Tadpole Hot Tub Owner’s Manual — January 24, 2003
Steps to Drain Your hot tub (Using the Optional Pow-
erDrain™ w/ 50’ of Drain Hose):
*Items Needed:
1 or 2 JetZone dividers
1. Place the hot tub into standby mode through the
control panel.
2. Remove the 1st JetPak on the left side of the hot tub,
nearest the filter assembly.
3. Remove the filter(s) from the filter housing unit.
4. Install the power drain unit on the water output side
of the 2" plumbing entering the 1st JetPak recess (this
will be the fitting closest to the control panel).
5. Unroll the drain hose and direct where the output of
the water will go.
6. Start “Jets” button on low speed (water output vol-
ume can be controlled by using the gate valve sup-
plied).
7. Place the JetZone divider(s) into the filter housing
blocking off the flow at the bottom of the filter. This
will allow the hot tub to drain down to the level of the
intake suction.
8. The hot tub water will now drain out of the tub in
about 5 to 9 minutes at full volume on low speed.
9. After water is drained, place in standby mode and
reverse the above procedure.
Steps To Refill Your hot tub:
1. Remove garden hose from Drain Hose and replace
Drain Hose Cap.
2. Reattach door to Equipment Compartment.
3. Refill hot tub with tap water. Fill the hot tub to any
point between the two Water Level Indentation marks
located on the face plate of the filter assembly. The
depth range of these marks is 6-7½” down from top of
the hot tub.
Note 1:
To avoid air pockets in the pumps and in the
main plumbing intake, it is recommended that the hot
tub be refilled through the filter assembly.
Note 2:
The higher the water level, the fewer hot tub
occupants it will take to cause the water to overflow the
top of the spa.
Note 3:
Do not fill your hot tub with soft water unless
the mineral content is raised immediately.
4. Restore electrical power supply.
5. See "Starting Your Hot Tub with New Water"
under "Water Chemistry" in this Owner's Manual.
Using the hot tub in these conditions could result in
a skin rash or other irritation.
For assistance in handling hot tub water
chemistry problems, consult your authorized
Tadpole Portable Hot Tub Dealer or another
service center capable of performing a
Computerized Water Analysis.
