Step 2

Check the spa to ensure that it is drawing power from the breaker box. Turn off power at the breaker, wait a few moments and then turn the power back on to reset the spa.

Step 3

Fill the spa if needed to ensure that the tub contains the proper water level. Water should be at least in the middle of the spa skimmer. Clean the filter inside the skimmer to ensure that no dirt is blocking water from flowing through the spa.

Step 4

Clean all water intakes inside the spa tub. Make sure the ozonator is working and the plug is not loose.

Step 5

Increase the filtration time of the spa. Set the control panel to the normal heating mode to ensure that the water will maintain an acceptable temperature.

Step 6

Open all water valves fully to ensure that water is reaching the pump and heater. Cycle through each jet setting on the control panel to test the various operations on the spa.
