Regular Maintenance
66
Thermal Cover Care
Always use the locking thermal cover when not in use to reduce heat-up time, operating costs and keep unwanted out. To
prolong the life of the cover, handle it with care and clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic treatments with a vinyl
conditioner will help protect against deterioration caused by UV rays from the sun. Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover,
and avoid dragging it across rough surfaces. Be sure to lock all straps when not in use for safety and to prevent wind damage. Keep
cover open at least 15 minutes after adding chemicals.
EverPure™ Ozone Care
The ozone hose and check valve connection between the ozone generator and ozone injector should be inspected or replaced, if
necessary, annually. The air quality pulled into the generator may cause rapid wear on the hose and check valve. The EverLite™
will light green when the ozone generator is operating (during the filtration cycle) indicating the EverPure™ system is indeed
sanitizing the water.
Plumbing Care
Hot tubs are plumbed with plastic jets, pipes and fittings which are glued together. These plastic parts and their many glue
joints are subjected to harsh treatment with years of operation, subjected to many hot-cold cycles and the high pressure
generated by the powerful jet pump stressing pipes and joints. Although the factory has a rigorous testing procedure, even
transportation from the factory to you can cause vibration and possible loosening of the joints.
Should a leak occur, remove that appropriate section of cabinet wall exposing the leaking area. Drain the hot tub to below the leak
and contact a qualified technician for repair.
Filter Cartridge Care
Hot tub water filtration begins as soon as the flow is steady through the pump. As the filter cartridge removes dirt from the water,
the accumulated debris will cause a resistance to flow. When this is noticed, along with cloudy water, clean or replace the filter
element as noted below. This generally occurs monthly depending upon use and water care.
PowerFlo™ System: (Luxury and Premium Series)
1. Shut off power at the main or sub panel.
2. Open the small, black bleeder valve on top of the filter cover slightly to release pressure. (Be sure to re-close the valve snugly
before reactivating the spa. Do not overtighten, there is a risk of cracking.)
3. Remove the black lock ring. Lift the dome lid and remove the filter element. Clean any debris from the filter housing. Soak the
filter element in a non-sudsing filter cleansing solution.
4. Rinse the filter element with a garden hose or pressure hose, and replace in the filter housing. (It is recommended to have an
extra filter cartridge on hand so that a clean element will always be available while the soiled element is being cleaned. This will
minimize downtime of the spa during the cleaning procedure.) When replacing the element into the housing, be sure that the o-ring
is in place and clear to assure a snug fit of the filter dome lid to prevent leakage. Hand tighten the lock ring until snug and locking tab
engages. Do not overtighten, there is a risk of cracking. Re-check bleeder valve to be sure it is closed.
Pristine™ System: (Lifestyle Series)
1. Shut off power at the main or sub panel.
2. Remove the filter housing top by using the raised portions of the filter top and turning it counter clockwise. After top
stops turning, lift up to remove top from filter.
3. Lift the skimmer basket out of the filter canister.
4. Remove the filter from the canister.
5. Replace with clean filter ( Review above for cleaning recommendations.)
6. Place skimmer basket back in filter canister.
7. Place filter top onto filter canister and turn clockwise until top stops.
Hot Tub Acrylic Surface Care
To preserve the sheen of the acrylic surface, clean and sanitize with clean water to remove any particles and use rubbing alcohol
or a non-abrasive, non-sudsing cleaner to wipe clean. Use a soft, lint free cloth and never use an aggressive solvent such as a
lacquer thinner or acetone which will cause damage to the acrylic. Prolonged sun exposure could damage the acrylic surface due
to it's capacity to absorb heat. Do not leave the hot tub exposed to the sun without adequate protection when not in use. Any
damage as a result to adhere to these guidelines will void the warranty.
