REGULAR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
NOTE: These maintenance procedures are the responsibility of the spa owner to perform. These
procedures are not covered by the spa warranty.
SPA SURFACE CARE
• Clean the spa shell, jets and other controls with a soft cloth and spa shell cleaner to help remove
residue and buildup on the shell surface. For mineral based buildup, white vinegar or mild scale
remover product may be necessary to use with a soft cloth for removal. Consult with your local
Master Spas dealer for proper spa cleaning products.
• Rinse the cleaned surfaces with fresh water from your garden hose and wipe with soft cloth as
doing so to help remove residual cleaning agents as some may cause foaming to occur in the
water once refilled.
• Always use an approved insulating spa cover by Master Spas to cover your spa when not in
use, especially in outdoor installations where the spa is exposed to weather conditions and sun.
Constant, prolonged exposure and use of unapproved or non-insulating spa cover can result in
damage to spa surface which would not be warranted.
CLEAN YOUR FILTER ELEMENTS
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, at least once a month on average with normal usage. With
heavy use, poor water quality and/or high dissolved solid content in water; 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. Monthly, the standard filter elements
should be soaked in a filter cleaner. Do not soak EcoPur
®
EcoPur filters should only be rinsed with fresh, clean water as necessary. Check with your
Master Spas dealer for details on cleaning and/or filter replacement recommendations.
®
• The EcoPur Mineral filter should be replaced every 6 months. The standard filter should be
cleaned regularly and will typically last approximately 1 year. Bather load, usage and water
quality will effect the longevity of the filters and require more frequent cleaning or replacement.
