3.Fill the spa..
Unscrew the cartridge and remove it.
After you remove the filter, remove the plastic wrapper and soak it in water for 30 minutes before you replace it. A dry filter can allow air into the filtration system which can cause the pump to fail to prime.
Place a garden hose in the filter canister and fill your spa with regular tap water about six inches from the top.
If the water level is too low or too high, your spa will not operate properly.
Always fill the spa through the filter canister! Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in the filtration system and prevent the pumps from operating properly.
