J-200
12.1 Cleaning The Filters
TO DECREASE DROWNING OR ENTRAPMENT, ALWAYS TURN
POWER TO SPA OFF BEFORE CLEANING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE!
J-210/J-215/J-225/J-235/J-245/J-275 Models:
These model spas are equipped with a skimmer basket and lter
cartridge located in the skimmer/lter well. Filtering is accomplished
when jets pump #1 turns on in low speed initiating water ow through
the skimmer basket and polyester mesh lter cartridge. As this happens,
suspended particles become trapped on the lter’s surface. To ensure
optimum performance, it is necessary to remove and clean the skimmer
basket once a week and lter cartridge once a month or sooner,
depending on usage and water quality.
To Clean Filter:
1. Turn off power to the spa at the home’s breaker panel or select the
“SVL” (“SERVICE LOCK”) mode (page 35) to disable all spa
functions.
2. Remove the lter strainer lid assembly by rotating it
counterclockwise, Figure A.
3. Remove the lter cartridge by rotating it counterclockwise to
unthread it from the lter wall tting (Figure B). Then lift it straight up
to remove from lter well (Figure C).
4. Using a garden hose with a high-pressure nozzle, rinse debris from
the lter pleats beginning at the top and working your way downward
(Figure D). Continue, one section at a time, until you have rinsed all
of the lter’s pleats.
To ensure optimum performance, clean skimmer basket and lter
cartridge once a month or as necessary, depending on use.
J-210 models include lters on their footwell suction covers
(shown right) that prevent debris from entering the pump
when operating. These lters must remain in place to protect
the components from debris entrapment/damage. They
should be cleaned every 2 months, or when weak pump
performance is observed.
