Cleaning / Replacing Filter Cartridge

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Unplug the pump before beginning spa 

maintenance. Note: A dirty filter cartridge may contaminate the spa water and cause 

damage to the heating function.

1. Carefully thread the three plastic caps onto the inlet/outlet ports on inner spa wall.

2. Unscrew filter housing lid by turning it counter-clockwise, then remove the filter 

 cartridge.

3. Rinse off filter cartridge with water and reuse if possible. Replace filter 

  if the cartridge remains dirty after rinsing or is badly discoloured.

4. Put the cleaned filter back into the cartridge housing and close the lid by  

 

 

  turning it clockwise.

5. Remove caps from inlet/outlet ports on inner spa wall and allow water to  

 

 

  flow into pump. Tub is now ready for use. 

Part 5 

WATER MAINTENANCE

The filter cartridge should be cleaned weekly and replaced every two months or depending on use. 

Change water once a month or depending on use and use appropriate spa chemicals. Please pay 

attention to the chemicals used and dosage. Spa damage resulting from misuse of chemicals is 

not covered by the warranty.

Water Balance: We recommend you maintain your water balance: PH value: 7.2 - 7.6;  Free 

Chlorine: 2ppm - 3ppm. Use test kit to test your spa water before each use of the spa, or at least 

once per week. 

Water Sanitation: We suggest using chlorine or bromine granules to disinfect the spa’s water.   

Never add tablets freely to spa water; a floating dispenser is recommended.  

Cleaning the Spa: Clean the spa with soap and water, then rinse. Leave it outside (away from 

direct sunlight) to dry.

Repairs: Small holes or punctures can be repaired with the repair kit that comes with the spa (glue 

not included)
