MAINTENANCE 

 

 

Automatic Filtration/Maintenance 

If you plan to be away, minimum water quality will be maintained by running the filter system. 

 

If you will be away for an extended period, however, we recommend that you drain the spa (following the procedure 

described under Winterizing on this page), as long periods without maintenance of water quality could be detrimental 

to the spa. 

 

Another means of maintaining minimum water quality while away for less than two weeks is to follow the procedure 

outlined for winterizing your spa in a warm climate.  (Refer to Winterizing.) 

 

NOTE: We do not recommend using this procedure if you are absent during the summer, when algae buildup 

is most likely. 

 

Always keep your spa covered when not in use to reduce heat loss and evaporation and to prevent debris from 

falling in. 

 

 

 

Winterizing 

In a climate where winter temperatures are below 

freezing,  follow  this  procedure when  the  spa  will 

NOT be used: 
1.  Turn OFF power to the unit at the main electric panel. 

 

2.  Drain the spa completely by attaching a garden hose 

to the drain valve on the suction plumbing.  Then 

remove the hose and leave the drain valve open to 

completely drain the spa. 

 

3.  Remove, clean and store the filter cartridges, in a dry 

location. 

 

4.  Keep water and debris out by covering with a spa 

cover. 

 

Before using the spa again, review the Operating 

Instructions. 

 

NOTE:  In a warm climate where there are occasional 

freezing temperatures, your spa is  automatically 

protected against freezing.  Whenever water tem- 

perature falls below 40°F, the pump will activate to 

circulate water until the temperature reaches 45°F

To maintain water quality adjust temperature setpoint to 

the minimum setting (80°F), and select ECONOMY 

mode. 

 

 

 

Factory Installed Redwood Skirt 

Your spa is supplied with a factory-installed red- 

wood skirt which completely surrounds the spa. The 

door can be opened for maintenance. 

 

The skirt is made of kiln-dried redwood and can be 

left natural to weather, or you may choose to apply a 

stain or clear finish.  Consult  your local paint dealer for 

the appropriate product. 

 

NOTE:  We recommend a water based material.  Oil 

or solvent based finishing materials will degrade the 

skirt backing material. 

 

If it becomes necessary to remove one or more of 

the skirt panels for major service access, simply remove 

the screws with which the section is secured. 

 

To detach any of the panels, first remove all screws 

from the panel being detached. 

 

The panels can be reattached to the spa by revers- 

ing the above procedure. 

 

NOTE:  When you remove the skirt, you will notice 

the plastic covered foam insulated batts.  These 

batts are designed to be removed when service is 

required  and  reinstalled  when  service  has  been 

completed.
