11.0 Spa Maintenance
Regular maintenance of your spa will help it retain its beauty and per-
formance. Your authorized Sundance dealer can supply you with all the
information, supplies, and accessory products you will need to accom-
plish this.
11.1 Cleaning The Filter Cartridges
Your spa is equipped with two filter
cartridges which are utilized as
follows:
•
Models equipped with the optional
24-hour circulation pump use
cartridge 1 for the circulation pump and
cartridge 2 for jets pump 1.
•
Spas not equipped with the optional
24-hour circulation pump use
both filter cartridges for jets pump 1.
During spa use or an automatic filter cycle, water flows through the spa
skimmer and into both polyester mesh filter cartridges to trap suspended
particles and oils on their surface pleats. To ensure optimum perfor-
mance, it is necessary to remove and clean both filter cartridges once a
month or sooner depending on spa use and water quality.
Cleaning Procedure:
1. Turn off power to the spa at the home's breaker panel or select
the L1 "Lock Out" mode (page 23-24) to disable all spa
functions.
2. Remove filter lid from filter bay as shown, then remove each filter
cartridge by rotating it counterclockwise and gently lifting upward
after unthreading it from the mating wall fitting.
3. Using a garden hose and high pressure nozzle, rinse debris from
each filter's outer pleats. Start at the top near the handle and work
your way downward until all filter pleats on both filters are clean.
Note: for simpliity, work on one section at a time until the entire filter
surface is clean, then reinstall clean filters back into the spa finger tight!
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Periodically, the filter cartridge will need a more thorough cleaning to
remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this, we suggest performing
steps 1-4 above, then soaking both cartridges overnight in a plastic
container filled with a solution of water and a specially formulated filter
cleanser available from your authorized Sundance dealer. The average
