Superior Gecko - Diverter Valve Maintenance

DIVERTER
VALVE MAINTENANCE
If the diverter valve of your hot tub is dicult to
rotate, the reason could be the accumulaon of
residues in the valve. Please remove such residues
as soon as possible to prevent damage to the
diverter valve.
In order to do this, please follow these steps:
• Switch o the isolaon switch/turn o plug to shut
o the power supply to the hot tub
• Li and shake back and forth to remove the
diverter valve handle
• Unscrew top cap
• Pull up and remove the valve body
• Wipe the valve body and the valve inner wall
• Lubricate the O-ring with waterproof lubricants
• Reinstall the diverter valve and turn on the power
to the hot tub
Jet maintenance
If you nd that the jet rotaon speed is slower than
usual, or the jet is scky to turn, the reason could be
the accumulaon of sediment between the jet and
the jet housing.
To remove the sediment, please follow
these instrucons:
• Unscrew the jet an-clockwise
• The jet will get to a point where it is hard to turn
• Twist the jet past this point and keep unscrewing
unl the jet comes out of the housing
• Aer washing the jet with water, spin the rotary
secon of the jet (only for rotaonal jets). Now,
the jet should be able to rotate freely. If it can
sll not freely rotate, you can soak the bearing in
a cup of vinegar for one night (cider vinegar can
soen any sediment)
• Wash the jet with water on the next day and then
carry out a rotaon test
• You may also need to clean the jet housing to
ensure no sediment is stuck
Aer these steps are done you can screw the jet back
into the jet housing.

NOTE:
If the bearing can sll not freely rotate, you need
to soak it one more night. If the bearing sll does
not rotate, you must purchase a new one.
