WARNING: An empty spa (spa without water in it) must not
be left exposed to sunlight as shell damage may occur. Once the
spa is unwrapped, fill spa with water immediately or shade the spa
with cover or wrapping to prevent direct exposure to sunlight.
Changing Spa Water
As you use your spa, soap and detergent residues from your skin
and bathing suits, along with other substances from maintaining
the spa’s water chemistry will accumulate in the spa water and
make maintaining the water more difficult. Rinsing your bathing
suits and showering without soap prior to entering your spa will
increase the life of your spa water. Depending upon usage, the
spa water will need to be changed every 1-4 months or when
the water chemical levels become difficult to manage. When
changing spa water, remove all JetPaks. Clean the shell and jet
pod areas with a spa surface cleaner. See Spa Shell Care. Clean
the other areas of the spa, including JetPaks, with a spa surface
cleaner as necessary.
IMPORTANT: Drain your spa to an area that can handle a
large quantity of water. If draining water onto vegetation, make
sure that the sanitizer level (Chlorine or Bromine) of the water is
less than 0.5 PPM.
WARNING: Avoid drainage that can lead into basement
window wells or any other area where damage could occur.
To Drain Your Spa:
Step 1: Turn-off main electrical breaker to spa.
Step 2: Locate drain below equipment compartment door.
Step 3: Pull the drain out with a slight clockwise turn. Use
pliers if needed.
NOTE: Drain is fully extended at approximately 2 inches (5
centimeters).
Step 4: Remove drain cap.
NOTE: e drain spout will not drain when fully extended.
Step 5: Attach a standard garden hose. Push the drain spout in
halfway to actuate the drain.
NOTE: e Spa will drain about 5 gallons (20 liters) per
minute. Ensure that the drainage is in an area safely away from
window wells or basement entries.
Step 6: Once the spa is fully drained, pull the drain spout out all
the way, remove hose, replace the drain cap and push drain in all
the way.
WARNING: When refilling the spa, always super sanitize
the new water by adhering to the instructions in the Water
Chemistry section.
See Spa Filling instructions Page 12.
Filter Maintenance
It is recommended that pleated filter cartridge(s) be cleaned
every 3-6 weeks or as needed. Spas equipped with the optional
circulation pump system may require increased cleaning intervals
based on use and local water conditions.
After multiple cleanings, worn filter cartridges will need to be
replaced. To maintain warranty protection, use only genuine
Villeroy & Boch filter cartridge replacements. To clean or replace
your filter cartridge(s), complete the following:
CAUTION: Never operate spa with the filter(s) removed.
Step 1: Turn off main power to the spa.
Step 2: Remove filter cap and filter plate.
Step 3: Remove the pleated cartridge(s) by turning the filter
core cap(s) counter clockwise then sliding the cartridge(s)
upward from the filter core.
