SHUT -OFF VALVES
Your spa is equipped with shut-off valves (see
equipment diagram in the Series Manual) that shut off
the water flow to the equipment system for dealer
service. At times, a new spa or one that has recently
been serviced, may have the shut-off valves partially
closed which can restrict the water flow and hinder
jet performance. Be sure the valves are fully open.
FREEZE PROTECTION
When a freeze condition is detected (which occurs
when the temperature in the heater housing drops
to 55° F) the jet pump(s) is automatically activated.
In areas with extreme cold winter conditions, your spa should be fine as long as it is left
running at normal operating temperatures, or see your dealer for an optional freeze
sensor. If you plan to turn the spa off, follow the instructions in this manual for
winterizing your spa.

OVERHEATING

In the case of extended hot weather, the spa water temperature may reach and
maintain 104° F to 106° F. This is due to the ambient temperature and the full
insulation in the spa cabinet. The simplest solution to this heat buildup is, lifting the spa
cover a few inches for several hours to allow the heat to escape. You may also have
the option of shortening the pump-run time. See Control panel section in the Series
Manual for available options.

FILTER CARTRIDGE

Your portable spa is equipped with the Constant Clean
Spas use #5040, 50 sq. ft. T-Handle Filter cartridge. Depending on your spa model, it
will feature one or two Vortex filter(s) that includes Hi-Flo Vortex skimmer(s) and
filament filter cartridge(s).
NOTE: It is very important that the components of these filtration systems be
installed properly in the proper part of the spa (see jetting diagram and REMOVING
THE FILTER for complete instructions).

SUCTION FITTINGS

There are suction fittings in the footwell of your spa.
These are openings through which the jet-pumps
draw water. They have been equipped with safety
covers. Suction through the fittings can be strong.
The safety covers must remain in place and undam-
aged. A fitting with a damaged cover can be danger-
ous, especially to small children or people with long
hair. Should any part of the body become drawn to a
fitting, turn the jet-pump off immediately. Long hair
should be restrained in a bathing cap, never allow it to
float freely in the spa. Replace any missing or damaged suction covering.
