6. Remove the equipment-side cabinet panels and locate the drain
plugs in the front of each pump (Figure A, page 12). 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
procedure. Use a wet/dry vacuum or other means to keep this from
flooding the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.
7. Loosen hose clamp at bottom of heater (Figure A, page 12) and pull
hose off of heater fitting (twist the hose back and forth while pulling
downward). Tip hose down and allow to drain, then reinstall hose
and clamp.
8. Re-install cabinet side panels and cover spa so that no casual
moisture can enter into it.
Consult your Jacuzzi dealer if you have any questions regarding winter
use or winterizing.
14.8 restarting Your spa in Cold weather
If you want to start up your spa after it has sat empty for a time in
freezing temperatures, be aware that the water remaining in certain
sections of the piping may still be frozen. This situation will block water
flow preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging
the equipment. We recommend you consult your dealer for guidance
before attempting to restart your spa under these conditions.
15.0 water Quality maintenance
To decrease the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection,
bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments, maintain water quality
within specified limits. This will enhance your enjoyment and prolong
the life of the hot tub’s equipment. Doing so requires regular attention
because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several factors.
Procrastination in regard to water maintenance will result in poor and
potentially unhealthful conditions for soaking and even damage to your
hot tub investment. For specific guidance on maintaining water quality,
consult your Authorized Jacuzzi dealer who can recommend appropriate
chemical products for sanitizing and maintaining your hot tub.
