How to Open a Hot Tub Spa. First of all, please realize that most damage that occurs to hot tub spas is caused by improper winterization or when the spa is not used for long periods of time. When it comes time to open up your spa, this is when these problems will become evident. While it is strongly recommended to have a pool or spa professional close your spa for the winter, many homeowners do successfully tackle the job of spa opening themselves. It is much less risky!

Basic Pool or Spa Plumbing Systems. To understand the basic plumbing system of a pool or spa, you must follow the path of the water. The water from the pool or spa, not both at the same time, enters the equipment system through a main drain on the floor, through a surface skimmer, or through a combination of both main drain and skimmer. It travels to a three-port valve (if there is no spa, there will be no such valve) and into the pump, which is driven by the attached motor. From the pump, the water travels through a filter, then to the heater, and back through three-port valves to the pool or spa return lines.

Pool and Spa Basic Electricity. Electricity is responsible for running pumps and motors, ignites gas heaters, and operates controls. When major renovation or installation of electrical circuits is required, call a professional electrician and subcontract the job. When troubleshooting short circuits or other specialized electrical problems, an electrician will solve and repair it faster than you can, so again, call a professional and let him do his job.
