MAINTENANCE

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

1. Removing Debris

Remove any debris and leaves from the Vortex skimmers and suction

guard(s) on the inside of the spa. Blocked intakes can impede the flow of

water through the jetting system.

2. Water Level

Replenish the water level if necessary so that it is approximately two-thirds

up the Vortex skimmer opening. (See STARTING YOUR SPA.) Low and

high water levels can damage your spa. It is important to check your water

level often.

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

1. Filter Care

We cannot stress enough the importance of a clean filter for proper water

filtration. Dirty filters can restrict water flow, cause hazy water, and prevent

your chemicals from working properly. Dirty filters can also cause low flow

from jets, poor water clarity and sensors to activate error codes. It is

important to clean filters regularly. Many water treatment products clear or

clarify the water by clumping microscopic particles and minerals together so

that these larger particles can be effectively trapped in the filter. A filter

clogged with debris and calcium deposits does not trap particles properly.

Soak your filter cartridges in Filter Cleaner monthly.

The Maintenance Reminder on the spa-side Control Panel indicates a CL

every 30 days to remind you to clean your filter.

Removing the Filter

Turn the RCD power off to the spa. Grasp the edge of the Vortex skimmer

lid or Waterfall, pull up firmly, but gently, to remove it.

Turn the filter cartridge counterclockwise to unscrew it from its base. Lift out

the filter cartridge.

Use a hose to clean the filter cartridge and Filter Cleaner to soak the filters.

NOTE: Keep an extra set of filters on hand so you always have a clean set

ready for immediate spa enjoyment. Remember to replace the filter

cartridges at least once a year.

Reinstalling the Filter

Repeat the steps above in reverse. Do not over tighten the filter as it may cause

the threads on the bottom to strip and fail to hold the filter in place. When

replacing the Waterfall, center the top over the raised filter ring and press down

firmly until the top snaps into place. (See INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS,

Filter Cartridges.)

CAUTION: Over-tightening of the filter can cause the filter or filter housing to

crack. Tighten filter until it is just snug.

NOTE: Filters and filter lids do not qualify for labor coverage. These parts can

be purchased or exchanged under warranty at your authorized Marquis Spas

dealer.

Leakage Detection

Open the equipment door and check for signs of water leakage around the

pump(s). Pump seals wear out over time, especially with improper water

chemistry. Pump seals, heater gaskets and pump gaskets must be checked each

month to ensure they are not leaking. Further damage caused by a leak from

any component is not covered under the warranty.

EVERY THREE TO FOUR MONTHS

Draining and Filling the Spa

On average, a spa needs to be drained every three to four months. After months

of continually adding chemicals to the water and introducing body oils and

lotions, the water can be difficult to manage and chemicals are not as effective

as usual. You may also notice excessive foaming. More frequent draining may be

required depending on use.

Draining the Spa

A. Turn off the power to the spa.

B. Open the equipment compartment (see EQUIPMENT DIAGRAM).

Remove the hose bib cap from the connection and attach a hose.

C. Open the drain valve. Gravity causes the water to drain out of the hose.

D. When the spa is empty, close the drain valve and remove the hose.

Reinstall the hose bib plug.

NOTE: Keep the drain valve closed at all times except when draining the

spa (do not rely on the cap to stop the flow of water). Not doing so could

result in damage to the drain valve due to freezing water.

Ozonator Operation

Clean the ozone injector and fitting every six months. A mineral build up may

clog the ozone injector, causing a lack of flow or low flow of ozone. To prevent

this, perform the following:

A. Disconnect power to the spa.

B. Open the equipment compartment.

C. Locate the ozonator in the equipment compartment (see spa

equipment diagrams) and unplug the ozonator from the control box.

D. Place 0.47 litres of white vinegar (white vinegar will not damage the

spa components) into a container such as a cup or bucket. Place the

container on the equipment compartment floor.

E. Carefully loosen the long clear tube to the bottom of the ozonator. A

liquid substance may be found inside the tubing. If it is present, be

certain not to come into contact with the liquid.

F. WARNING: Nitric acid accumulates in the air lines of the ozonator

and injector. Nitric acid will cause severe chemical burns if direct

skin contact is made, so always wear protective gloves, glasses

and clothing when working on the ozonator or injector lines. To

prevent inhalation or ingestion of the nitric acid, DO NOT blow or

inhale with your mouth to any of the adapters, fittings or tubing of

the ozonator or injector air lines.

G. Place the end of the tubing into the vinegar, making certain that the

end of the tubing sits at the bottom of the container.

H. Reconnect power to the spa.

I. Run the spa until all of the vinegar is gone. This should allow an ample

flow of vinegar to be run through the injector and clear the blockage.

J. Disconnect power to the spa.

K. Remove the empty cup or bucket.

L. Reinstall the tubing to the bottom of the ozonator.

M. Plug the ozonator into the control box.

N. Close the equipment compartment door.

O. Reconnect power to the spa.

Replacing the Spa Frog

Mineral Cartridge

This cartridge should be replaced every three to four months. You may still feel the

“spent” minerals inside, but they are no longer effective and need to be replaced.

(See ADJUST THE MINERAL CARTRIDGES, Blue Mineral Cartridge.)

Clean the DuraShell

Interior

Once the spa is drained, clean the DuraShell

interior thoroughly especially at

the water line. We suggest the Glove Sponge to clean without scratching.
