WINTERIZING YOUR SPA
As mentioned in the owner’s manual, it is strongly recommended to use a professional to close your spa to prevent any damage due to improper winterizing.
Under no circumstances can we be held responsible for damages that may result from a closure carried out by you or a technician.
Also, due to variable weather conditions during winter, water infiltration and accumulation in the spa is always possible. This could cause freezing and future damages.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Drain the hot tub using the drain valve and a garden hose;

2. Unplug the hot tub;

3. Remove the filter cover and the cartridge;

4. Remove the VGB suction cover off the bottom  (depending on the model, you might have one or two covers);

5. Temporarily seal off VGB suction hose(s);

6. Close the jets;

7.  Open the air valves;

8. Open the waterfall valve (optional on some hot tubs);

9. Using the vacuum cleaner, blow air into the filter connection;

10.  Open the jets one at a time to allow water to drain (after opening each jet, it is important to close it to channel the air pressure);
    REQUIRED TOOL

11. Temporarily seal off the filter cover;
