To drain the hydrotherapy spa, follow the steps below:
1. Using the console, adjust the temperature to the
lowest setting.
2. Shut off the power to the spa, at the circuit breaker
or GFCI.
3. Remove the access panel from the spa (see
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE ACCESS
PANEL on page 14).
4. Pull the hose out and hold it above the waterline.
Remove the cap, open the valve knob, and attach
a garden hose to the drain hose. Lower the hose
and drain the spa.
5. When the spa is empty, remove the garden hose,
close the valve knob, re-attach the cap, and return
the drain hose inside the spa.
6. Re-attach the access panel.
7. Refill the spa and treat the water with chemicals
(see pages 10 and 13).
DRAINING THE PUMP
After the hydrotherapy spa is drained, the jet pump
should also be drained if the spa will be stored for
more than thirty days or if it may be exposed to freez-
ing temperatures.
Turn off the power to
the spa. To drain the jet
pump, remove the
access panel from the
spa unit (see ATTACH-
ING AND REMOVING
THE ACCESS PANEL
on page 14). Locate
the jet pump inside the
spa. Loosen the indi-
cated collar on the
pump.
WINTER USE AND CARE
The hydrotherapy spa is designed for year-round use.
If you decide to store the spa for the winter, store it in
a warm, dry location. Follow the steps below to winter-
ize the spa.
1. Make sure the power to the spa is turned off.
2. Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE HYDROTHER-
APY SPA on the previous page and this page).
3. Remove all remaining water from the spa shell. Dry
the spa shell with towels.
4. Set the air controls to the lowest setting. Use a
wet/dry vacuum to pull any remaining water from
the system. To do this, place the vacuum nozzle
over each jet, starting with the highest jet and fin-
ishing with the lowest jet.
5. Set the air controls to the highest setting and
repeat step 4.
6. Drain the pump (see DRAINING THE PUMP on
this page). Once the water is drained from the
pump, place the vacuum nozzle over the drainage
hole in the pump and vacuum any additional water
from the pump. Note: For additional protection,
remove the pump from the spa and store it in a
climate-controlled room.
7. Clean the spa shell (see page 13).
8. Clean the filter (see page 16).
9. Shut the power off at the breaker. Label the
breaker in such a way that the breaker will not
be turned on accidentally.
10. Re-attach the access panel and the spa cover.
REPLACING THE LIGHT BULB
If the underwater light burns out, you will need to
remove the access panel to replace it (see ATTACHING
AND REMOVING THE ACCESS PANEL on page 14).
Make sure the spa power is turned off. Next, locate the
light housing. Turn the light housing counterclockwise
and remove it from the spa shell.
To replace the light bulb, pull the old light bulb out of
the housing and insert a new light bulb. Re-attach the
light housing to the spa shell. Re-attach the access
panel to the spa.
