My wife and I just bought a house, and out back is an older-looking Leisure Bay hot tub (no idea which model, even after browsing their site) We had the realtor run through all the systems to make sure it works (former owners now live in Nevada) and everything is good

except

we want to drain the tub and put new water in, but I can't find the drain anywhere. All the manuals on LB's site show the drain being in the same place on all models, but I'm just not seeing it, so...

anyone know where it might be hidden or an alternative way to drain the tub?

Thanks!

The drain isn't on the outside on earlier models.

Open the cabinet door. There may be 1 or more spigots inside that you need to open to drain it. You will have to LOOK HARD for them. They're there.

Leisure Bay/Haughes has been making spas for more than 25 years so there's a lot that you won't find on the internet about them. Especially on the factory site.

Siphon the water out- you'll be able to get more out, and likely quicker.
