Owner's Manual & Installation Guide
Iron -
Iron is found in many natural waters especially from wells. Iron in water can also result from the corrosion of
piping in the water supply system, such as cast iron mains or galvanized steel service lines, or galvanized piping in
the home water system. High iron levels may result in the formation of brown stains in the vicinity of the faucet outlets
of various fixtures in the home. With whirlpool bathtubs, the staining may be particularly pronounced because the
aeration action can oxidize iron to a form that settles out on the inside of the tubs, especially noticeable with white
tubs. If high iron in the water is present, you can also notice rust colored deposits inside your toilet tank or dishwasher.
If this occurs, you need to contact the water supplier to determine the iron content and/or corrosion potential of the
water and follow their suggestions for treatment. If your water supply is generated from a well you need to contact the
water treatment company to test your water and suggest solutions if a problem is present.
Manganese -
Manganese is found in many natural waters especially from wells. High manganese levels may result
in the formation of small black particles that can stain laundry, especially noticeable with whites such as sheets or
towels. With whirlpool bathtubs, the formation of small black particles may be particularly pronounced because the
aeration action in the tub can oxidize manganese to an insoluble form that is especially noticeable with white tubs. If
high manganese in the water is present, you may also notice black stains on white laundry. If this occurs, you need to
contact the water supplier to determine the manganese content of the water and follow their suggestions for treatment.
If your water supply is generated from a well, you need to contact a water treatment company to test your water and
suggest solutions if a problem is present.

Treatment
If you have contacted your water supplier and followed their instructions and you are still having problems, you need
to increase the frequency of cleaning with low-foaming detergent/bleach starting from monthly purging down to using
it every other day as required to eliminate your particular problem. The use of certain bath oils, bubble bath soaps
and bath additives may increase the level of accumulations of bath residue in the whirlpool system. More frequent
cleaning may be necessary if these products are used in the whirlpool tub. If excess accumulations persist, you should
discontinue the 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
