How to Winterize Your Hot Tub

Your hot tub has been designed to be used year‐round and it is certainly suggested that you enjoy the many benefits of your spa purchase in any season. However, if you should decide to not use your spa during the winter months, it must be cared for properly to avoid damage. During those months of shutdown, we recommend the unit being checked periodically to assure no water is entering the unit causing potential freezing resulting in damage. 

1. Lower temperature set point to lowest setting.
2. Turn off at circuit breaker, open air controls and jets, drain completely using drain valve.
3. Remove filter cartridges and all cabinet panels to access equipment.
4. Loosen pump unions and winterizing plug from face of pump. Replace plugs after all water has been.
5. Use a wet vacuum or ‘Shop Vac’ in blowing mode to remove all water from return and suction lines.
6. Use the wet vacuum to pull all water from jets. You may choose to use a non‐toxic RV type anti‐freeze.
7. Replace all cabinet panels.
8. Cover the unit with hot tub thermal cover, lock in place to protect from snow, ice and wind.

The Importance of Proper Hot Tub Winterization

Freezing temperatures can cause serious damage to your hot tub's plumbing, pumps, and heating systems. Without proper winterization, water left in lines can freeze and expand, leading to costly repairs.

• Prevents frozen and burst pipes
• Protects pump and heater components
• Maintains manufacturer's warranty coverage
• Reduces spring startup issues
• Saves money on emergency repairs

Our winterizing service for hot tubs includes thorough system preparation that eliminates water from all components. We follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure your warranty remains valid.
