Be sure all pump and heater unions are secure. Each pump has 2 unions and the heater has

spa. Check that all slice valves are open, in the up position. The slice valves may become
closed during transportation of the swim spa.

4.
Fill the swim spa to the “minimum safe water level” sticker.
5.
Turn on power to the swim spa. If your spa is equipped with two electrical supplies, make
sure that they are both turned on. The swim spa will go through its priming mode. This lasts
approximately 5 minutes. The purpose of the priming mode is to help insure that the jet
pumps have been primed with water and are ready to operate. It may be necessary in some
instances to bleed air from the jet pumps in your swim spa, if after the priming mode the
swim spa pumps run but do not move water the pump may have an air lock.
Due to the nature of water flow and hydro-therapy pumps, please be advised that air locking
of pumps may occur. Master Spas, Inc. has taken measures to reduce the possibility of this,
but it still may occur, especially after filling the swim spa. This is not a service covered by the
warranty and service charges may apply.
To relieve an airlock situation, loosen the pump union on the discharge of the pump. This
pump union is indicated by an arrow in the picture below. Water should leak out of the
union once the air has been removed. Tighten the union and test the pump for proper opera-
tion. Repeat this process if needed.
6.
Be sure the jets in your Swim spa are open. See 41 page for removal instructions.
7.
Adjust water chemistry according to the instructions provided in the Swim Spa “Water quality
Maintenance” Section.
8.
Your swim spa water will heat approximately 1° - 2° per hour, on average. Times may vary.
