Note: The Stage 2 filter cartridge cannot be
cleaned and must be (thrown out) replaced
every 3 months, or as needed. Note: Remove and clean the Stage 1
filter cartridge once a month.
Periodically, the polyester mesh (pleated) filter will need a more thor -
ough cleaning to remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this, we
suggest cleaning as illustrated above (step D), followed by soaking the
filter overnight in a plastic container filled with a solution of water and a
specially formulated filter cleanser available from your Sundance dealer.
CAUTION! Never scrub the polyester mesh filter cartridge
with a brush as this will cause the polyester mesh to wear
out and come apart. Never let the spa pump run or have
a filter cycle come on without a filter cartridge in the skim -
mer compartment. Running the spa without a filter cartridge
may permit debris to enter the spa plumbing and void the
warranty!
