Soak your regular filter elements overnight in a container with spa Filter Cleaner and then rinse
with clean water. For best results, allow the filter to dry before re-inserting. (The Eco Pur
element should never be cleaned in a filter cleaner. Just rinse with water.) When cleaning filters, be
sure to never have the pumps (including the circulation pump) running without the filters in place.
Failure to do so may result in debris being drawn into the pumps causing unwarranted damage.
See the "clean your filter elements" in the maintenance section of this manual for more information.
