START UP PROCEDURES
Follow recommendations for site location
and electrical connection. The water line on
the weir door is the level at which the water
should be maintained.
1. Fill the spa through the lter hole to 6”
(15.5cm) below the top of the spa with tap
water. Never use ‘softened’ water in
your spa. Softened water can impact the
chemical balance of the water and lead to
degradation of metal plumbing ttings
and possible jet plastic damage.
2. Turn power on to unit at circuit breaker or
disconnect panel.
3. Open the air controls, located on the top
lip, and cycle the jets from high to low.
Water should come from the therapy jets.
If water ow is not established, turn o jets
and see Priming Your Spa (next column).
4. Add chemicals. Ask your dealer for
additional information.
5. Verify all drain valves are closed, some are
under the spa.
Follow Operating Instructions for your
particular model to set heat to the desired
temperature. Initially you may nd that
the spa requires 12 to 14 hours on 230 Volt
installations to reach temperature. Keep your
thermal cover on the unit and close the air
controls to help the heating process.
Priming Your Spa
When lling your spa for the rst time or
after draining and relling the spa, you
may need to bleed air from the system.
Should you experience an air-lock on
Pump 1, remove the lter cover,
insert a garden hose through each center
hole that holds the lter as far as possible
without using force. Hold the hose in place
and turn on the water. Cycle pump 1 from low
to high several times, this forces water into the
pump and forces the air out. If this does not
work or you experience an air-lock on Pump 2,
remove the side panel and locate the pump.
With the pump on high speed, slowly loosen
the discharge (top) pump union until water
starts to trickle out. Once water is trickling out,
hand tighten the union (do not over tighten
as this could cause the union to crack) and
replace the side panel.
