Filling Your Spa
Now it's time to fill your spa / hot tub with water. Do not turn
on the electricity yet until the spa / hot tub is completely
filled. To properly fill your spa / hot tub:
1. Make sure that the filter (in the filtration canister) is
gently screwed into place. Turn it clockwise until it stops
being careful not to over-tighten it (this avoids cracking
the filter).
2. Connect a standard garden hose to a faucet with regular
cold tap water (not softened water or hot water).
Figure 8 - Filtration Canister
CAUTION: The water from your hot water tank should not be used to fill
the spa / hot tub.
3. Put the pre-filter* on the other end of the hose, point the pre-filter into a suitable
drain, turn on the water, and allow any sediment to be flushed down the drain.
Once the water stream runs clear, turn off the hose.
4. Put the pre-filter (if equipped) into the filtration canister and turn on the hose.
5. Fill slowly. If too much water pressure is used, foaming water can force air into
the pipes and cause startup problems.
* Pre-filters are available at most dealers
Important: To assure that the pump is properly primed, fill the spa / hot tub through
the filter area only.
6. Fill the spa / hot tub until the water level is about 1” above all hydrotherapy jets (or
about 6” below the lip of the spa / hot tub). Do not over fill.
Note: Every person entering a spa / hot tub displaces a given volume of water, so
adjust water level to the number of people regularly using the spa / hot tub.
Turn off the hose and check again for any small leaks.
