Cleaning And Replacing The Filter - CalSpas Portable Spas Manual Del Propietário

Cleaning and Replacing the
Filter
Filtration
Filtration is one of the most important steps you can
take to ensure clean, clear water. Regardless of what
some people may think, it is far less expensive to
fix water clarity problems by filtering your spa than
by using excessive amounts of chemicals, excessive
filtration times, or by water replacement.
Cal Spas™ filtration system draws contaminated water
through the exclusive Bio-Clean™ filter removing debris
from the water. It then pumps the newly cleaned water
back into the spa through various jets. Spas equipped
with the optional ozonator will also receive ozone
injection into the filtered water for further protection
against contaminants during filtration cycles. Filtration
also ensures that chemicals are mixed thoroughly
through the water, increasing performance.
Filtration starts on electronically controlled spas as
soon as the pumps are primed and water flow is
steady. As the flow of water goes through the filter, dirt
and debris is removed and accumulated in the filter
cartridge. As the filter cartridge accumulates dirt and
debris, water flow is restricted and jet performance is
reduced. This can cause your spa to not run or heat
effectively.
Clean your filter regularly and replace as needed.
Filter Cleaning
Your new Cal Spa has been designed for quick and
easy filter maintenance. The filter cartridge should be
cleaned once a week. These instructions apply to both
dual and single filtration systems.
1. Turn the power off at the breaker.
2. Remove the filter by turning it counterclockwise
and unscrewing the bottom threads. Then pull it
up and out.
3. Clean the filter with a garden hose as follows:
a. Hold the filter vertically.
b. Spray the filter cartridges with a pressure
nozzle, starting from the top and spraying
down each pleat.
c. Turn the filter cartridge over and repeat Step
3b.
d. Deep clean filter cartridge every month.

Exclusive Bio-Clean™ Filter Cartridge
The filter cartridge is designed to remove dirt, sand,
minerals, phosphates, bather waste and other solids
from the spa. Unfortunately, some spa owners fail
to include filter cleaning as part of their chemical
maintenance plan. Filters accumulate debris and
become prime areas for bacteria growth.
The Cal Spas™ exclusive Bio-Clean™ Filter is the
only antibacterial filter cartridge on the market today.
Having a filter cartridge that prevents bacteria growth
is added protection for those times you forget to clean
the filter. We recommend that you only replace your
spa's filter cartridge with a Bio-Clean™ filter cartridge
for ensured protection and peace of mind.
