the acrylic surface.

cated in the middle of the door and remove the
skimmer basket. Then insert the filter cartridge into
the filter housing and reinsert the basket so that it fits
in place over the filter cartridge and close the skim-
mer/filter door.
5. Clean the interior of the spa of any remaining con-
struction debris. Remove stubborn stains, paint, or
tar with turpentine, isopropyl alcohol or paint thinner.
A mild liquid dishwashing detergent on a damp cloth
is fine for cleaning off other dirt. Plaster can be
removed by scraping with a soft plastic or wooden
edge. Do not use a metal scraper, wire brush, or other
metal tools, as they will damage the spa’s surface.

through mouse hole. Connect to a separate 115V 15
AMP circuit.
