Filling the Spa with Water
Perform an inspection of the entire spa prior to filling it with water. Look for and remove
any debris in the spa tub and/or in the filter area. Verify that pump plugs are installed on
the pumps and all pump unions are tight.
DO NOT fill the spa with hot water straight out of a water heater or tap. This water
may be in excess of 140 F (60 C) and will cause damage to the surface and
plumbing of the spa and may cause severe burns to individuals. Filling the spa
with hot water will void the warranty. Ensure the spa is level before filling.
1. Prepare to fill the tub by removing all debris.
2. Remove the filters from the spa (see Removing, Installing and Cleaning Filters,
page 50).
3. Insert the hose in the area where the circ filter was located as shown in the
picture below (the circulation filter has a purple top).

4. Fill the spa to the bottom of the pillows to cover jets. DO NOT overfill the spa.
The water level will rise when occupants are inside.
5. With the front panel off, verify there are no leaks at the pump unions. Pump
unions can become loose during shipping. Verify that there are no leaks
during filling of the spa.
6. Replace both filters.
