SPA MAINTENANCE
FILTER CARTRIDGE
MAINTENANCE
At least once a week, check and clean the
skimmer basket and weir to ensure proper
filter flow. Remove leaves, foreign matter,
and debris. It is very important to keep your
spa filter cartridge clean and free of particles
to ensure proper water flow. A clean filter
permits the hydrotherapy system to function
properly and also allows more efficient filter
cycles. Depending on how frequently your
spa is used, we recommend cleaning the spa
filter cartridge every four weeks. If this is not
done, the filter may clog and restrict water
flow, which causes improper filtration and
poor jet performance.
IMPORTANT:
The frequency and duration
of use, and the number of occupants all
contribute to determining the appropriate time
between filter cleanings. More use means
that more frequent filter cleanings will be
required.
FILTER CARTRIDGE REMOVAL AND
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Press Mode button for 8+ second to OFF.
2. Pull out the basket and weir.
Carefully unscrew the filter cartridge and
bring it out of the spa.
3. Always clean the filter using a filter
degreaser to remove mineral and oil
build-up. Soak the filter in the degreaser
(according to the package directions).
Then place the filter on a clean surface
and, using a garden hose, spray until it is
clean. It may be necessary to rotate the
filter while spraying to remove any debris
lodged between the filter pleats.
4. Replace the cartridge in the spa.
5. Lower the basket and weir over filter.
6. Turn on power by pressing jets button.
CAUTION!
Always use proper eye protection
when using chemicals, or high-pressure
water. Read instructions on cleaning
products and follow applicable safety and
warning instructions listed on label.
CAUTION!
Never scrub the filter cartridge
with a brush, as this will cause the filter to
wear out and come apart. Never let the spa
pump run without a filter cartridge in the
skimmer compartment. Running the spa
without a filter cartridge may permit debris to
enter the spa plumbing and void the warranty!
