PUMP MAINTENANCE
BARREL UNION MAINTENANCE
You should check the pumps inside your spa pool on a regular basis to ensure
they are operating as efficiently as possible and there is no leaking or corrosion
occurring. Issues with pumps, particularly seal corrosion, is generally caused by
incorrect pH and alkalinity levels or excessive dosage of sanitizers such as chlorine
or bromine.
Maintaining/balancing the spa pool water according to well established methods
and following the guide provided will help to avoid such issues.
How to check your pump(s)
We recommend checking the pump(s) every 3-4 months which should become
part of your drain and refill process. The number of pumps will vary per spa pool, so
check your spa pool overview page.
Open up the cabinets around the spa pool to find the pump(s). Any signs of leaking,
rust, calcium build-up or yellow/white powder type substance usually between the
plastic wet end and metal parts of the pump may indicate an issue and service may
be required. Please photograph and contact Alpine Spas.
How to check your barrel unions.
Open up the cabinets around the spa pool.
Find the pump(s) and the system controller
(this unit houses the heater) and you will see
the white barrel unions which sit at either
end of the component (pump, heater etc).
Check to see if they need to be tightened
and if so, grip and turn clock-wise to tighten.
Barrel unions are the connection piece used to join the plumbing to the pumps
and the heater. Being able to easily remove the pumps or heater is important for
servicing.
Because barrel unions are a thread fitting, they may loosen slowly over time due
to factors such as vibration (from the pump) and need to be checked periodically.
Loose barrel unions will promote leaks.
ISSUES OUTLINED ABOVE ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
