A spa cartridge will usually last a year or two. The better it is cleaned, the longer it will last. Eventually,
though, the filter cartridge will need to be replaced. Eastgate Pools & Spas carries these replacement
cartridges.
Draining & Cleaning The Spa
As was discussed earlier, regular changes of water are extremely important to your spa’s well being.
To drain and clean your spa, follow the guidelines listed below:
! 1. An hour or two before you plan to drain your spa, set the temperature all of the way down. This
! ! will allow the heating element to cool down.
! 2.! For spas equipped with an interior drain bib, remove the skirt panel directly below the
! ! main control panel and attach the hose to the bib. For Reflections models, unscrew the
! ! drain cap and attach a garden hose.
! 3.! Turn off power to the spa.
!4. !For drain bibs located inside the cabinet, simply open the bib. Do not exert unnecessary
! ! pressure on the bib as it may break.
!!
! ! For Reflections models, loosen the drain plug by turning counter-clockwise. It will only go
! ! a partial TURN. When it stops, pull straight out. This will start the flow. ! ! !
!
!5.! Wipe the spa surface down using a soft rag and WHITE RIVER SPA CLEAN. Do not
! ! use regular household cleaners to clean the spa’s acrylic, as they may damage the spa's finish
! ! or cause excessive foaming.
! 6.! Rinse the spa down with clean water.
! 7.! Remove remaining water from the spa. (A wet/dry vacuum works great for this job. Otherwise,
! ! scoop the remaining water out.)
