PowerPool
NOTE: Do NOT attempt to use the
PowerPool™ pump to drain the PowerPool™.
NOTE: Close and replace caps on all drains
prior to relling the PowerPool™.
NOTE: When relling the PowerPool™ you
may need to bleed air from the system. Refer
to Priming Your Spa, pg. 15, for instructions.
Filter Maintenance
NOTE: It is not necessary to drain the
PowerPool™ in order to clean the lters.
The removable lter cartridges are located
in the lter canisters inside the skimmer. The
lters should be inspected/cleaned monthly
during normal use and more often when spa
use is heavy.
Keep the lter cartridges clean! Clean the
lter cartridges at least once every 30 days.
A clogged lter decreases performance and
degrades water quality.
To clean the lter cartridge:
1. Turn the pump o.
2. Remove skimmer lid on top of PowerPool™.
3. Remove strainer basket
4. Remove lter cartridge from the lter
canister by grasping the top and lifting
upwards.
5. Soak lter in a commercial lter cleaner/
degreaser, available from your MAAX®
Spa dealer, per manufacturers instructions.
Rinse lter cartridge with a hose. Replace
with new cartridge, if needed.
6. Place lter cartridge back into lter canister.
7. Replace strainer basket and skimmer lid.
8. Turn the pump ON.
Replacing the lter cartridge semi-annually
is recommended to maintain optimum
performance. Filter maintenance depends on
usage.
Winterizing
In cold climates where freezing temperatures
occur, special care is required to prevent the
possibility of damage to the PowerPool™ and
associated equipment due to freezing. If you
plan on using your PowerPool™ during cold
months, be sure your pump and heater are
in good working order. The PowerPool™ has
been insulated to provide ecient operation
in cold weather areas.
NOTE: If you elect not to drain your
PowerPool™ and the temperature is going
to be below freezing for extended periods
of time, it is best to operate the heater at
the maximum high temperature 104°F
(40°C), especially if there is a power outage
threat. This will help reduce the likelihood
of the water freezing if you have a power
failure.
If you do not intend to use your PowerPool
during the winter months and there is danger
of freezing, use the following steps to winterise
your PowerPool™:
1. Turn o all electrical power to the PowerPool™.
2. Drain PowerPool™ and hoses of all
water using the directions for Draining Your
PowerPool™ (pg. 26). Open all unions, and
remove drain plugs from bottom of pumps.
If you cannot draw o all of the water
(especially from hoses), add Recreational
Vehicle antifreeze to the remaining water
through the bottom of the skimmer
and jets. If antifreeze is used, it must be
an inhibitor Propylene Glycol such as Dow
