Warning! Aries recommends never draining a spa or leaving a spa
drained at any time of the year, especially for the winter. Regardless of
draining procedures used, there will always be a small amount of water
remaining in the plumbing lines or equipment. In wintertime, this water
can freeze and expand, causing serious damage. Aries Spas does not war-
ranty freeze-damage done to spas left drained.
