F ILT ER MAIN T E N A N C E

Vita Spas are designed with the most efficient top

loading filtration system in the industry. Filter

maintenance is the most critical factor in keeping

your spa water clean.

TO CLEAN THE FILT E R :

( N OTE: Never run the spa without a

filter installed)

Remove the cartridge and spray it with a garden

hose. It will be necessary to rotate the cart r i d g e

while spraying so as to thoroughly remove the

debris lodged between the filter pleats.

After allowing to dry, inspect the cartridge for

calcium deposit (scaling) or an oil film. Rapid

mineral build-up from hard water, or oil build-up

from the use of oil-based water scent or body oil

may coat the filter cartridge. A filter cleaner to soak

the cartridge is available from your Vita Spa dealer

and should be used as part of your spa

maintenance. Use a rag to remove any debris at

the bottom of the filter housing and inside the filter

screen. Replace the cartridge in the filter housing.

We recommend the use of a spare filter. This way

one can be soaking and cleaning while you

continue to enjoy the use of your spa.

D RA INING YO UR SPA

Detergent residues from bathing suits as well as

soap film from your body may gr a d u a l l y

accumulate in the water. Foam inhibitors will

suppress the foam but will not remove the soap

from the water. Eventually, the soap build-up in the

water will concentrate enough to leave an unclean

feeling on the user’s skin, causing sudsing and

make the water impossible to clarify. Depending

on the amount of soap input, the spa water should

last between two and three months.

TO DRA IN YO UR SPA

Turn the power off at the GFCI breaker. To locate

drain look at the front base of the spa. Once

located remove cap by turning it counterclockwise.

Attach a garden hose to the bib that is located

directly behind the cap, once removed. Route the

outlet of the hose to an appropriate draining area.

Twist body then pull. The spa will empty by gr a v i t y.

Siphon or scoop out the balance of the water.

IMP O R TA N T : Spa water with a high sanitizer level

may harm plants and grass. If you are draining your

spa for the winter, be sure to fully drain water from

the pipe by disconnecting the two unions at the

gate valves found by each of the two speed

pumps and the two unions found by the

circulation pump. Drain the water pumps by

removing the pump plug. Then reinstall the pump

plugs. Remove the filter and clean as required.

Inspect the spa shell and clean as required.

Refill the spa BE F O RE restoring power to it.
