Heavy Duty Cleaning Procedure
Maintenance Instructions
For Invacare Continuing Care Group Tubs
DO NOT use this product or any available optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these
instructions and any additional instructional material such as owner's manuals, service manuals or instruction sheets supplied
with this product or optional equipment. If you are unable to understand the warnings, cautions or instructions, contact a
healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel before attempting to use this equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may
occur.
The disinfectant dispensing system has been factory tested and calibrated for use with Invacare disinfectant. The use of any disinfectant
with a dilution ratio (½ oz. per gallon) or viscosity level different than that of Invacare disinfectant will result in an improper mixture of
disinfectant and water. This may cause your system to be improperly disinfected - or in some instances, not disinfected at all. If using
any disinfectant with a dilution ratio or viscosity level different than that of Invacare disinfectant or if switching from one type of
disinfectant to another type, the disinfectant flowmeter must be calibrated before performing this procedure. Refer to the tub owner's
manual or to the calibration instruction sheet, part number 1154272, for the calibration procedure.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves, an apron and face shield protection during disinfecting, cleaning and rinsing procedures. In case of
eye or skin contact, follow procedures on disinfectant container.
NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of these types of cleaners
will make the gel-coat finish of your tub scratched and dull. NEVER use cleaners containing iodine, bromine, Betadine
methylene blue. The use of these types of cleaners will cause the tub to stain. Never use cleaners containing bleach. Use of these
types of cleaners will dry out the rubber seals and gaskets and the tub will not function properly.
Before starting the whirlpool pump, the water level must be completely above the whirlpool jets. Otherwise damage to the
motor/pump will result.
Heavy Duty Cleaning Procedure
In addition to disinfecting your tub after every use, you will need to perform this procedure
approximately once every 80‐150 baths.
1.
Clean the entire surface of the tub to remove visible tissue residue and fluid.
2.
Rinse the inside surface of the tub with the shower/massage wand on the spray setting.
3.
Rotate the water temperature valve to adjust the water temperature to approximately
o
105
F.
NOTE: This will maximize the cleaning solutionʹs ability to clean and disinfect the system.
4.
Close the drain.
5.
Make sure the whirlpool jets are open.
6.
Fill the tub one inch above the highest whirlpool jets.
7.
Add the Invacare Heavy Duty Cleaner to the water in the tub. Refer to the chart for the
proper amount.
8.
Spray pre‐mixed Invacare Heavy Duty Cleaner on the remaining surfaces.
9.
Press the whirlpool on/off button to turn on the whirlpool pump and let the pump run
for 60 seconds.
10. Turn off the pump and allow the heavy duty cleaner/water solution to remain in the tub
for 10 minutes.
11. During this ten‐minute waiting time, take a long handled brush and thoroughly scrub
all interior surfaces of the tub.
12. Open the drain to allow the heavy duty/water solution to drain from the tub.
13. Use the shower/massage wand on the pulse setting and direct the spray into both
whirlpool jets to back flush until the water discharging from the whirlpool inlet is clear.
14. Rinse the tub thoroughly with the shower wand on the spray setting.
15. Check the tub for damage and to ensure all surfaces of the tub are clean and that no
visible residue remains. If residue is found, repeat STEPS 13 and 14.
