MAINTENANCE
Automatic Filtration/Maintenance
If you plan to be away, minimum water quality will be maintained by running the filter system.
If you will be away for an extended period, however, we recommend that you drain the spa (following the procedure
described under Winterizing on this page), as long periods without maintenance of water quality could be detrimental
to the spa.
Another means of maintaining minimum water quality while away for less than two weeks is to follow the procedure
outlined for winterizing your spa in a warm climate. (Refer to Winterizing.)
NOTE: We do not recommend using this procedure if you are absent during the summer, when algae buildup
is most likely.
Always keep your spa covered when not in use to reduce heat loss and evaporation and to prevent debris from
falling in.
Winterizing
In a climate where winter temperatures are below
freezing, follow this procedure when the spa will
NOT be used:
1. Turn OFF power to the unit at the main electric panel.
2. Drain the spa completely by attaching a garden hose
to the drain valve on the suction plumbing. Then
remove the hose and leave the drain valve open to
completely drain the spa.
3. Remove, clean and store the filter cartridges, in a dry
location.
4. Keep water and debris out by covering with a spa
cover.
Before using the spa again, review the Operating
Instructions.
NOTE: In a warm climate where there are occasional
freezing temperatures, your spa is automatically
protected against freezing. Whenever water tem-
perature falls below 40°F, the pump will activate to
circulate water until the temperature reaches 45°F.
To maintain water quality adjust temperature setpoint to
the minimum setting (80°F), and select ECONOMY
mode.
Factory Installed Redwood Skirt
Your spa is supplied with a factory-installed red-
wood skirt which completely surrounds the spa. The
door can be opened for maintenance.
The skirt is made of kiln-dried redwood and can be
left natural to weather, or you may choose to apply a
stain or clear finish. Consult your local paint dealer for
the appropriate product.
NOTE: We recommend a water based material. Oil
or solvent based finishing materials will degrade the
skirt backing material.
If it becomes necessary to remove one or more of
the skirt panels for major service access, simply remove
the screws with which the section is secured.
To detach any of the panels, first remove all screws
from the panel being detached.
The panels can be reattached to the spa by revers-
ing the above procedure.
NOTE: When you remove the skirt, you will notice
the plastic covered foam insulated batts. These
batts are designed to be removed when service is
required and reinstalled when service has been
completed.
