DRAINING THE PUMPS

After the hydrotherapy spa is drained, the jet pumps
should also be drained if the spa will be stored for
more than thirty days or if it may be exposed to freez-
ing temperatures.

Turn off the power to
the spa. To drain the jet
pumps, remove the
access panels from the
spa (see ATTACHING
AND REMOVING THE
ACCESS PANELS on
page 17). Locate the jet
pumps inside the spa.
Loosen the indicated
collar on each of the
pumps.

WINTER USE AND CARE

The hydrotherapy spa is designed for year-round use.
If you decide to store the spa for the winter, store it in
a warm, dry location. Follow the steps below to winter-
ize the spa.

1. Make sure the power to the spa is turned off.
2. Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE HYDROTHER-

APY SPA on page 17).

3. Remove all remaining water from the spa shell. Dry

the spa shell with towels.

4. Set the air controls to the lowest setting. Use a

wet/dry vacuum to pull any remaining water from
the system. To do this, place the vacuum nozzle
over each jet, starting with the highest jet and fin-
ishing with the lowest jet. 

5. Set the air controls to the highest setting and

repeat step 3.

6. Drain the pumps (see DRAINING THE PUMPS on

this page). Once the water is drained from the
pumps, place the vacuum nozzle over the drainage
hole in the pumps and vacuum any additional
water from the pumps. Note: For additional pro-
tection, remove the pumps/motors from the spa
and store them in a climate-controlled room.

7. Clean the spa shell (see page 15).
8. Clean the filter (see page 15).
9. Shut the power off at the breaker. Label the

breaker in such a way that the breaker will not
be turned on accidentally.

10. Reattach the access panels and the spa cover.

REPLACING THE LED LIGHT

Remove the access panels (see ATTACHING AND
REMOVING THE ACCESS PANELS on page 17).
Make sure the spa power is turned off. Next, locate the
light housing. Turn the light housing counterclockwise
and remove it from the spa shell.

To replace the LED light, pull the old LED light out of
the housing and insert a new LED light. Reattach the
light housing to the spa shell. Reattach the access
panels to the spa.
