WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE-ECO PUR™ 

Legend Series Spas and Down East Spas

BEFORE EACH USE 

Check spa water with a test strip for proper sanitation levels and adjust accordingly to the proper levels.

ONCE A WEEK 

Add 3 Tablespoons of a non-chlorine shock or 1 tea spoon of Dichlor to spa per 250 gallons. 

3 TIMES A WEEK

Test water using chemical test strips. Adjust sanitizer, pH and Alkalinity accordingly. 

ONCE A MONTH*

Soak your filter elements overnight in a bucket with spa Filter Cleaner and then rinse with clean water
before re-inserting. (The ECO PUR™ mineral element should never be cleaned in a filter cleaner. Just
rinse with water.)

EVERY 180 DAYS

Drain and refill your spa, replace with a new ECO PUR™ element, repeat start up procedure. 

AFTER EACH USE

Add 1 tablespoon of non-chlorine shock or 1/3 teaspoon of Dichlor to spa per 250 gallons.

AS NEEDED

If water looks hazy, shock treat with 1 teaspoon of Dichlor per 500 gallons. 

* These are general recommendations for water quality maintenance that may vary by usage and or

bather load. Depending on bather load and frequency of use, drain and refill times may vary as well 
as the frequency of cleaning your filters.

* Foam Gone may be used when excessive foaming occurs. Be sure to use only a drop or two at a time.

Over use of Foam Gone will result in cloudy, milky water.

NOTE:

As an alternative to non chlorine shock, Dichlor may be substituted.

1 tsp. Dichlor = 3 tablespoons of non chlorine shock 

USE ONLY SPA CHEMICALS

(some pool chemicals are not suitable for spa use). 

* when cleaning filters, be sure to never have the pumps (including the circulation pump) 

running without the filters in place. Failure to do so may result in debris in the pumps causing 
unwarranted damage.
