  • Page 47: Maintaining Your Spa

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA DRAINING YOUR SPA Your spa needs to be drained, cleaned, waxed, and refilled about every six months. More frequent water changes may be necessary if bather load is heavy. A hose bib has been provided to assist you in draining your spa.

  • Page 48: Jet Care

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA JET CARE We recommend that you clean your jets when you drain your spa. 1) Spray jet inserts with a mixture of 1 part vinegar to two parts warm water and let soak for 10 - 15 minutes. Periodically rotate the spinner nozzle to break up residue in the jets.

  • Page 49: Removing, Installing And Cleaning Filters

    6) We recommend the use of a quality filter soak product. Please con- tact your dealer to purchase all your spa care products. NOTE: Only use Artesian Spas approved filters. Using a Non Ar- tesian Spa approved filter can cause issues with circulation and heater, using a non Artesian Spa filter can void warranty cover- age.

  • Page 50: Winterizing Your Spa

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA WINTERIZING YOUR SPA It is not recommended that you drain your spa completely during freez- ing conditions. We recommend that you leave your spa full of water with the power on to keep the tub from freezing. If you decide to drain your spa during freezing conditions, contact your dealer for help.

  • Page 51: Cover Care

    MAINTAINING YOUR SPA COVER CARE Cleaning of your spa cover is an important part of routine maintenance. Dirt acts as an abrasive to the vinyl topcoat, and can also cause wear to folds, seams and stitching. Mildew growing on damp, dirty vinyl will begin to actually rot in the fabric, accelerating failure.
  • Page 52 MAINTAINING YOUR SPA CHEMICAL TREATMENT OF WATER As the levels of the residues combine with other types of residue, such as body oil and detergents, your water becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. Because of this residual effect, at some point it becomes easier and more cost-effective to drain, clean and refill your spa with new water.
