HOW TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF YOUR HOT TUB
There are some simple steps you can take to prolong the life of your hot
tub. Please follow the guidelines listed below to ensure the most trouble free
and enjoyable use of your spa.
Rinse your feet
Please remember to rinse your feet before getting into the hot tub. This will
help prevent sand and dirt from entering the plumbing system where it can
clog valves and filters.
Use a suction sock
Please also use a suction sock to further reduce the amount of debris that
can enter the plumbing system.
Maintain your valves
If one of your valves begins to feel hard to turn, please remove the valve
and rinse it. To remove the valve, please turn the power off to the spa
and remove the handle for the valve. Turn the top portion of the valve cap
counter clockwise to expose the valve insert. Using the valve stem, please
pull straight up on the insert. Rinse the valve and put back the insert into the
sleeve and then replace the cap and handle. If the valve is scratched, it is
a good idea to use a fine grit sand paper to smooth the valve insert before
reinstallation.
Keep the cover on
Always keep your hot tub cover closed when the spa is not in use. This
helps prevent unwanted debris from entering the hot tub and prevents sun
exposure that could damage the surface and the jets of the hot tub. For full
warranty coverage, please note the spa must remain covered at all times
when not in use.
Keep the water clear and balanced
Water chemistry is another important part of spa ownership. Please be sure
to use only factory recommended products. In addition, please make sure
you maintain proper pH and sanitizer levels. Drain and refill your hot tub with
fresh water every 3 to 4 months. On a regular basis, please use a spa vacu-
um to remove dirt and sand that can be seen on the floor of the hot tub.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Removing Debris
Remove any debris and leaves from the Vortex skimmers and suction
guard(s) on the inside of the spa. Blocked intakes can impede the flow of
water through the jetting system.
Water Level
Replenish the water level if necessary so that it is approximately two-thirds up
the Vortex skimmer opening. (See STARTING YOUR SPA.) Low and high water
levels can damage your spa. It is important to check your water level often.

MARQUIS SP A MAINTE NANCE MONTHLY MAINTENANCE Filter Care We cannot stress enough the importance of a clean filter for proper water fil- tration. Dirty filters can restrict water flow, cause hazy water, and prevent your chemicals from working properly. Dirty filters can also cause low flow from jets, poor water clarity and sensors to activate error codes. - Page 3 MARQUIS SP A MAINTE NANCE EVERY THREE TO FOUR MONTHS Draining and Filling the Spa The average spa needs to be drained every three to four months. After months of continually adding chemicals to the water and introducing body oils and lotions, the water can be difficult to manage and chemicals are not as effective as usual.

Fading, staining and discoloration may also occur but represent no structural degradation and are not covered under warranty. NOTE: Do not leave an empty spa uncovered. Direct sunlight on the spa surface can cause severe damage or blemishing, cause fittings to discolor and can result in the voiding of any surface warranties. -
