Pump it up! | Draining and refilling a hot tub using a Superior Pump submersible pump

Here's how I saved 2 hours draining and refilling this 390-gallon hot tub using a Superior Pump 1/4 hp pump. Shows the full steps to drain and refill, and how much time I saved, vs. draining using gravity.

I know you said it won't pump all the water out, but how low does it pump down to?

[@jpfath]

It's pretty low; I think the spec says 1/4 of an inch, and that seems about correct. It's just that if you want it bone-dry, you'll need a sponge or something else to dry it. You can also use the drains in the hot tub to drain out the last bits, once the pump has done the bulk of the work. Also, in this particular hot tub, there are some curved seat sections that retain some water, so I used the sponge on those too.
