Do all spas come with a timer function?
All MSpa models released in 2019 and onwards come with the Timer Function. You can easily set the time to wake up the spa to start heating the water. Featuring the intergrated chip, an Mspa allows users to adjust the number of hours before heater activation from 1 to 99 hours.
Do the spas have built in seats?
All MSpa models (expect TUSCANY) released in 2020 and onwards come with a cushioned floor. CAMARO/EXOTIC and all the models of URBAN/FRAME series come with integrated seat cushions to provide great comfort during periods of long use.
Is the spa comfortable and easy to get in and out of?
Known as hydrotherapy, a MSpa helps relieve the effects of Arthritis by utilising the properties of warm water in order to facilitate the improved movement of joints which are stiff, ache or are painfully swollen. The cushioning in the base of the spa is suitable for periods of extended use. All MSpa models (expect TUSCANY) released in 2020 and onwards come with a non-slip bottom providing extra friction between the foot and the spa floor. For those who suffer from arthritis or struggle to move, we recommend an MSpa Wicker Step as it can provide extra assistance and support when entering and exiting the spa.

Can I use my MSpa during winter?
It is suggested not to leave or set up your Mspa in temperatures lower than 4°C (39.2°F).
However, as long as the spa is power on, once the water temperature is lower than 1°C (33.8°F) the ANTI-ICING system will be automatically activated to heat the water up to 3°C(37.4°F). This system will prevent the water from freezing and protect the control box.If you wish to use your MSpa in winter always make sure it is protected either on a raised platform in a sheltered or covered area.
Can I leave my spa in direct sunlight?
No, do not leave your MSpa in direct sunlight as this can cause damage to its liner.

The filter cartridge should be installed to the water inlet on the inside of tub wall. Refer to the user manual to see how to correctly install a filter cartridge.

The manometer attached on the valve cap or inflation hose will show the spa inflation status. Please refer to the user manual or read instructions printed beside the air valve. Always read the manometer to ensure that the spa is filled at the proper air pressure for the conditions.
NOTE: Over-inflation can cause damage to spa liner. Complaints caused by misoperation will not be covered by the warranty.

Please refer to your user manual for specific set up information or watch our how-to videos.
How do I inflate the Inflatable Bladder (optional)?
If your spa comes with a standard inflatable bladder, check your user manual for guidance.

Maintenance
Is an MSpa easy to clean and maintain?
Our range of inflatable hot tubs are very easy to maintain and are all supplied with a user manual with maintenance instructions. You can also watch the instruction videos by visiting MSPA SUPPORT.
How much does it cost to maintain and run an inflatable hot tub?
The running costs will vary depending upon your electric tariff, the amount of usage and how well insulated the spa is from the cold. We estimate it can cost around €1 per day to run based on feedback we have from our customers.
Can I leave my spa unattended for a long period of time?
- put the top lid on to prevent raining, falling leaves, etc.
- slightly release some air to prevent over-inflation from heat or direct sunshine.
Does the spa need constant power to stay inflated?
No, an MSpa does not require the pump to be on constantly to be kept inflated. The pump can be used however at initial setup to inflate the spa in 1 to 2 minutes.
Can I add more air to the spa when it is full of water?
Yes. You can simply add air to the spa in the same way as when you initially inflated the spa until the manometer points to the GREEN section.
Can the MSpa be left out all year round?
The entire MSpa is waterproof. However, if you are expecting a very large amount of rain or bad weather it is recommended that you bring the spa indoors. Constant adverse weather conditions could damage the spa and pump and they should not be used in temperatures below 4°C.
How do I deflate and store my MSpa during the winter?
Drain and deflate the spa, clean it with a mild non-abrasive cleaner, and then rinse thoroughly. After the spa is dry, put it into the original box with all accessories.
Store the spa and accessories in a dry, temperature-controlled environment, between 0°C and 40°C (32°F - 104°F). We recommend storing the spa with desiccant.
Can I leave my spa on all the time?
How often should I change the filters?
Filters should be cleaned after every use, using running water to remove any small particles of debris. If the filters are used for too long they will get dirty and deteriorate, meaning the quality of water is not being maintained effectively. Dirty filters can also cause F1/E1 errors to appear on the pump. If you are unable to clean the filters, these should be replaced.
Safety
What electric supply do I need to run my MSpa?
You should always use a grounded socket with PRCD protection. All of our pumps come with a built-in RCD unit as a safety measure. The socket that the hot tub is being plugged into should be grounded. It's better the socket is with a waterproof cover. Or it should be placed somewhere hardly sprayed by the water from the spa.
Can I use an extension cord?
No, extension cables cannot be used with MSpa. The MSpa pumps come with a 5.1-meter cable which is usually sufficient for customers to reach their nearest grounded socket with RCD protection. If the cable is not long enough, we recommend getting a qualified electrician to install a grounded outdoor socket with RCD protection. The socket that the hot tub is being plugged into should be grounded. It's better the socket is with a waterproof cover. Or it should be placed somewhere hardly sprayed by the water from the spa.
