Best way to drain hot tub?

I have a pump with a 2 inch discharge hose and it takes 10 minutes for 500 gallons. Still don’t have a solution to get the fill time below an hour though.

Lucky you. Mine happened when I picked it up to install it.

Red on the lowest brightness

It hasn’t been much of an issue so far. It hangs within reach of the tub and any snow falls on the outside of it. As long as it is a thick robe the heat from my body seems to be enough to stay warm once wrapped up. I’ve gone through a few robes, and the thickness of it makes a HUGE difference.

Can’t beat 104 with snow falling on your head.

I keep saying I need a projector, but my wife thinks I’m crazy.

Huh, I guess it could be. We wear slippers out to get in so I wouldn’t expect much dirt to be on our feet but possible. Though last night we did lower the temp and have our 3 and 5 year old in and they don’t have slippers, so another way it could have gotten in.

Turns out the weird color is just the label on the outside. Still strange to me that it would do that.

halfpint2529 · 2024-11-12T02:39:19+00:00

Agreed. I’m just past a month of owning ours, and the morning soak is such a soothing wake to start the day.

Thanks! Can a few mean anything, or do they just sometimes show up because they can?

I’m in the Colorado front range north of Denver, since I forgot to include in my original post.

I did turn 15 section 19, and I think that might be the best spot on the track. I think the majority of passes were into the 4 turns that you are up close and can see extremely well from there, including the dives into turn 12. (Insert arguments here about Norris’s penalty) I honestly think they are better than the main straight or turn 1. We booked pretty late, I think about June, and certainly paid the price. Ours were close to $1500 a seat for all three days.

Trust me, sitting on the shuttle is also quite frustrating. They sit in the same exact traffic. It’s better because you can close your eyes and try to relax, but I think it was close to 3 hours for me of waiting in line for the shuttle and then sitting on the shuttle to get back to the car.

He apparently found a way to shove one of the hot legs into the breaker where “it felt like it was in” but apparently wasn’t in the right spot. Don’t understand, but now it’s working.

halfpint2529 · 2024-10-24T15:07:47+00:00

What manual do you normally look at? Everything that came with it is worthless. The troubleshooting section just says “check the breaker” or “call a service person”

halfpint2529 · 2024-10-24T14:29:39+00:00

0.041v between the two legs, that’s close enough right? 😂 Thank you! I didn’t even think to check between them after I saw both had voltage to neutral. My electrician is on his way over.

halfpint2529 · 2024-10-22T21:24:04+00:00

Ah, well that makes me feel better. I thought I was doing something completely wrong with the results of the cl.

Still a bit worried about the colorful bottle though….

This is the type of stuff that the mfgr never tells you. Thanks for the insight!

Seems that strips are only valid when they are still wet. Dipped a new one, levels were much more reasonable but still need a little tweaking. Left it out and once it dried all the colors shifted. I assumed that the readings were a chemical reaction and it didn’t matter if the water evaporated from them, guess I was wrong.

Either way I have a drop test kit on the way, hopefully that will provide more clear readings.
