WARNING: To reduce the risk of drowning, electric shock, or serious injury, read the following
important precautions before using the hydrotherapy spa.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the hydrotherapy spa are
adequately informed of all precautions.
2. Use the hydrotherapy spa only as described
in this manual.
3. The hydrotherapy spa is intended for home
use only. Do not use this product in any
commercial, rental or institutional setting.
4. Use the hydrotherapy spa only on a level
surface. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on
carpet or other materials that could be damaged by moisture. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on rough or sharp surfaces such as
gravel or wood chips.
5. The hydrotherapy spa will weigh approximately 1800 pounds when it is filled with
water. Make sure the location you select for
the hydrotherapy spa will support this
weight, plus the weight of the occupants.
6. Inspect and tighten all parts regularly.
Replace any worn parts immediately.
7. DANGERÑRisk of injury: Do not remove or
alter the covers on the suction fittings. Never
operate the hydrotherapy spa if the suction
guard is missing or broken. If you need to
replace a suction fitting or pump, make sure
the flow rate of the replacement is compatible. Keep hair and body parts away from the
suction guard. Do not allow long hair to float
freely in the water; long hair should be
restrained with a bathing cap.
8. IMPORTANT: Do not allow the hydrotherapy
spa to be exposed to direct sunlight when it
is empty. The surface of the spa shell can
reach temperatures as high as 150ûF in a
matter of minutes if exposed to the sun while
it is empty. These high temperatures can
cause significant damage, such as blistering
of the shell surface and warping of the spa
shell. Any damage caused by sun exposure
is not covered under the warranty.
9. Do not bring any object into the hydrotherapy spa that could damage the spa shell.
10. Never insert any object into any opening.
11. Do not use breakable containers in or near
the hydrotherapy spa.
12. Do not sit on the spa cover or place objects
on it. It is not designed to support weight.
13. Remove any water or debris which may collect on the spa cover.
14. Keep children under the age 12 and pets
away from the hydrotherapy spa when it is
not in use.
15. Keep all chemicals away from children and
pets.
16. The pH and chemical balance of the water
must be maintained as explained in this manual (see pages 10 and 14). Failure to do so
may cause injury to users or damage to the
spa, and it will void the warranty.
17. Individuals with infections and open sores or
wounds should not use the hydrotherapy
spa. Bacteria thrive in warm and hot water.
Always keep your spa disinfected and maintain the proper chemical balance.
18. Shower before and after using the hydrotherapy spa. This will remove any deodorant,
perspiration or body oils which could contaminate the water. Showering after will
remove any residual chemicals and will also
remove any bacteria which may have been in
the spa.
19. DANGERÑWhen connecting the power cord
(see PLUGGING IN THE HYDROTHERAPY
SPA on page 10), plug the power cord directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying
15 or more amps. No other appliance should
be on the same circuit. Replace the power
cord immediately if damaged.
20. Do not use an extension cord with the
hydrotherapy spa. This could damage the
motor and will void the warranty.
21. DANGERÑIf you will be using the hydrotherapy spa outside, do not bury the power cord;

There are many factors to consider when choosing a location to set up the hydrotherapy spa. These factors vary
depending on whether you use the hydrotherapy spa inside or outside. We have listed several factors you may
wish to consider as you decide where you want to use the hydrotherapy spa.
If you set up the hydrotherapy spa inside:
1. The hydrotherapy spa will increase the level of
humidity in your home. The location you choose
should be well ventilated. You may need to install
a ventilation fan or use a dehumidifier.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
Do not use an extension cord with the
hydrotherapy spa.
3. The hydrotherapy spa should be close to a source
of water.
4. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on carpet or
other material that may be damaged by moisture.
We recommend that you place the hydrotherapy
spa on a water- and stain-resistant, non-slip surface with a floor drain for any water that may
splash from the hydrotherapy spa.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the
hydrotherapy spa when it is filled with water, plus
the weight of the occupants. The hydrotherapy
spa weighs approximately 1800 pounds when
filled with water.
6. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa above a finished
living area, due to the risk of water damage.
7. Be sure that there is room around the hydrotherapy spa to permit servicing of the unit. The dimensions of the spa are 70ÓW x 70ÓL x 29ÓH. You
should allow for this size when choosing the location.
8. The hydrotherapy spa is not designed for in-floor
installation. However, it is compatible with a deck
system that is built flush with the top of the spa,
provided you leave access to the motor for service.
9. Be sure to note any other considerations, such as
aesthetics or privacy concerns, that may affect the
safety or enjoyment of using the hydrotherapy
spa.
If you set up the hydrotherapy spa outside:
1. You should check your local building codes concerning the use of outdoor spas.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
Do not use an extension cord with the
hydrotherapy spa.
3. The hydrotherapy spa should be close to a source
of water.
4. We recommend that you place the hydrotherapy
spa on a water- and stain-resistant, non-slip surface. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on rough
or sharp surfaces such as gravel or wood chips.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the
hydrotherapy spa when it is filled with water, plus
the weight of the occupants. The hydrotherapy
spa weighs approximately 1800 pounds when
filled with water.
6. Think about environmental factors, such as rain,
wind, shade, sunlight etc.
7. You should be able to monitor the use of the
hydrotherapy spa from your home, to prevent
unauthorized use by children. You may want to
enclose the spa with a fence and self-latching
gate to prevent unauthorized use.
8. Be sure that there is room around the hydrotherapy spa to permit servicing of the unit. The dimensions of the spa are 70ÓW x 70ÓL x 29ÓH. You
should allow for this size when choosing the location.
9. The hydrotherapy spa is not designed to be
installed below ground level. However, it is compatible with a deck system that is built flush with
the top of the spa, provided you leave access to
the motor for service.
10.Be sure to note any other considerations, such as
aesthetics or privacy concerns, which may affect
the safety or enjoyment of using the hydrotherapy
spa.

The hydrotherapy spa is designed to seat four adults.
The eight jets provide a relaxing massage to sooth
away stress, and the strength of the water massage
can be adjusted by the air control. The hydrotherapy
spa holds 200 gallons of water and offers a heating
system (70¡F to 104¡F) and a filtration system.
The guidelines below explain how to properly use the
hydrotherapy spa. Follow these guidelines to maintain
the hydrotherapy spa for your long-term enjoyment.
PLUGGING IN THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
Once the hydrotherapy spa is filled with water, the
power cord can be plugged in and the spa can be
turned on. Note: The first time the power cord is
plugged in, the spa will turn on automatically.
When connecting the power cord, plug the power cord
directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be on the
same circuit. Replace the power cord immediately if it
becomes damaged.
The power cord is equipped with a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), located at the end of the
power cord. You should always test the GFCI before
using the hydrotherapy spa.
First, turn on the hydrotherapy spa by pressing the
On/Off Switch on the console. Once the unit is running, press the GFCI ÒtestÓ button. The hydrotherapy
spa should shut off. Press the ÒresetÓ button. The
hydrotherapy spa should resume normal operation. If
the hydrotherapy spa continues to run after the ÒtestÓ
button is pressed, then the GFCI is damaged. Do not
use the hydrotherapy spa until the GFCI has been
repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician.
TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER
The hydrotherapy spa comes with a starter chemical
pack for maintaining the water in the spa. Disregard
the directions on the individual packages of ÒQUICK
pHix It DOWNÓ and ÒQUICK pHix It UP.Ó However, the
directions on the bottle of ÒNon-chlorine ShoxÓ and
ÒBromine BaseÓ are correct. Always keep the chemi-
cals away from children and pets.
The first time you use the spa, you should test and
treat the water. You must also treat the water each
time you refill the spa. Once you have verified that
the spa is functioning properly, and have allowed the
water to circulate for a while, you should remove the
spa cover and add 1/3 of the ÒBromine BaseÓ bottle,
and 1/3 of the ÒNon-chlorine ShoxÓ bottle to the water
in the spa. Allow the water to circulate for five minutes. You should now test the pH level of the water by
using the included test strips. Refer to the test strip
packaging for instructions on using the test strips. The
pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8.
If the level is too low, add half of one of the ÒQUICK
pHix It UPÓ packets to the water. Let the water circulate through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH level
again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.
If the level is too high, add half of one of the ÒQUICK
pHix It DOWNÓ packets to the water. Let the water circulate through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH
level again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.
See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 14 for information
concerning proper water maintenance.
STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the
water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control
on the console to the lowest setting (see USING THE
CONSOLE on page 12). The pumping unit will heat
the water as it pumps. The water will heat at about
1.8¡F an hour with a cover on. Note: A cover made
especially for your spa model is available as an
optional purchase. Ask for Model No. PFHS61590.
If you are using the hydrotherapy spa indoors, and
the room temperature is maintained at 70¡F, it will
take approximately 18 to 22 hours for the water to
reach the set temperature with a cover installed.
The temperature and water flow can be set or
changed by the controls on the console (see USING
THE CONSOLE on page 12).

