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 THE CLEAR ACRYLIC DIVIDER (Momentum)
•
The surface should be first flushed with clean water to remove loose abrasive particles. The clear
acrylic sheet should then be gently sponged with a mild soap/water solution and finally rinsed with
clean water. Care must be taken not to leave any of the soap residue in the swim spa as it could
cause the swim spa water to foam during operation.
• Drying can be done with a clean soft cotton towel. Avoid hard rough cloths or paper towels since
they can put fine scratches on the acrylic surface.
• Do not use any aggressive solvents (lacquer thinner, gasoline, acetone and etc.) on the clear acrylic
sheet. These products can cause damage to the sheet that may not be visible until days or weeks
later.
• Window glass cleaning compounds are not recommended. Cleaning products that contain any type
of abrasive material should not be used.
CARE OF ACRYLIC LED LIT HANDRAILS
Special care should be given to the Acrylic LED Lit Handrails so that they maintain their attractive
appearance and durability for the life of your swim spa.
•
During draining and cleaning process, wipe down the handrails with a mild dishwashing
detergent or spa shell surface cleaner and a clean soft cloth, applying light pressure. Rinse with
clean water and blot dry with a dry soft cloth. Remove as much residual soap as possible from
swim spa to prevent foaming when refilled.
•
Scale and mineral (i.e. calcium) buildup can be removed using white vinegar and soft cloth. Rinse
with clean water and blot dry with a soft cloth.
•
Maintain
the surface gloss of the acrylic and lessen scratches by occasionally polishing with a
plastic cleaner and polish. Apply a thin even coat with a clean soft cloth and polish lightly with
cotton flannel. Then wipe with damp, soft cloth. This is recommended to do after swim spa is
drained for cleaning.
•
To remove deeper scratches, first sand lightly with 400-grit wet sandpaper, using plenty of water
and rinsing the sandpaper often. Next, follow the steps for applying plastic polish above (if
necessary, do so when swim spa is drained).
NOTE
: Do not use window cleaning spray, kitchen scouring compounds, or solvents such as
acetone, gasoline or lacquer thinner. The clear handrail does have limited resistance to
Isopropyl alcohol up to 50% grade. If used, limit the exposure time to prevent damage and
do not expose to more than 50% grade.
CARE OF YOUR SWIM SPA PILLOWS
• Your swim spa pillows should be rinsed periodically to remove chemical residue. This helps improve
pillow lifespan and slows down deterioration of the pillows (i.e. discoloring, becoming stiff and
flaking of the material).
• If the swim spa will not be used for a period of time, the pillows could be removed and rinsed to
prolong their life.
NOTE: Do not cover the swim spa for 15 minutes after adding chemicals as the off gas can cause
damage.
