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.
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 hose bibb 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.
Factory Installed Wooden Skirt
Your spa is supplied with a factory-installed stained
wooden skirt which completely surrounds the spa. The
door can be opened for maintenance.
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.
