13.5 Draining
IMPORTANT: Keep the hot tub covered when empty of water. Sun-
light and extreme cold can damage the surface and cause it to peel
or blister.
1. Turn power OFF!
2. Locate the hose bib, at the bottom of the hot tub, Figure 13.5a. Make
sure that the valve is in the OFF position.
3. Unscrew the cap from the spa drain, Figure 13.5b.
4. Attach one end of your garden hose to the drain valve, Figure 13.5c.
Place the other end in an area safe for water runoff.
5. Turn the hose bib switch to the open position to release the water,
Figure 13.5d.
6. Once the hot tub is drained, turn the switch back to the closed
position, remove the hose and reinstall the cap.
13.6 Winterizing
All D1 spas are designed for year-round use. Your hot tub has an
automatic freeze protection mode to circulate water during freezing
weather, assuming the system has electrical power and the proper water
level. However, if freezing weather prohibits normal use, an authorized
service provider should winterize your hot tub. Draining the unit will
not prevent freeze damage, as small amounts of water in the plumbing
canexpandanddamagethesystem.Winterizingtheunitisspecically
not covered by the manufacturers’ warranty, so you should contact a
professional to both winterize and restart your hot tub if necessary.

13.7 Special Cold Weather Instructions
The system has a “Smart Winter” freeze protection mode to circulate
water during freezing weather, assuming the system has electrical power
and the proper water level. It will automatically activate the pump(s) to
circulate water. This is a normal hot tub function. No corrective action is
necessary. This feature protects the spa from freezing.
However, if there freezing conditions present and shutting down the spa
for the winter is unavoidable, or where conditions may get too cold for
the spa’s “Smart Winter” mode to prevent freezing, the spa should be
Winterized by a professional Dimension One dealer or authorized service
representative.
