About every 3 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The
frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of
use, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. You will know it is
time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no
longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water even though the key
water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters.
CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To prevent damage
to the spa’s components, turn off power to the spa at the circuit
breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until
yourspahasbeenrelled.
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind when
draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors,
freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment, see “WINTERIZ-
ING” (page 37). On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do not leave
the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps:
Turn off power to spa at breaker.
1. Locate and remove the synthetic cabinet
door screws and door. The door is located
directly below the control panel.
2. Cut zip tie(s) and pull drain hose from
equipment area (Figure A).
3. Hold drain hose above water line, then
unthread drain cap (1) from hose using a
counterclockwise rotation. Place drain hose
on ground, turn valve (2) counterclockwise
to start drain, making sure to direct water
away from spa (Figure B).
4. After spa is drained, turn valve clockwise to
close and reinstall drain cap on drain hose
tting until nger tight! DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
5. Coil drain hose up and place back inside the spa equipment bay (Fig. A).
6. Reinstall synthetic cabinet door and screws, then refer to the “Spa
Fill Up Procedure” (page 19).
12.3 Pillow Care
Remove and clean each headrest by gently grasping both ends in each
hand and pulling upward to release each pillow “snap”. To reinstall,
simply “snap” each pillow back into place. Clean as needed with soapy
water using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. Always remove the pillows when
adding chemical shock treatment to the spa water. The headrests can be
returned to the spa when the sanitizer reading drops below 4 ppm.
