Sundance Spas 880 - Manual (Page 37)

11.0 Hot Tub Maintenance
Proper and regular maintenance of your hot tub will help it retain its beauty
and performance. Your authorized Sundance Dealer can supply you with all
the information, supplies, and accessory products you will need to accom-
plish this.
11.1 Cleaning The Filter
A programmable “Change Filter” reminder flashes on the
control panel display after a specified number days to remind
you to clean (or replace) your filter cartridge(s). This
reminder must be reset at each cleaning interval. Refer to
section 10.3 (page 26) for additional information and programming details.
Your Sundance hot tub is equipped with an exclusive MicroClean TM 2-stage
filter located under the filter lid (Figure-F, Page 14). Larger debris is filtered by
pump #1 drawing water through the larger (stage 1) cartridge during normal
operation and at each skimming/heating cycle. Fine debris is filtered by the
circulation pump drawing water through the smaller (stage 2) cartridge. Both
halves work together to give you unsurpassed water quality! To ensure opti-
mum performance, clean and reuse the stage 1 cartridge once a month and
replace the stage 2 cartridge every 3 months.
All models include filters on their footwell suction covers (Page 14)
that prevent debris from entering pump 2 and the diverter valve(s),
when operating. These filters must remain in place to protect these
components from debris entrapment/damage. They should be
cleaned every 2 months, or when weak pump 2 performance is observed.
ALWAYS TURN POWER TO THE HOT TUB OFF BEFORE CLEANING THE
FILTER CARTRIDGE! To accomplish this, refer to the filter cleaning/replace-
ment procedure below:
