You will see the pump motor, and maybe on top of that will be the heating element with a control knob on it. If thats the case, turn the knob clockwise. There also may be a reset switch located somewhere on the heater as well. Just look around under there, you should find it somewhere.

This is probably the best thing to do. Excess skin, hair and body products, soap from and swimsuits, food or drink spilled in the water, animals, mould, fungus or algae growing in the water, all common causes, all need your hot tub to be drained to fix properly.

But you don't need to heat it either. Draining it may cause problems with the filters and pipes. It would be best to simply turn the temp down. If you are in an area prone to freezing you may want to keep an eye on it. Once a week check the water level and every other week do a chem check. Leave it covered. If the pump is on a timer and not controled by the thermostat then see if you can reprogram it to once a day or two. If not, turn it off. Run it once in a while. No reason for it to run every hour.

They would know a lot more about the model of the spa and whether or not it's safe. Go to the spa dealer or another reputable spa dealer and ask them how it would work.

I'm not sure that salt would help that much. You could add a filtration system utilizing diatamatious earth and UV lights to lessen your dependance on chlorine.
