CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DRIFTBATH CLEANING
Before tub is used, remove all debris and clean tub. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE ACRYLIC FINISH. Use
a non-abrasive detergent and rinse well after cleaning.
• Fill the tub with HOT water to a level 2” above the highest water port.
• Add 2 teaspoons of low-sudsing automatic dishwashing detergent and no more than 4 ounces of household bleach to
the water.
• Operate tub for 10 minutes. Drain.
• Refill with cold water and operate tub for 5 minutes. Drain.
NOTE:
DO NOT USE OIL OR OIL BASED BATH ADDITIVES. If you want to use any kind of bath additive, use only a small
amount of low-foaming powder or crystal substance; the DriftBath action may intensify the foaming properties of soaps.
The use of certain bubble baths and bath additives may increase the level of accumulations of bath residue in the DriftBath
system. If excess accumulations persist, you should discontinue use of these products.
If you have followed the monthly purging instructions and still have an excess accumulation of bath residue and desire
an alternative cleaning mechanism, we recommend SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS manufactured by Stearns Packaging
Corporation to rectify this condition. This may be obtained by calling Aquatic, at (800) 945-2726. It is recommended
that you follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer with the product. Repeated use may be necessary. SUPER
SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS does not replace the necessity to purge your DriftBath system at least twice a month with a low
foaming detergent and bleach.
SURFACE CLEANING
Use common household, non-abrasive cleaners for most cleaning jobs. Rinse well and dry with a clean cloth. Never use
abrasive cleaners. Do not allow your Lucite
®
acrylic surface to come into contact with products such as acetone (nail polish
remover), nail polish, dry cleaning solution, lacquer thinners, gasoline, pine oil, etc. Remove dust with a soft, dry cloth.
Clean grease, oil, paint, and ink stains with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
SURFACE SCRATCH REMOVAL
Minor scratches may be removed by polishing your tub with a non-abrasive car polish, followed by buffing. Deeper scratches
can be removed by:
• Sanding with wet 400 grit sandpaper.
• Sanding with wet 600 grit sandpaper.
• Sanding with wet micro-grit sandpaper.
• Buffing out using car polish.
REPAIR
The installation and service of your bath should be performed only by a qualified service technician. Remember when
contacting your dealer always have your serial number, proof of purchase and model number available. This will ensure a
quick response on warranty items. The model and serial numbers are located above the pump on the backside of the tub.
NOTE:
ALL WARRANTY REPAIRS MUST BE AUTHORIZED BY AQUATIC BEFORE WORK IS STARTED. FOR SERVICE,
ALWAYS CONTACT YOUR DEALER.
CAUTION:
Care should be taken to prevent inappropriate chemicals coming in contact with the Lucite
®
acrylic surface.
Please read and observe all instructions and/or warnings on containers containing substances you contemplate applying
to your tub. Any failure to comply may void your warranty.
