Winterizing the Pump

The pump must be protected when freezing temperatures
are expected. Allowing the pump to freeze will cause severe
damage and void the warranty.
Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool, spa, or
hot tub systems. Antifreeze is highly toxic and may
damage the circulation system. The only exception to this
is Propylene Glycol. For more information, see your local
pool/spa supply store or contact a qualified swimming pool
service company.
1. Drain all water from the pump, system equipment,
and piping.
2. Remove the two (2) drain plugs. Store the drain
plugs in a safe location and reinstall them when the
cold weather season is over. Ensure the drain plugs
and o-rings are not misplaced.
3. Keep the motor covered and dry. Do not cover
the pump with plastic, because this will create
condensation that will damage the pump.
NOTE
Zodiac Pool Systems LLC recommends
having a qualified service technician or electrician
properly disconnect the electrical wiring at
the switch or junction box. Once the power is
removed, loosen the two (2) unions and store the
pump indoors. For safety, and to prevent entry of
contaminants, reinstall all conduit and terminal box
covers.
4. When the system is reopened for operation,
have a qualified technician or electrician make
sure all piping, valves, wiring and equipment
are in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations. Pay close attention to the filter
and electrical connections.
5. The pump must be primed prior to starting. Refer to
Section 4.1, Start-up.
