PLEASE REFER THE DIAGRAM TO REMOVE JET COVER FOR CLEANING
T-SPA highly recommends the following cleaning regimen. You should always contact
your local governing agency for their specific cleaning and disinfecting requirements
and regulations for pedicure spas. For your client
’s safety, always use the regulations as
a minimum standard for cleaning and disinfecting. Combining your states standards with
the regimen listed below will provide your clients with a safe and healthy pedicure spa
environment experience.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Powdered cleansers or abrasives are
NOT RECOMMENDED
. A clean towel or sponge
are all that are usually needed. A soft bristled brush may be used when excessive
residue is present. Use a mild soap and water solution to clean the upholstery, but DO
NOT over wet. Wipe dries with a clean towel. No internal maintenance of the spa
components is necessary. Remove clean jet caps and spray with disinfectant after each
use. For extra protection, our recommendation is that the system be flushed daily or
weekly depending on use. To flush the clean jet system, fill the spa with hot water to just
above the jets. Add disinfectant. Run whirlpool for 15 minutes, drain and then wipe dry
with clean, soft cloth.
NOTE:
The use of oil-based products can build up in the whirlpool system, causing clogging in
the jets. Adherence to the above cleaning will minimize build up. T-SPA DO NOT
recommend the use of mineral oil-based products.
MAINTENANCE & USE
Cleaning or sanitizing is NOT disinfecting. According to the Centers of Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), and the US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), disinfecting occurs only when there is a reduction of pathogenic
microbes at 99.999%. Sanitizing is only a reduction of 99.9%. Cleaning of
whirlpool pedicure spa requires surfactant and chelating detergents that are
low-foaming and can remove body oils, organic oil additives, mineral oil, skin
cells, nail clippings etc. that can accumulate both in the basin and the jets which
may become a fertile area for microorganism to grow.