SPA OPERATION
Refer to the diagram above. The function of each
component is explained below.
The suction vents (A) located near the floor of the
spa bring the water into the pump in order to operate
the system. The suction covers should always be in
place over the suction vents. Never operate the spa
without the suction covers in place.
The filter (B) can be removed for replacement and
cleaning (see CHECKING AND CLEANING THE FILTER on page 13).
The temperature probe (C) reads the current water
temperature.
Use of the console (D) is explained on page 12 of
this manual.
The hydrotherapy spa offers an automatic freeze protection. If the water temperature falls below 40ûF, the
pump will begin circulating the water to prevent the
water from freezing.
AIR CONTROL

Console Diagram
USING THE CONSOLE
Refer to the console diagram above. The function of
each console control is explained below:
Air Control: Determines the amount of air that is in
the spa jet system during operation. If the control is
turned to the left, the amount of air flowing through
the jets will increase. If the control is turned to the
right, the amount will decrease.
On/Off Button: Turns the spa on and off. When you
first press the on/off button, the spa jet unit will run at
low speed, providing gentle hydrotherapy. Press the
button again and the spa will run at high speed, providing more intense hydrotherapy. Press the button a
third time, and the spa will shut off.
The spa also features an automatic mode which heats
and filters the water when the spa is left unattended.
When the spa is first plugged in, or if the buttons on
the console have not been used for longer than twenty minutes, the automatic mode will begin filtering or
heating the water, as needed. Note: To keep the fil-
ter and heat cycles from running, the power cord
must be unplugged.
Thermostat: Controls the temperature of the water.
The water heats at about 1.8¡F an hour with a cover
on. The thermostat can be set to heat the water from
70¡F to 104¡F. You should use a medical or other
accurate thermometer to check the temperature of the
water.

waxes.
EVERY SIX MONTHS
¥ Treat the exterior with a wood sealant (see MAIN-
TAINING THE SPA EXTERIOR below).
MAINTAINING THE SPA EXTERIOR
The wood panel exterior has been treated with a
sealant at the factory to protect the wood from water
damage. We suggest that you treat the wood finish
twice a year with an additional coat of weather
sealant. Contact your local spa and pool supplier for
advice on which sealants work best in your climate.
CLEANING THE SPA SHELL
The spa shell should be cleaned with a mild soap
solution. Do not use solvents. The spa should always
be clean and dry before being moved or stored.
SANITIZING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
Please refer to your local pool and spa supplier for
information concerning which chemicals you should
use in your area to sanitize the spa.
The most common sanitizing agent is a solid bromine
concentrate. The amount required varies according to
several factors, such as user load, temperature, water
conditions etc.
Proper water maintenance is a fairly complex process.
We recommend that you contact your local pool and
spa supplier for information on how you should best
accomplish this.
CHECKING AND CLEANING THE FILTER
The filter should be checked periodically for build-up
of dirt and oil. If the filter needs to be cleaned, follow
the steps below:
1. Turn off the power.
2. Remove the two
screws from the
filter cover. Be
careful not to
strip the threads
from the holes.
Remove the filter
cover.
3. Remove the filter
from the spa jet
unit by lifting the
filter from the filter
housing.
4. Check the filter for
any dirt or debris.
If the filter needs
to be cleaned,
rinse the filter with
a hose. If the filter
is still dirty, you will need to soak it in a cleaning
solution which can be obtained from a pool and
spa supply store.
5. Inspect the filter for damage. Replace the filter if
there are any signs of damage.
6. Re-insert the cleaned filter into the filter housing.
7. Re-attach the filter cover with the screws. Do not
overtighten the screws.

