Filling Your Spa

Remove the access door (Fig 1) and assure the drain valve is closed and the cap is secure (fig 2).

Place a garden hose into filter area (Fig 3) and fill the spa with cold (never warm or hot) water 6 to 8 inches (150 to

200 mm) below the top edge of the spa (Fig 2.1). Do not overfill, as the spa’s water level will rise as each person

enters the spa. Always keep the spa water level above the jet openings.

Draining the spa

Draining your spa on a regular basis rids the spa of dissolved solids and protects your spa equipment from the effects

of residual calcium hardness and total alkalinity problems. Depending upon usage, it may be as often as every three

months.

To drain the spa follow these steps:

1. Turn power off to the spa.

1. Remove the access door (Fig 1) and locate the drain valve (Fig 2). .

2. Assure that the drain valve is in the off position (as shown in figure 2). Remove the cap (Fig 2) and attach a

standard garden hose to the drain valve (Fig 4).

3. Route the garden hose to a sewer drain capable of safely assimilating 300 plus gallons of water which may

contain both unsanitary contaminants and chemical residue. Open the drain valve (as shown in Fig 4). The

spa drains slowly.

4. The spa can only drain to the lowest jet. It may be necessary to manually remove the remaining water.

5. Before refilling your spa, assure that the drain valve is in the off position and the cap is secured (Fig 2).
