Weekly Maintenance
SUMMARY: There’s 3 simple steps for weekly maintenance that take
about 15 minutes in total to ensure that your Tub is running properly and
the water is clean and clear. The first step is checking the water chemistry,
then the External Water Strainer, then the Water Filter.
STEP 1 – Check Water Chemistry
Start by adding 30cc (1 Measuring Cup) of Oxidizer for low volume (five to
seven plunges per week) or 60cc (2 Measuring Cups) for high volume
(greater than seven plunges per week).
Wait 15 minutes.
Immerse Test Strip to a depth of 6” for 2 seconds. Remove with pads face
up. Shake once to remove excess water. Wait 10 seconds and compare
“San” line to color chart on back of bottle. If Sanitizer shows below the
“OK” range, add 10cc (1/3 Measuring Cup). Wait 15 minutes and test
again. Repeat test and add more Sanitizer if necessary.
If Alkalinity, pH, or Calcium are outside of desired range, balancers can
be purchased through our website. Of these, pH is most important to
have in the right range.
STEP 2 – Check External Water Strainer
Turn off Chiller, and close Tub Valves by turning the valve handle
perpendicular to the valve body.
STEP 3 – Check Water Filter
To access the Water Filter, turn the Lower Water Filter Housing to the left if
facing the back of the Chiller. Check Water Filter condition by comparing
to the diagram below. If the condition is in the “Replace” range, or if the
flow reading on the Control Panel reads less than 13.0 L/min, then
replace the filter with a new one. When changing the filter, empty the
Lower Water Filter Housing fully and refill up to the top with fresh water.
Ensure the Filter Housing O-ring in the Upper Water Filter Housing (white
part) is present and free from damage before reinstalling filter housing.
Be sure to open the Tub Valves before turning the Chiller back on, or
damage will occur!
Replace filter when color matches "Replace Filter" range
above, or if water flow issues develop with Chiller.
Remove the bottom red “Inlet” Chiller Hose from the Chiller. Remove Water
Strainer Cover by twisting counterclockwise and check Inner Water Strainer
for debris; remove any foreign materials present. Use brillo pad or rough
sponge if necessary. Check the Strainer O-ring at the base of the threads is
present and free from damage before reinstalling Water Strainer Cover.
