ister. You can clean the filter (1) and canister (3) , but you must
replace the ProClarity Depth Filter (2) every 3 to 4 months.
G. Rinse debris from filter pleats using a garden hose and high-
pressure nozzle. Start at the top and work downward towards
handle. Repeat until all pleats are clean. Rinse out any debris
from the canister. Reassemble the ProClarity Filter. Remember
to replace the depth filter with a new one. Once the filter is
assembled, secure it with the filter pins (1).

upward to remove trapped air bubbles, then keep cartridges
submerged to prevent air entrapment during installation.

hy, see figure) then turn the handles clockwise to screw them
back into position.
N.B.: do not overtighten!
Install clean debris bag back onto the filter cover clips as shown
(you can flip the filter skimmer and use the back side to extend
usage).
Reinstall the skimmer shield over the filters. Then turn power to
spa back on.

Draining and Refilling

About every 3 to 6 months, you will want to replace the water
in the spa. Frequency of water replacement depends on fre-
quency of use, care taken in maintaining water quality, etc.
You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control
sudsing and/or you can no longer see the normal sparkle to the
water, even though the key water balance measurements are all
within the proper parameters.
WARNING! Turn off power to spa before draining it. Do
not turn the power back on until your spa has been
refilled.
If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors, freezing could
occur in the lines or the equipment (see the section on "Win-
terizing"). If instead it is very warm, do not leave the spa
exposed to direct sunlight.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power to spa.
Emptying the hot tub ( standard drain)

se. Hold the larger (rear) body to prevent it from turning, then loosen

I
unlock the drain valve.

2. You must first remove the corner panels in order to remove
the center panel.
3. Grab one of the corner panels, from the bottom, where it tou-
ches the bottom pan. Then gently pull the panel forward to un-
snap it from the holding clip. Place the corner panel in a safe lo-
cation to prevent from damaging it. Repeat the steps to remo-
ve the other corner panel.
4. Now you need to remove the center panel. Grab the sides of
the panel and gently pull the cabinet forward until all the clips
have been release then pull up to remove. Place the panel in a
safe location to prevent from damaging it.
5. Locate the QuickDrain valve
6. Unscrew drain valve cap. Place the cap aside.
7. Screw in the adapter with hose that was included in the equip-
ment bay; attach it to the QuickDrain.. Make sure to direct the
hose to an area where the water will drain properly.
8. Open the drain slice valve by sliding the handle to the side and
pulling up.
9. After the hot tub has drained close the slice valve by push-
ing it downward and sliding the handle to the side. Remove the
adapter and reinstall the QuickDrain cap before refilling hot tub
(see the relevant chapter).
