Dimension One Spas – @Home Series Owner’s Manual

7. Remove the two shipping bolts located on the front of the
pump mount (circled in illustration).
8. If the spa has a bleeder valve in the skimmer area (see
picture at right) remove it to allow air to escape from the
pump(s) while filling the spa. To remove the bleeder,
unscrew it until it comes all the way out of the spa wall.
Note: Don’t forget to replace the bleeder valve later after the
pumps are operational.
9. Remove the skimmer canister lid and then remove the foam blocks securing the
filter (see photo at right). Remove the filter and fill the spa with a hose placed
in the empty filter canister. (For a detailed description of opening the skimmer
canister and removing the filter, see the Filter Cleaning section in the Routine
Equipment Maintenance section of this manual).
10. Fill the spa until the water level is about 6 inches (15 cm) below the top of the spa.
11. Once the spa is filled, replace the filters and turn on the power at the GFCI circuit breaker. Push the JETS
Button twice (use the JETS 1 Button on multi-pump spas) on North American 60Hz models to turn the pump on
to high speed. (Push it once on European 50Hz models for High Speed). Let the system run for 30 to 45 seconds
to prime the pump. Then push the button again to shut the pump off. If the spa has two jet pumps, repeat the
process by pushing the JETS 2 Button once to run it at high speed and prime that pump.
If the jets do not start, there is air trapped in the plumbing lines. To eliminate the trapped air, turn the pumps on
and off several times to force the trapped air through the pumps. If the jets still do not start, and the bleeder
valves have been open for some time, turn off the pumps and loosen the top pump unions (see illustration in
step 6) slightly to let any trapped air escape. Re-tighten the pump unions and turn the pumps on again. Turn the
pumps on and off several times until jets function properly.
