FILTER CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Filters should be cleaned at least every 4 weeks as noted below:

STEP #1: Add full strength SpaGuard Filter Cleaner and Degreaser uniformly onto elements or soak elements in a solution diluted 1 part SpaGuard Cleaner and Degreaser to 3 parts water. Light brushing may be required in areas of heavy grease accumulation. Rinse thoroughly.

STEP #2: Using rubber gloves, soak elements in a diluted acid solution to remove scale build-up. (To make acid solution, use 1 lb. pH decreaser diluted at the rate of one bottle per 5 gals of water or muriatic acid diluted 1 qt. per 5 gals water). Thoroughly flush acid solution from filter elements with a garden hose. If possible, let elements dry, and reassemble filters.

I DON'T HAVE ANY OZONE BUBBLES, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Not having any visible ozone bubbles coming into your spa CAN be a sign of no water flow, and therefore a faulty circulation pump---BUT NOT ALWAYS. The key to making this determination takes a keen eye and a little patience. As a first step, remove the filters from your spa. Clogged filters reduce water flow that in turn can create several problems for your tub. With the filters removed do the bubbles reappear? If yes, clean or replace the filters.

If not, the next step is to determine whether the circulation pump is operating properly. By carefully observing the water surface can you see a slight ripple directly up from the water return? If you can, move ahead to the last paragraph. If you cannot see the water moving, can you feel it moving? Reach down into the tub and place your hand over the water return point. Can you feel the water flowing back into the tub? If yes, again move forward. If not, there is one last thing to do before calling us for a service call on your tub. Carefully pour ¼ cup of PH Reducer down the open filter stand pipe, wait five minutes, repeat, and try resetting your circuit breakers. Since PH Reducer is a mild acid the cleaning action may dissolve tiny particles that are clogging your circulation pump. If, after twenty-four hours, the bubbles have not reappeared, call us for a service call.

If you have determined that the water is flowing to your tub, but no bubbles are present, the problem will probably be a clogged ozonator line, or a broken or failed ozonator check valve. Unless directed by service technician, we do not recommend that customers make further attempts to track the problem source and a service call is in order.
