Winterizing Your Spa
Warning: Allowing the spa water to
f
reeze will cause severe damage to the
s
pa shell, equipment, and plumbing and
y
our warranty will be void.
Using your spa in freezing cold weather,
it is critical that a water temperature is
maintained well above freezing.
Freeze Protection
Your Hydro Spa is equipped with a
special feature called freeze protection.
If the high limit sensor detects 55 degrees
F at the heater, then all the equipment is
automatically activated to provide freeze
p
rotection. See details in electrical
control system.
Warning – We strongly recommend that
you inspect and test your spa and controls
on a daily basis during periods when
temperatures are below 32 degrees F.
Filling Your Spa
 Make sure GFCI breaker that
supplies your spa equipment
power is shut off.
 Filling your spa is the first step in
maintaining water quality and
chemical balance. Use only clear,
uncontaminated potable water
when filling your spa. Never use
hot water. This will prevent
scaling and corrosion from your
hot water tank from entering the
spa.
Water Level
The correct water fill level may vary with
each individual installation. Every
p
erson entering a spa displaces a given
volume of water. Once in the tub, the
water level should be just above the top
neck jets.
Chemically Treat Water Immediately
To assure the maintenance of water
quality it is imperative that you
chemically threat the spa water
immediately upon completion of filling.
