• Ozone: Most ozone generators are designed to be maintenance free,
however, an inspection should be made of the in-line check valve to
ensure it continues to stop water from flowing back into the unit. You
may also inspect the lamp operation on ultraviolet (UV) ozonators by
viewing their light source at night from the box while the filter pump is
running.
• GFCI Breaker: Weekly testing of the Ground Fault Interrupter (GFCI)
is recommended by the manufacturer. Testing takes only a few
seconds, however, the system timeclock and time of day may need to
be reset after testing.
• Pad: Make sure your equipment area is not trapping water that can
puddle around these appliances.
5. Cleaning Procedure for Rotating Jets
If you experience a sticky rotational jet, perform the following cleaning
procedure. In most of these cases debris is present in the jet bearings
and must be cleared to achieve proper operation.
Procedure
1. Remove jet internal from hot tub wall fitting by placing your hand
around the outer jet adjustment ring and rotating it counterclockwise
(fig. 1). Rotate jet adjustment ring until it stops at position (A). Use
additional force at position (A) to continue rotation until you feel a
"click" at position (B); then feel the internal release at position (C). It
may seem like your are overtorquing the jet internal between
positions (A-B), however, additional force is necessary at position (A)
to unlatch its retaining mechanism from the wall fitting.
2. Fill a clean bucket with tap water and immerse jet internal. Rotate
submersed jet internal's nozzle in a circular motion while moving it
back and forth allowing water to flow through both ends of the jet.
This motion allows slow moving water to wash back through the jet
bearing and dislodge any debris that might be lodged in the bearing.
Clean each jet internal for approximately 1 to 2 minutes twice a year,
or when a particular jets rotation appears sluggish, jerky, or
obstructed.
