TUB CARE
MAINTENTANCE
Before tub is used, the air-whirlpool system should be cleaned and disinfected. Remove all debris and clean tub before
putting whirlpool into service. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE ACRYLIC FINISH. Use a non-abrasive
detergent and rinse well after cleaning.
• Fill the tub with HOT water to a level 2” above the highest jet.
• Add 4 – 6 tablespoons of low-sudsing automatic dishwashing detergent and no more than 24 – 48 ounces of
household bleach to the water.
• Operate whirlpool for 10 minutes. Drain. Note: To effectively clean both the whirlpool and air bath system, you
must operate them both.
• Refill with cold water and operate whirlpool for 5 minutes. Drain.
Whirlpool System Cleaning
To remove accumulations of bath residue from the whirlpool system, we recommend that you purge it at least twice a
month, or more depending on usage. To do this, follow this simple procedure. Fill the bath with hot water (not exceed-
ing 140
o
F). Add to the hot water, 6 tablespoons of low foaming detergent such as liquid Cascade or Calgonite and 48
oz. of liquid household bleach, such as Clorox. Run the bath for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain the bath completely and refill
with cold water only. Run the whirlpool for 5 to 10 minutes, then drain the bath completely. Depending on the usage
and/or the content of the local water supply, more frequent purging may be necessary.
NOTE: DO NOT USE OIL OR OIL BASED BATH ADDITIVES.
If you want to use any kind of bath additive, use only a small amount of low-foaming powder or crystal substance; the
whirlpool action intensifies the foaming properties of soaps.
The use of certain bubble baths and bath additives may increase the level of accumulations of bath residue in the whirlpool
system. If excess accumulations persist, you should discontinue use of these products.
If you have followed the monthly purging instructions and still have an excess accumulation of bath residue and desire an
alternative cleaning mechanism, we recommend
SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS
(Aquatic part #ST1010) manufactured by
Stearns Packaging Corporation to rectify this condition. This may be obtained by calling Aquatic, at (800) 555-5324.
It is recommended that you follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer with the product. Repeated use may be
necessary.
SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS
does not replace the necessity to purge your whirlpool system at least twice a
month with a low foaming detergent and bleach.
Surface Cleaning
Use common household, non-abrasive cleaners for most cleaning jobs. Rinse well and dry with a clean cloth. Never use
abrasive cleaners. Do not allow your Lucite® acrylic surface to come into contact with products such as acetone (nail
polish remover), nail polish, dry cleaning solution, lacquer thinners, gasoline, pine oil, etc. Remove dust with a soft, dry
cloth. Clean grease, oil, paint, and ink stains with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
Jet Cleaning
Most Millennium jets (excluding the 2 Fan Jets) are removable, and can simply be put into the dishwasher for easy clean-
ing. See
Jet Operation
instructions for removal, strarting on page 19. (
NOTE:
Use top rack of dishwasher and remove
before the drying cycle starts.) The Fan Jets can be cleaned with a bottle brush and warm, soapy water.
