WINTER USE AND CARE

The hydrotherapy spa is designed for year-round use. If you decide to store the hydrotherapy spa for the win- ter, store it in a warm, dry location. Follow the steps below to winterize the hydrotherapy spa.

1.	Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE
	HYDROTHERAPY SPA on the previous page and
	this page).
2.	Remove all remaining water from the spa shell.
	Dry the spa shell with towels.
3.	Set the air control on the console to the lowest
	setting. Use a wet/dry vacuum to pull any remain-
	ing water from the system. To do this, place the
	vacuum nozzle over each jet, starting with the
	highest jet and finishing with the lowest one.
4.	Set the air control on the console to the highest
	setting and repeat step 3.
5.	Drain the pump (see DRAINING THE PUMP on
	this page). Once the water has drained from the
	pump, place the vacuum nozzle over the drainage
	hole in the pump and vacuum any additional water
	from the pump. Note: For additional protection
	you can remove the pump/motor from the spa
	to store it in a climate-controlled room.
6.	Clean the spa shell (see page 13).
7.	Clean the filter (see page 13).

DRAINING THE PUMP

After the hydrotherapy spa is drained (see

DRAINING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA on page 14), the pump should also be drained if the hydro-therapy spa will be stored for more than thirty days, or if it may be exposed to freezing temperatures.
