Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining); Cleaning The Cover, Shell And Pillows - CalSpas Portable Spas Manual Del Propietário

Winterizing (Cold Climate
Draining)
In many areas, the temperature drops below 0°C. We
recommend that you always have your spa full of water
and running at normal spa temperatures (26.7°C to
37.8°C). This will help reduce the risk of freezing in
your spa and your spa's equipment.
Warning: If you find the need to drain your spa, please
be aware of the potential of freezing in your spas
equipment and plumbing. Even if the directions below
are followed perfectly, there is no guarantee that your
spa will not suffer freeze damage.
Freeze damage is not covered by your warranty.
1. Open all filter covers.
2. Remove the filter baskets and filters.
3. Drain your spa completely as described in the
instructions above.
4. Remove drain plugs from the front of the pumps.
5. Disconnect the unions from both sides of the
pump.
6. Use a wet/dry vacuum to blow any remaining
water out of the jets and equipment area.
Cover your spa with a good spa cover and an all-
weather tarp to ensure that neither rain nor snow
enters the spa.

Cleaning the Cover, Shell and
Pillows
Due to the constant punishment your spa cover
and pillows receive, you should protect them by
applying Vinyl and Leather Cleaner as part of your
monthly maintenance plan. Vinyl and Leather Cleaner
is specifically designed to protect spa covers and
pillows from chemical and ultraviolet light damage.
It accomplishes this without leaving an oily residue
behind that is normally associated with common
automotive vinyl protectants.
Use of Vinyl and Leather Cleaner
Vinyl and Leather Cleaner should be used sparingly.
Incorrect usage may cause water clarity issues.
Spa Covers
1. Remove spa cover from spa.
2. Allow spa cover to dry completely.
3. Spray Vinyl and Leather Cleaner to cover evenly
and wipe dry.
4. Allow spa cover to dry completely.
5. Reinstall cover on spa.
Pillows
6. Wipe pillows dry with a soft cloth.
7. Carefully spray Vinyl and Leather Cleaner directly
onto pillow.
8. Wipe pillows dry.
9. Allow pillows to dry completely.
Warning: Do not use automotive vinyl protectants on
spa covers or pillows. These products are generally
oil-based and will cause severe water clarity issues
that are difficult to correct.
