-
doors, freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment (see
“WINTERIZING,” page 81). On the other hand, if it is hot out-
doors, do not leave the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.
A.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps (standard drain):
1. Turn off power to spa at breaker.
2. Locate the drain valve located on the front left
corner on the black plastic pan. Hold the
larger (rear) drain valve body to prevent it
from turning, then loosen and remove the
front cap to expose the underlying male hose
threads.
3. Attach a garden hose to the exposed threads.
4. Gently rotate the larger (rear) valve body
1/3 turn counterclockwise to unlock the drain
valve.
5. Pull the larger (rear) body outward as shown
to open drain.
6. After the spa drains, perform steps 2-5 in
reverse order to close the drain prior to refilling
spa.
After refilling, turn on power to the spa and follow
the steps listed under “Spa Fill Up Procedures” (page 18). Always fill
your spa through both filter buckets.
