Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining)*
In many areas, the temperature drops below 0°C. We
recommend that you always have your spa full of water and running at
normal spa temperatures (26.7°C to 37.8°C). This will help reduce the
risk of freezing in your spa and your spa’s equipment.
Warning: If you find the need to drain your spa,
please be aware of the potential of freezing in your spas
equipment and plumbing.Even
if the directions below are followed perfectly, there is no guarantee
that your spa will not suffer freeze damage.
Freeze damage is not covered by your warranty.
- Open all filter covers.
- Remove the filter baskets and filters.
-
Drain your spa
completely as described in the instructions above.
-
Remove drain
plugs from the front of the pumps.
-
Disconnect the
unions from both sides of the pump.
-
Use a wet/dry
vacuum to blow any remaining water out of the jets and equipment
area.
Cover your spa with a good spa cover and an all-weather tarp to
ensure that neither rain nor snow enters the spa.
