Setting up your Coleman SaluSpa Bahamas AirJet inflatable hot tub is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:
- Choose Your Spot: Select a spot that's smooth, flat, and level. It needs to handle the weight of the filled tub, water, and people. Avoid carpet.
- Indoor Setup: If indoors, ensure good ventilation to manage humidity. Consider consulting an expert for additional ventilation if needed.
- Outdoor Setup: Place the tub near a drain to catch any spills during filling or draining. Try to avoid direct, prolonged sunlight.
- GFCI Check: Before you plug it in, test the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Press the test button—the tub shouldn't work. Then, press the reset button; it should work normally.
- Inflate the Tub: Use the included pump to inflate the hot tub. Make sure the inflation hose isn't blocked and the air valves are sealed properly. Don't use an air compressor.
- Fill with Water: Hook up a garden hose to the water inlet and fill the tub. Make sure the water is warmer than 42.8°F (6°C) to prevent an E03 error.
- Power It Up: Plug the pump into a grounded outlet. Press and hold the On/Off button on the control panel for 2 seconds to turn it on.
- Heating & Massage: Use the temperature buttons to set your desired water temperature. Press the Heat button to start the heater, and the Massage System button to turn on the jets.
- Water Care: Keep the water clean by regularly cleaning or replacing the filter cartridges. Use pool chemicals to maintain the water chemistry. A local pool supply store can provide guidance.
- Storing the Tub: When you're done, drain the hot tub completely and let it dry. Clean the spa, deflate it using the deflation function, and store it in a warm, dry place.
