Thank you for the article. It says "A low volume water body like a spa will heat up quickly enough to not matter." So that's good news!

Here are the labeled valves. Thank you for your help!

I can definitely get a picture of the labeled valves. In the meantime, here's a picture of the underground plumbing to the valves. Does this make any sense to you?

Thank you for your reply. That was what I was thinking. Luckily, we can heat just the spa by itself. I just wasn't sure about the chemicals. We do not have a pool cover- the pool company talked us out of getting one!
