The hydrotherapy spa is designed to provide years of
enjoyment. Please follow the guidelines below to
properly maintain your spa.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Daily
• Check the water level and refill the spa to the level
shown in step 5 on page 9.
• Check the pH balance and sanitizer level. Adjust if
necessary (see WATER CHEMISTRY on this page).
Weekly
• Clean the spa shell at the waterline.
• Check and thoroughly clean the filters (see
CHECKING AND CLEANING THE FILTERS on this
page).
• Replace the filters if needed (see ORDERING
REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this
manual).
Monthly
• Clean the spa cover (see MAINTAINING THE SPA
COVER on this page).
• Soak the filters for two hours in a trisodium phos-
phate (TSP) solution. Rinse the filters in clean
water.
• Replace the filters if needed (see ORDERING
REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this
manual).
Every Three Months
• Drain the spa and refill it with clean water. Sanitize
and test the pH of the water.
• Check for any leaks around the pump or joints in
the pipes. The seals will wear out over time; detect-
ing leaks early can reduce repair costs.
• Clean the interior of the spa. Do not use solvents or
waxes.
MAINTAINING THE SPA EXTERIOR
The premium cedar surround has been treated at the
factory. For information and supplies to maintain the
beauty and color of your premium cedar surround,
contact your local pool and spa supply store.
CLEANING THE SPA SHELL
The spa shell should be cleaned with a mild soap
solution; do not use solvents or waxes. The spa
should always be clean and dry before being moved
or stored.
MAINTAINING THE SPA COVER
The spa cover should be cleaned monthly. To clean
the spa cover, use water and a non-abrasive cleaner
on the entire cover. Rinse the cover with a garden
hose to remove any cleaner residue. Dry the cover
entirely. Use a non-silicone-based vinyl conditioner on
the cover after you clean it. This will help protect the
cover from sun damage.
CHECKING AND CLEANING THE FILTERS
The filters should be checked periodically for build-up
of dirt and oil. If the filters need to be cleaned, follow
the steps below:
1. Turn off the power.
2. Unscrew the filter
covers.
4. Lift the the filters out
of the filter housings.
5. Check the filters for
dirt and debris. If the
filters need to be
cleaned, rinse the fil-
ters with a hose. If
the filters are still
dirty, soak them in
cleaning solution
from a pool and spa
supply store.
6. Inspect the filters for damage. Replace the filters if
the are damaged.
7. Insert the cleaned or new filters into the filter hous-
ings.
8. Re-attach the filter covers.
WATER CHEMISTRY
Maintaining the pH level of the water is very important
to the operation of the spa. To maintain the proper pH
level and to sanitize the spa, you can purchase a
chemical starter kit from your local pool and spa sup-
ply store.
CAUTION: The chemicals used to maintain the pH
balance of the water and to sanitize the water can
be dangerous. Always follow these basic guide-
lines when handling the chemicals:
1. Always read and follow the directions on the
label, unless directed otherwise.
2. Never mix different chemicals.
3. Do not exceed the recommended amounts of
chemicals—follow the directions on the label.
