Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining)
In many areas of the country, the temperature drops below 32˚F (0°C). We recommend that you always 
have your spa full of water and running at normal spa temperatures (80˚F to 100˚F, 26.7°C to 37.8°C). This 
will help reduce the risk of freezing in your spa and your spa’s equipment.
Warning: If you find the need to drain your spa, please be aware of the potential of freezing in 
your spas equipment and plumbing . Even if the directions below are followed perfectly, there 
is no guarantee that your spa will not suffer freeze damage .
Freeze damage is not covered by your warranty .
Open all filter covers.
1. 
Remove the filter baskets and filters.
2. 
Drain your spa completely as described in the instructions above.
3. 
Vacuum water from the spa’s main drain fitting with a 
4. 
wet/dry vacuum.
Remove drain plugs from the front of the pumps.
5. 
Disconnect the unions from both sides of the pump.
6. 
Blow any remaining water out of the jets and equipment 
7. 
area with the wet/dry vacuum.
Cover your spa with a good spa cover and an all-weather 
8. 
tarp  to  ensure  that  neither  rain  nor  snow  enters  the 
spa.
NOTE: All manifolds are plumbed in series directly to the 
main drain (see example at right), making it easier to remove 
water and reducing the possibility of freeze damage.
Vacation Care
You can leave your spa unattended for up to two weeks if you follow these instructions.
ALWAYS lock your cover using the cover locks if you plan to be away from home and the spa  
is filled with water.
Set the spa to Sleep Mode. (See instructions on 
1. 
page 12 or page 14 for changing modes.)
Following the water quality instructions starting on 
2. 
page 24, adjust the pH.
Shock the water (add either chlorine or bromine sanitizer).
3. 
When you return, check and adjust the pH and shock the water.
4. 
If you will not be using your spa for longer than 14 days and a spa maintenance service is not available, we 
strongly recommend you drain or winterize your spa.
