REGULAR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
NOTE: These maintenance procedures are the responsibility of the swim spa owner to perform.
These procedures are not covered by the swim spa warranty.
CLEANING JETS
The majority of jets in your swim spa can individually be turned
on/off. If any of these jets become hard to turn, it will be
necessary to remove the jet to clean it as grit/sand and mineral
deposit may be present.
The jets in your swim spa can be removed for cleaning by
turning them counter-clockwise until they release and then
pulling out the jet.
TO CLEAN JETS:
Place the jet(s) in a container, fully immerse in white vinegar. Let the jet(s) soak
overnight and then rinse with water. It may be necessary to clean grit and deposits from the white
jet body (mounted in the swim spa shell) by using a small bristled brush.
CLEANING DIVERTER VALVES
Mineral deposits, grit and sand may get into the internal parts of the
diverter valves over time. The diverter valves may become difficult to turn
or not turn at all.
CAUTION –
TURN OFF SWIM SPA BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THIS
MAINTENANCE.
FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW:
1.
Remove the handle from the top of diverter valve by grasping the handle and pulling up with a
rocking motion.
2.
Turn the cap piece counter-clockwise. It may be necessary to put a clean towel over the cap and
turn it with a wrench.
3.
Once loose, the cap, internal rotor assembly and handle can be pulled up out of the white
plumbing fitting.
4.
Wipe down the internal rotor assembly that attaches to the cap and handle.
5.
Soak the internal rotor assembly in white vinegar.
6.
The inner wall of the white plumbing fitting should also be wiped down. If the surface of the
white plumbing has become too abrasive, you can take wet, fine sandpaper and smooth it out.
7.
Rinse the diverter internals. Inspect O-rings for cracking or swelling and apply silicone lubricant
to them. Then reassemble.
NOTE:
It is helpful to turn the diverter valve only when the pump is not on. Cleaning your diverter
valve should occur every time you drain your swim spa. Refer to Draining Your Swim Spa in
the Regular Maintenance Procedures section.
