Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance Schedule
The whirlpool requires regular maintenance. Set up and
follow a maintenance schedule. The table at right
represents minimum intervals for maintenance.
When using maintenance products, follow the
manufacturers' directions and read the manufacturer's
MSDS, Material Safety Data Sheets. You can purchase a
recommended disinfectant from Whitehall Customer
Service (Back of Manual) or your Whitehall distributor.
Maintenance Procedures
Motor:
Motors are equipped with sealed greased ball bearings
that do not require lubrication. Vent holes in the motor and
motor cover shell must be cleaned periodically to allow
free air flow and prevent overheating.
Hard Water:
The mineral properties of hard water, if allowed to build up
over a period of time, have the potential for creating
damage to the moving parts of the turbine assembly. We
recommend the installation of a water softener or if that is
not possible, the use of a water softening agent.
Note: The thermometer gauges temperatures from 40° to
140° F. Do not allow temperatures to exceed 140° to avoid
damaging the thermometer.
To recalibrate: Immerse the stem a minimum of 4" into the
water turn on the turbine assembly and another accurate
temperature gauge to compare and use the external
adjustment screw provided a on the thermometer casing
as indicated.
