Can I leave my spa empty if I'm not using it?

We firmly recommend that you never leave your spa empty for a period of two weeks or more. Leaving your spa empty can cause damage to the pumps, heater element and shell.

In most cases you are better off turning the temperature of your spa down to the minimum setting and maintaining your pH and alkalinity levels to ensure they stay within recommended readings.
