See page 17-18 for detailed filter cleaning/replacement instructions. Water Maintenance You will want to replace the spa’s water every 3 to 6 months. The frequency depends on a number of variables including the frequency of use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water, even though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters. See page 22 for additional information.
