Should the need arise to replace the suction fitting or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible. Never operate the hot tub if the suction fitting is broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.

Set Up & Delivery Guidelines Getting ready for delivery and setup of your new TubLicious Hot Tub Before you begin to enjoy your TubLicious Hot Tub please read the following instructions thoroughly. Your TubLicious Hot Tub is light weight and portable making it easy to enjoy almost anywhere you want! Your deck, boat dock, beside your RV or even in your home. Just make sure that it is above ground on a level surface and that the equipment compartment is easily accessible.
Start Up Instructions FILLING YOUR TUBLICIOUS HOT TUB Your new hot tub has left the factory cleaned and polished. You may have to clean out any dirt that has accumulated during shipping. Use warm water and a sponge or cloth. Be sure that all fittings are connected, secure and hand tightened in the equipment area (Refer to picture on Page 24). Your TubLicious hot tub is shipped with fittings disconnected to ensure no damage or freezing occurs during the hot tub’s route from our factory to your home.
Filter Maintenance Filtration starts as soon as flow is steady through the filter. As the filter cartridge removes the dirt from the hot tub water, the accumulated dirt causes flow resistance. CLEANING AND REPLACING FILTER CARTRIDGE Your hot tub has been designed for quick and easy maintenance. The filter cartridge should be rinsed by hose once a week and cleaned with a cartridge cleaner once a month. A second filter cartridge is recommended and will speed up the process.
Draining and Winterizing your Hot Tub DRAINING YOUR TUBLICIOUS HOT TUB CONT. Once empty, clean as required. (Refer to Page 12 for cleaning recommendations) . To finish remove garden hose and close spa drain and attach safety cap. REFILLING YOUR TUBLICIOUS HOT TUB Please follow the instructions on page 7, filling your hot tub. Follow start up instructions on Page 7.
MP3 Player Option MP3 Player Your TubLicious Hot Tub may be equipped with an optional MP3 Player option for your enjoyment.
Water Quality Maintenance Sanitizing: To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the hot tub water, a sanitizer must be used regularly, either chlorine or bromine. Bromine residual of 3 to 5 ppm is generally considered desirable. A two-part bromine system or granular chlorine (Dichlor) can also be acceptable sanitizers. Chlorine residual should be 1 to 3 ppm. After filling the spa with water, check chemical levels using test strips provided with the start-up chemical bucket.
Water Quality Maintenance Stain and Scale: Stain and Scale is used to prevent and eliminate scale in the spa water. Stain and Scale should be added initially when the spa is filled as well as weekly for preventative maintenance. For initial application add 30ml of STAIN AND SCALE into the spa water directly. Stain and Scale should be added while the spa is being filled.
Product Care Guide STAINLESS STEEL CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS ABOVE THE WATER LINE To preserve the stainless steel finish of the controls and components above the water line, we recommend they be wiped with a dry soft cloth after each use of your hot tub. TUBLICIOUS COVER CARE A well cared for hot tub cover can provide many years of protection for your hot tub. Be sure to clean and condition your cover at least once a month—more often if needed.
