6. Clean the ProClear lter cartridges with a garden hose and high
pressure nozzle. Rinse debris from the lter pleats beginning at the
top and working your way downward. Continue, one section at a
time until you have cleaned all debris from the lter pleats. When
replacing the lter cartridge, make sure you remove the center cap
and chemical dispenser for use with the new cartridge. Replacement
lter cartridges may be purchased from your authorized Jacuzzi
dealer.
About every 3 to 6 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The
frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of
use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc.
You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing
and/or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water even
though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper
parameters.
CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To reduce risk of
damage to the spas components, turn off power to the spa at the
circuit breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on
until your spa has been relled.
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind when
draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is out-
doors, freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment (see
“WINTERIZING”, page 47). On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors,
do not leave the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power to spa at breaker.
2. Locate the drain valve located on the front
left corner on the black plastic pan. Hold the
larger (rear) drain valve body to prevent it
from turning, then loosen and remove the
front cap to expose the underlying male hose
threads.
3. Attach a garden hose to the exposed threads.
4. Gently rotate the larger (rear) valve body 1/3
turn counterclockwise to unlock the drain
valve.
