GLOSSARY OF SPA TERMINOLOGY
11
1. DRAINING YOUR SPA. The drain is located behind the
front panel on the far right side. You can access the drain
by unscrewing the corner screws and removing the corner
panel. Grasp the drain cap, and pull the assembly out all
the way. Unscrew the cap, and push the assembly back in
half way to start the flow of water. Attach a garden hose,
if desired. Draining times may vary by model using the
external hose bib. A sump pump may also be used to
drain the spa quickly. NOTE: When pushing or pulling the
assembly in or out, water will drip from the drain during
the transition. This is normal.
2. JETS 1 PUMP. This pump produces water flow through the main jets in the
spa. This pump may be operated on two speeds. The low speed will produce
efficient water circulation and gentle jet action. High speed should be used
for maximum jet action. In spas not equipped with a 24 hour circulation
pump, this pump also moves water for the heat and filtration cycles.
3. JETS 2 PUMP. (If so equipped) This produces water flow through the
designated jets and has only one speed.
4. JETS 3 PUMP. (If so equipped) This produces water flow though the
designated jets and has one speed.
5. CIRCULATION PUMP. (If so equipped) This pump runs 24 hours a day and
moves water for heating and filtration. Spas equipped with this pump do not
have filtration cycles as they are not necessary in this configuration.
6. JET DIVERTER VALVE. Located on the topside of the spa, this valve physically
diverts the flow of water from one jet zone of the spa to another jet zone.
Be sure that no sand or particles are brought into the spa as they will cause
the diverter to seize up. It is best to turn the diverter valve only when the
pump is turned off.
7. PUMP UNION. These are used by service personnel to easily service the
jet pump(s).
8. HEATER UNION. These are used by service personnel to easily service the
spa heater assembly.
9. OZONATOR. Your ozone generator will operate
in conjunction with your filtration system. It will
deactivate when any other control function is manually
activated and will reactivate after one hour.
Ozonator (optional)
