3. Fill the spa.
2.
Remove the cartridge from filter canister.
Never fill your spa with soft water.
Soft water
makes it impossible to maintain the proper water chemistry and may cause the water to foam,
which will ultimately harm the finish of the spa and void your warranty. You may fill your spa with
well water
After you remove the filter, remove the plastic
wrapper and soak it in water for 30 minutes before
you replace it. A dry filter can allow air into the
filtration system which can cause the pump to fail
to prime.
If you have a skimmer like this:
Rotate and remove the black locking ring. Remove the
black skimmer cap and barrel, grip the filter by the
handle and unscrew it from the canister.
Replace and lock the locking ring and slide the skimmer
cap and barrel back in the canister.
Note:
The skimmer cap and barrel were locked in place
at the factory to prevent damage during shipment. It
must be unlocked and replaced in the filter canister so that
it can float when the spa is filled. If you do not remove the
cap and barrel, your spa’s filtration system will not perform
as it was designed to.
Place a garden hose in the filter canister and fill your spa
.
Always fill the spa through the filter canister.
Failure
to do so may cause air to be trapped in the filtration system
and prevent the pumps from operating properly.
Fill the spa until water level is about six inches from the top.
If the water level is too low or too high, your spa will not
operate properly.
