Maintenance

Prior to performing any maintenance, always unplug the UVinex™ system. Use caution
when removing or replacing bulbs.
Every Three Months:
The coated bulb should be wiped with a clean cloth & rinsed with clean water.
Annually or As Needed:
Replace UVinex™ bulb every 12 months for optimal water clarity.
Winterizing
Allowing the UVinex™ system to freeze can result in breakage to the bulb.

until Spring when the water temperature rises to 40F or higher consistently.
To Winterize UV:
1.
Disconnect electrical connections.
2. Remove the UV from the Skimmerfilter®.
3.
Dry UV unit thoroughly and clean bulb.
4.
