LOW USE OR NO-USE PERIODS
At certain times of the year you may not use your spa
as often as expected. For these Low-use or No-use
periods, we recommend the following:
Low-use: If your spa is being used less than once per
month, then you may wish to lower the temperature
setting. Lowering the temperature on your spa will cut
your cost of operation if you are not using the spa for
extended periods. However, you will need to adjust the
temperature setting before each use to heat the spa to
the desired level.
No-use for 1-2 weeks: If you plan to not use your spa
for 1-2 weeks, then we suggest that you not make any
changes in operating your spa.
No-use for 2-6 weeks: If you plan to not use your
spa for 2-6 weeks, then you may wish to lower the
temperature setting to approximately 26°C during the
No-use period.
No-use for over 6 weeks: If you plan to not use your
spa for over 6 weeks, then it is suggested that you
winterize your spa by following the steps below.
