11 .7 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of any
kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap solu-
tion.
CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any reason
since this action may induce an electrical short in the spa’s
electrical equipment.
11 .8 Winterizing
Your Sundance spa is designed to automatically protect itself against freezing
when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing temperatures,
you should check periodically to be certain that the electrical supply to the
spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter cold weather less than -20 °F
(-29 °C), choose the F3 “Standard” skimming/heating mode to prevent freez-
ing (Page 19).
If you do not intend to use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power out-
age during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important that all
water be removed from the spa and equipment to protect against damage
from freezing. For expert winterization of your spa, contact your
authorized Sundance dealer. In emergency situations, damage can be
minimized by taking the following steps:
1. Follow the directions on page 21-22 for draining the spa.
2. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means
necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and into
the footwell.
3. When the water level ceases to drop, use whatever means available to
remove any remaining water from the footwell.
4. Turn off power to the spa.
5. Remove the equipment-side cabinet panels and locate the drain plugs
in the front of the pump(s) (Figure-A, Page 11). Remove these plugs to
allow the water to drain out of the pumps and heater. Note:
Approximately one to two gallons will be released during this proce-
dure. Use a wet/dry vacuum or other means to keep this from flooding
the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.
6. Loosen the hose clamp on the circulation pump intake behind the
control box (Figure-A, Page 11) and pull the hose off (twist hose back
