In many areas of the country, the temperature drops below 32˚F (0°C). We recommend that you always have your spa
full of water and running at normal spa temperatures (80˚F to 100˚F, 26.7°C to 37.8°C). This will help reduce the risk of
freezing in your spa and your spa’s equipment.
Warning: If you find the need to drain your spa, be aware of the potential of freezing in your spas equipment
and plumbing. Even if the directions below are followed perfectly, there is no guarantee that your spa will
not suffer freeze damage. Freeze damage is not covered by your warranty.
Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining)
1.
Remove the filter baskets and filters.
2. Drain your spa completely as described in the
instructions above.
3.
Vacuum water from the spa’s main drain and from the
jets with a wet/dry vacuum.
4.
Open the bleeder valves on the pumps.
5. Disconnect the unions from both sides of all pumps.
6.
Blow any remaining water out of the jets and equipment
area with the wet/dry vacuum.
7.
When the spa has completely finished draining, close
the bleeder valves and re-connect the unions on all
pumps. Replace the filters and filter baskets.
8. Cover your spa with a good spa cover and an all-weather
tarp to ensure that neither rain nor snow enters the spa.
Cleaning and Replacing the Filter
Filtration is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure clean, clear water. It is far less expensive to fix water
clarity problems by filtering your spa than by using excessive amounts of chemicals, excessive filtration times, or by water
replacement.
See the section “Cleaning the Filter” on page 44 for more information.
Set the spa in SERENITY MODE before you remove the filter. SERENITY MODE pauses all spa operations for
service functions like cleaning or replacing the filter. See page 14 for instructions on using SERENITY MODE.
1.
Remove the filter by unscrewing it and pulling it up and out.
2.
Place the dirty filter into a bucket of water deep enough to cover the filter. Add 8 oz. of liquid filter cleaner to the bucket
of water.
Note:
It is a good idea to keep a spare filter to use in the spa while the dirty filter is being deep cleaned. This way, you
can rotate the filters and both will last longer.
3.
Soak the filter for a minimum of 24 hours.
4. Spray the filter with a water hose. Spray each pleat carefully.
5.
Reinstall the filter. Do not overtighten.
Spa Cover and Locking System Installation
Important! Keep the spa covered when not in use!
• Covered spas will use less electricity in maintaining your
set temperature.
•
Covering your spa will protect your spa’s finish from the
sun’s ultraviolet rays.
• You are required to keep the spa covered to maintain
warranty coverage.
• Covering your spa helps prevent children from drowning
in the spa.
In addition, while the spa cover is rigid, it is not designed to
support any weight. Therefore, as a safety precaution and to
preserve the life of your cover, you must not sit, stand, or lie
on it, nor should you place objects of any kind on top of it.