WATER CHEMISTRY
The hydrotherapy spa comes with a starter chemical
pack for maintaining the water in the spa. (See TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER on page 10.)
Additional chemicals can be purchased at a pool and
spa supply store.
CAUTION: The chemicals used to maintain the pH
balance of the water and to sanitize the water can
be dangerous. Always follow these basic guidelines when handling the chemicals:
1. Always read and follow the directions on the
label, unless directed otherwise.
2. Never mix different chemicals.
3. Do not exceed the recommended amounts of
chemicalsÑfollow the directions on the label
closely.
4. Keep all chemicals out of the reach of children
and pets.
5. Keep all containers closed tightly when not in
use.
6. Never add water to the chemicalsÑalways add
the chemicals to the water as directed.
7. Always store chemicals in a cool, dry place.
MAINTAINING THE PROPER PH BALANCE
The pH factor is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity in the water. It is measured on a scale of 1 to 14.
Pure water has a value of 7, which is neutral. Any
value above 7 is alkaline, and any value below 7 is
acidic. You should maintain a slightly alkaline pH
level, between 7.2 and 7.8, in the hydrotherapy spa.
Severe problems can occur when the pH balance is
not maintained within this range. If the pH level
exceeds 7.8, dissolved minerals can build-up and clog
the plumbing in the spa jet unit. If the pH level falls
below 7.2, the acid level in the water will begin to corrode the metal parts in the spa jet unit. Also, the sanitation agents in the water will not be effective if the pH
level is not properly maintained. Damage caused by
improper pH levels is not covered under the warranty.
To maintain the proper pH level, you should test the
pH of the water regularly. To test the water, you can
either purchase additional test strips or purchase a pH
test kit at a pool and spa supply store. The pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8. If the level is too
low, add a pH increaser (usually soda ash). If the
level is too high, add a pH reducer (usually sodium
bisulfate). Test the water again after five minutes. See
the instructions with your pH test kit for additional
information about testing and adjusting the pH.
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE ACCESS
COVER
To remove the access cover, remove the four access
cover screws from the access cover. Slide the access
cover down and pull the bottom of the access cover
away from the spa unit. Be careful not to damage
the spa shell as you remove the cover.
To replace the access cover, insert the top of the
cover under the edge of the spa shell. Slide the cover
up until the bottom of the cover will clear the trim
along the bottom of the spa unit. Slide the cover into
place and re-attach the four cover screws.
DRAINING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
The hydrotherapy spa should be drained at least four
times a year and refilled with clean water. You may
need to drain the spa more often, depending on the
user load. This must be done, because after repeated
chemical treatment, the water becomes chemically
saturated. Once this happens, additional chemical
treatment of the water is no longer effective. The spa
should also be drained if you will not be using it for
long periods of time. The spa must always be drained
before major repairs are made.
The hydrotherapy spa should always be covered
when it is empty. Note: A cover made especially
for your spa model is available as an optional purchase. Ask for Model No. PFHS61590. Direct sunlight can cause extensive damage. The surface of
the spa shell can reach temperatures as high as
150¡F in a matter of minutes if exposed to the sun
while it is empty. These high temperatures can
cause significant damage, such as blistering of
the shell surface and warping of the spa shell.
Any damage caused by sun exposure is not covered under warranty.

