MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
Your spa requires periodic draining and cleaning to ensure a safe, healthy environment. It is recommended
that you clean your spa at least every 180 days. Heavy bather load will require cleaning it more often.

The filter elements are one of the most important components of your spa. Not only are they
essential for clean water, but they also extend the life of the spa equipment. Your filter elements
should be cleaned on a regular basis, once a month on average with normal usage. With heavy
use the filters may need to be cleaned more often.
• Turn off the spa before servicing filters. Never leave to the spa running when removing the filters.
Debris can be pulled into the plumbing system and cause unwarranted damage.
• Remove filter element(s).
• With a garden hose, spray each element under pressure. Periodically, the elements need to
be soaked in a filter cleaner compound. Check with your dealer for details on cleaning and/or
filter replacement recommendations.
• Replace filter elements.
• Be sure water level is adequate.
• Turn spa on.
caRe Of yOUR Spa pILLOWS
• Your spa pillows need to be rinsed periodically to remove any chemical residue. This should help to
eliminate pillows becoming stiff and discolored.
• If spa is not to be used for a period of time, pillows should be removed. Pillow life will be extended.
• Always leave the cover open for 15 minutes in order to prevent off gas from damaging your spa
pillows, cover and other critical parts. Signs of off gas damage include but are not limited to pillows
peeling and bubbling, cover failing prematurely, plastics failing, etc.
