covered with the spa cover. The spa cover
must be tight for the water to heat. Set the
air control to low. Set the temperature to the
desired setting. The water will heat at 6.0 to
8.0¡F an hour. If you are using the spa indoors,
and the room temperature is maintained at
70¡F, it will take approximately 5 to 7 hours for
the water to reach the set temperature.
b. If you are using the HYDROTHERAPY SPA
outdoors, it may take longer for the water to
heat. See the chart below for the approximate
heating time.
