:roll: HI, I have aquired a Wild Water used spa- my first spa and need help with what the simple controls do. (see attached photos)

1. Where does the clear tube with a push button, (on left) connect to under the spa and what does it do?

2. There is a screw out knob, (on right), that looks like some kind of air vent. Does this adjust jet force?

Center button is for light.

Thanks! ~Jana

The tube appears to be for the ligh tranformer right next to it, there should be a small nipple sticking out of that white box to attach the tube to, that will allow your button to activate and deactivate the light. The knob is for air flow to the jets when the jets are running.

Thanks. I actually found a small black nipple coming out of the control/motor box that the clear tube attachs to, so I am thinking it activates jets or ?? (It's the far left button.)

The light is attached by wires to the center button and the white box which plugs into the control box.

I guess I will found out once I get it wired to the house & test it- more of a project than I thought. I was told it needs it's own 220v circuit from the main box, that 110v from the house wouldn't be enough amps to start everything up. Do you have any knowledge about this?

Thanks again, Jana

It really depends on the control system and the pump and the blower requirements...either way 220V is the reccomended and most efficient way to go.
