BEFORE EACH USE
Check swim spa water with a test strip for proper sanitation levels and adjust accordingly
to the proper levels. Free chlorine level should be 1-3 ppm.
ONCE A WEEK
Add 1 ounce of non-chlorine shock/oxidizer
*
or chlorine
*
to swim spa to help maintain the water
quality.
3 TIMES A WEEK
Test water using chemical test strips. Adjust sanitizer, pH and Alkalinity accordingly. The total alka-
linity should be between 80 - 150 ppm and the PH should be between 7.2 - 7.8.
ONCE A MONTH
Soak your regular filter elements overnight in a container with swim spa Filter Cleaner and then
rinse with clean water. For best results, allow the filter to dry before re-inserting. (The Eco Pur
™
mineral element should never be cleaned in a filter cleaner. Just rinse with water.) 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 being drawn into the pumps causing unwarranted
damage. See the “clean your filter elements” in the maintenance section of this manual for more
information.
EVERY 180 DAYS
Drain and refill your swim spa with fresh water, install a new Eco Pur
™
filter element, clean the
regular filter, and repeat start up procedure. The regular filter should be replaced at least once
every year.

*SPECIAL NOTE:
We recommend a minimum level of 1.0 ppm residual chlorine be maintained in swim spa water. Always refer to
the chemical manufacturer’s dosage recommendations listed on the container.
When adding chlorine or non-chlorine shock/oxidizer always broadcast across the water while the pumps are
running.
The quantities of sanitizer and non-chlorine oxidizer shown in this manual are for 500 gallon swim spas and may
have to be adjusted depending on the actual amount of water that your swim spa holds. See the specifications
section of this manual for the correct gallons of your swim spa.
The concentration of active ingredients in swim spa chemicals varies by manufacturer. Swim spa chemicals are
the same as spa chemicals. The amounts of sanitizer suggested in this manual are based on swim spa chemicals
that have the active ingredient percentages listed below:
