Place the spa on an approved surface and have it properly wired by a licensed electrician.
For DURA-LAST™ models, remove exterior spa panels by inserting a flathead screwdriver at bottom edge of the panel and prying it out. For ULTRA-TEC models, remove screws that hold the side panels in place. For Durasport models, unlock and open the access door.
Make sure white plumbing unions are secure and did not loosen during shipping. There will be 4 unions on a 1-pump spa and 6 unions on a 2-pump spa. Hand-tighten any loose unions.
Open all gate valves in the equipment area. Before operation, these valves must be in the UP/OPEN position and have plastic clips inserted. Never run the spa with the gate valves closed or without water circulating for any period of time.
Remove the filter(s) (and wire and basket, if equipped) from the filter chamber.
Fill the hot tub with a garden hose using cold water until reaching the fill line, which is normally 2 inches above the highest jet.
Once the water is at the correct level and air is bled, turn on the power at the GFCI breaker. When the power is turned on, the controls will per¬form a diagnostic check for a few minutes. When complete, the spa will automatically operate at filter speed and continue heating until water reaches 100ºF.
If water does not flow from the jets when the pump is running, there could be an air pocket. See the “Priming the Pump” section below for methods of removing air pockets from the pump(s).
Install the filter(s) (and weir and basket, if equipped) into the filter chamber.
Turn the spa on and wait for PR (Priming Mode) to appear on the topside display.
Turn off power at the breaker.
Remove the hot tub panel closest to the pump.
Loosen the white pressure union on the top of the pump by hand or with a strap wrench. When air is bled out, tighten the union, turn the breaker on and set the pump on high speed. NOTE: If you press the “Temp” button any time during Priming Mode, it will exit that mode and begin Standard Mode.