To drain the hydrotherapy spa, follow these steps:
1. Set the temperature control on the console to the
lowest setting.
2. Shut off the circuit breaker or GFCI.
3. Remove the access cover from the back of the
spa unit.
4. Remove the drainage hose from the spa and
attach a garden hose to the valve on the drainage
hose.
5. Open the valve by turning the knob counterclockwise. The water will begin to drain.
6. When the spa is empty, close the valve and
remove the garden hose. Return the drainage
hose to the clip and replace the access cover.
7. Refill the spa and treat the water with chemicals
(see pages 10 and 14).
DRAINING THE PUMP
After the hydrotherapy spa is drained (see DRAINING
THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA on page 14), the pump
should also be drained if the hydro-therapy spa will be
stored for more than thirty days, or if it may be
exposed to freezing temperatures.
To drain the pump,
remove the access
cover from the spa unit
(see ATTACHING AND
REMOVING THE
ACCESS COVER on
page 14). Locate the
pump inside the spa
unit. Remove the drain
plug from the pump
and allow all water to
drain from the pump.
Replace the drain plug.
WINTER USE AND CARE
The hydrotherapy spa is designed for year-round use.
If you decide to store the hydrotherapy spa for the winter, store it in a warm, dry location. Follow the steps
below to winterize the hydrotherapy spa.
1. Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE
HYDROTHERAPY SPA on the previous page and
this page).
2. Remove all remaining water from the spa shell.
Dry the spa shell with towels.
3. Set the air control on the console to the lowest
setting. Use a wet/dry vacuum to pull any remaining water from the system. To do this, place the
vacuum nozzle over each jet, starting with the
highest jet and finishing with the lowest one.
4. Set the air control on the console to the highest
setting and repeat step 3.
5. Drain the pump (see DRAINING THE PUMP on
this page). Once the water has drained from the
pump, place the vacuum nozzle over the drainage
hole in the pump and vacuum any additional water
from the pump. Note: For additional protection
you can remove the pump/motor from the spa
to store it in a climate-controlled room.
6. Clean the spa shell (see page 13).
7. Clean the filter (see page 13).
8. A qualified electrician should disconnect the power
cord from the 240 volt power source, if so wired.
9. Re-attach the access cover.

1. SYMPTOM: THE SPA WILL NOT OPERATE
a. Check to see if the GFCI breaker is tripped, or
was not turned on. Reset the GFCI breaker.
2. SYMPTOM: THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR THE
GFCI TRIPS WHILE THE SPA IS OPERATING
a. Reset the circuit breaker or the GFCI. If the cir-
cuit breaker or the GFCI trips again, contact a
qualified electrician for service.
3. SYMPTOM: THE PUMP HUMS
a. The filter may be dirty or damaged. Remove
the filter cartridge from the filter housing and
clean or replace the cartridge (see page 13).
b. The pump may have a foreign object stuck in
the impeller. Contact our customer service
department.
c. The pump may have a loose wire connection.
Contact our customer service department.
4. SYMPTOM: THE PUMP HUMS,
BUT DOES NOT ROTATE
a. The pump may be jammed. Contact our cus-
tomer service department. If your spa is no
longer under warranty, contact a local spa and
pool service provider.
5. SYMPTOM: THE PUMP IS NOISY
WHILE OPERATING
a. There may be debris in the pump. Contact our
customer service department.
b. The pump may have a bad bearing. Contact
our customer service department.
6. SYMPTOM: THE WATER DOES NOT HEAT
a. Make sure that the hydrotherapy spa is fully
covered with a spa cover. The spa cover must
be tight for the water to heat. (A cover made
especially for your spa model is available as
an optional purchase. Ask for Model No.
PFHS61590.) Set the air control to low. The
water will heat at a rate of 1.8¡F an hour with a
cover. If you are using the spa indoors, and
the room temperature is maintained at 70¡F, it
will take approximately 24 to 36 hours for the
water to reach the set temperature with a cover
installed.
b. If you are using the hydrotherapy spa outdoors,
it may take longer for the water to heat. See
the chart below for the approximate heating
time.
Air Temperature Heating Time w/Cover
70¡F
+
24 to 36 hours
50¡FÐ70¡F 2 to 3 days

b. If the water still has not heated after four days,
contact our customer service department.
7. SYMPTOM: THE WATER IS NOT BEING
CLEANED BY THE FILTER
a. Check to see if the filter is in place. Clean the
filter if it is dirty.
b. Check the chemical balance of the water. If the
pH is incorrect, the sanitizing agents will not
function properly.
8. SYMPTOM: THE WATER PULSATES OR
THERE IS MINIMUM WATER FLOW
a. Adjust the water level. This usually occurs only
when the water level is low. Add water until the
jets are covered (see step 3 on page 9).
9 SYMPTOM: THE WATER LEVEL DROPS
a. Some water loss due to evaporation is normal.
If rapid water loss occurs, or if you notice wetness on the floor around the hydrotherapy spa,
then the spa shell may have a leak. Contact
your local pool and spa service provider for
repairs.
b. A clamp or seal inside the pump compartment
may be loose. Check inside the pump compartment for excess water and watch the pump unit
while it is operating to see if water drips from
