Drain the spa
The path the water takes is a drawing. The text still tells you what has to be dry afterwards.
These steps are from the 2025 Bestway AirJet manual 303021379874 and the 2025 HydroJet manual 303021371869. Both name pump models S100202, S200202, S300202, S400202. Marketing names such as Paris or Miami are not in these manuals. A 2020 edition states the cold and hot alarms differently, so the temperatures on this page are only for the 2025 manuals.
Before any water leaves
Unplug the pump.
When you take the pump off the liner, screw the cap on and fit the stoppers on the debris screens so water does not run out of the pipes.
Follow the drain drawing in the manual. This page does not redraw it. When the spa is empty, clean the filter.
Pumps named in these manuals: S100202, S200202, S300202, S400202

-
Unplug and cap the pipes
Unplug first. Screw the cap on and install the stoppers on the debris screens before the pump comes off the liner.
-
Drain from the drawing
Both manuals say to drain by following the drawings, and that the drawings may not match your product one for one. Use the drawing in your manual.
-
Wash the walls, then dry all of it
Soap and water on the walls, then rinse. No hard brushes and no abrasive cleaners. After draining, water can remain in the pump, the liner chamber, the massage chain, and the inflatable cover. All of those have to be completely dry. Water in the liner chamber and the cover comes from humidity in the air used to inflate them. Drying is also a drawing in the manual.

Questions
Where is the drain plug?
The manuals point to a drawing and do not name a plug position in the text we checked. This page does not guess a location.
Why is the cover wet after I empty the spa?
The manuals say water inside the liner chamber and the inflatable cover comes from humidity in the inflation air. It still has to be completely dry before storage, or mold can damage the liner.
