J-210 models:
These model spas are equipped with a skimmer basket and filter
cartridge located in the skimmer/filter well. Filtering is accomplished
when jets pump #1 turns on in low speed initiating water flow through
the skimmer basket and polyester mesh filter cartridge. As this happens,
suspended particles become trapped on the filter’s surface.
To Clean Filter:
1. Turn off power to the spa at the home’s breaker panel or select the L1
) to disable all spa functions.
2. Remove the filter strainer lid assembly.
3. Remove the filter cartridge by rotating it counterclockwise to unthread it
from the filter wall fitting, then lift it straight up to remove from filter well.
4. Using a garden hose with a high-pressure nozzle, rinse debris from
the filter pleats beginning at the top and working your way downward.
Continue, one section at a time, until you have rinsed all of the filter’s
pleats.
