SPA CARE AND MAINTENANCE Draining Your Spa To drain your spa, perform the following steps: 1. Turn the power off. (Turn breaker off). 2. Select a safe, suitable drainage area capable of safely assimilating 300 plus gallons of water, which may contain both unsanitary contaminants and chemical residue that could cause harm to plants or grass.
NOTES: Iron and copper in the water can stain the spa shell if allowed to go unchecked. Ask your Hydro Spa dealer about a stain and scale inhibitor to use if your spa water has a high concentration of dissolved minerals.
SPA CARE AND MAINTENANCE Care Of Spa Cover To clean and condition the vinyl cover: Remove the cover from the spa and gently lean it up against a wall or fence. Using a garden hose, spray the cover to loosen and rinse away any dirt or debris. Using a sponge and/or a soft bristle brush, and using a very mild soap solution (one teaspoon dish- washing liquid with two gallons of water), or baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), scrub the vinyl top in a circular motion.
SPA CARE AND MAINTENANCE The following steps should protect your spa from freezing: Disconnect the spa from the power supply. Remove the screws holding your spa access panel door. Open the valve and the spa will drain by gravity flow. Remove the filter cartridge, then clean and store in a dry place.
WATER QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE Basic Chemical Safety When using chemicals, always read the labels carefully and follow directions. Though chemicals protect you and your spa when used correctly, they can be hazardous in concentrated form. Observe the following guidelines: Allow only a responsible person to handle spa chemicals. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHIL- DREN.

WATER QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE Once the CH is balanced, it normally remains stable, although the addition of more water with a high or low calcium content will raise or lower the CH reading of the water. When the Calcium Hardness is within the recommended range, proceed. Balancing The pH The recommended pH level for your spa water is 7.4-7.6.
WATER QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE Sanitizer is extremely important for killing algae, bacteria and viruses, and preventing unwanted organisms from growing in the spa. At the same time, you don’t want too high a sanitizer level, or it can irritate your skin, lungs, and eyes. Always maintain the sanitizer level in your spa at the recommended level for each type of sanitizer.
