MAINTENANCE

WINTERIZING THE SYSTEM :

During the winter season, it is possible to partially drain your swimming pool and disable the pool equipment, but still be able to use your spa.

Consult a qualified service company to drain the pool, and protect the plumbing from freeze damage.

The following procedures will disable the pool equipment :

1. At the Remote control, turn the SPA Switch to “SPA” position.

2. Unplug cables from Valve Actuators.

3. At the Remote Control, turn the SPA Switch back to “POOL” position.

4. At the Power Center, turn FILTER PUMP Service Switch to the “OFF” position.

NOTE : If daily spa filtration is required, the FILTER TIMER Dial should be programmed accordingly.

A Recirculating Freeze Sensor (model FPS-C) may have been added to your system. It protects the plumbing and equipment from possible freeze damage, by running the filter pump whenever the temperature falls to approximately 41° F. In this instance, it will not be necessary to have the swimming pool drained. It is, however, recommended that all freeze sensors be tested by an authorized Serviceperson before the onset of the winter season.

Testing can be accomplished by placing sensor in a glass of ice water, and turning FILTER PUMP Service Switch to the “OFF” position. If the sensor is functioning correctly, the filter pump should turn on within ten minutes.

Repeat this test for any Auxiliary Freeze Sensors (model FPS-AUX) which may have been added for the jet pump or auxiliary equipment.

CLEANING THE SPA :

It is possible to empty your spa for cleaning and maintenance purposes, and then to refill with clean water from your pool.

At the Power Center :

1. Set the SPA SERVICE Switch to “DRAIN” position.

2. Set the FILTER PUMP Service Switch to “ON” position. The spa will begin

to drain into the pool.

3. Before the spa has drained completely, set the FILTER PUMP Service Switch

to “OFF” position. Do not drain the spa completely or prime will be lost.

4. When cleaning or spa maintenance is complete, set the SPA SERVICE Switch to “FILL” position and the FILTER PUMP Service Switch to “ON” position. The spa will begin to fill with clean water from the pool.

5. When water level in the spa has returned to normal, return the SPA SERVICE Switch to “AUTO” position and the FILTER PUMP Service Switch to “TIMER” position.

CAUTION : Do NOT leave equipment unattended when draining or filling the spa.
