GLOSSARY OF SWIM SPA TERMINOLOGY
9. PERSONAL REMOTE CONTROL
(if equipped)
Select swim spa models may have an additional remote which allows the user to control the
jet therapy while remaining in the seat (if applicable). By pressing the control one time, you
will activate the pump. Press again for high speed and again to turn it off.
10. ACCESS PANELS
These are the skirt panels located
around all four sides of the swim spa.
All of the skirt panels are removable
should service be required. Master Spas
recommends at least 3 feet of access be
provided around the swim spa.

11. EQUIPMENT ACCESS PANEL
This is the skirt panel located below the Topside Control Panel or behind access panel “A”.
This area houses the majority of components responsible for the spas operation. These com-
ponents include the pumps, heater, swim spa control system, ozonator (if equipped), and LED
light system (if equipped). Pump and equipment placement may vary by model.
12. FILTER LID
This lid fits over the filter area and weir gate to cover the filters. Remove filter lid to access
filters for maintenance.
13. WEIR GATE
The weir gate is the horizontal door located in front of the filters that helps keep debris
trapped in the filter area
14. SWIM SPA CONTROL SYSTEM
This houses the wiring and electrical components necessary to operate the swim spa.
15. SWIM SPA HEATER
This is an electric heater housed in a stainless steel tube. It is thermostatically controlled and
equipped with high-limit temperature safety shut-off sensors.
16. SLICE VALVES
These valves are used by service personnel to shut off water to the
heating system (heater and pump plumbed to the heater) so that
the swim spa water does not need to be drained if the swim spa
requires service to the heating system (varies by model).
NOTE:
Slice valves must be completely open during normal operations.
17. MAIN THERAPY PUMP
This produces water flow through the main jets in the swim spa. The first pump may be oper-
ated on two speeds (varies by model). Low speed (if applicable) will produce efficient water
circulation during filtration, heating of the swim spa water, and gentle jet action. High speed
provides maximum jet action. The main pump is controlled by the “Jets” or “Jets I” button on
the Topside Control Panel.
