Filter Maintenance - Passion Dream 7 Mode D'emploi

6. Filter maintenance

Your filter system is vital for the quality of your spa water. Polluted or worn filters do no longer hold
the capacity to filter correctly and therefore put pressure on the jet engine of your spa; this could
even shorten the lifespan of the machine.
A spa filter cartridge consists of polyester micro pores folded filter material, which was designed to
filter the tiniest impurities from the water (for removing the filter). Passion spas Filters have a sur-
face of 4.65 m2 of filter material (depending on the content of the spa, two filters are used that are
especially designed for a maximum range to catch floating particles in the water).
It is recommended to clean the spa filter cartridge every week (or more often if the spa is used
intensively). Use a garden hose and aim the stream of water at a 45°angle to the ground. Check
if the dirt comes off when you rinse every fold of the filter. The filter cartridge should at least be
cleaned with a garden hose and then soaked in a cleaning solution for 24 hours, according to the
instructions, at least every 2 to 4 months.
It is recommended to have a set of extra filters at hand so that you can use your spa during the
soaking process of the filters. This will result in a longer lifespan of the filters. If you are using the
filter rotation system, let the filters dry so that they can be switched immediately the next time the
filters are cleaned.
Do not
• Use a brush to clean the filter.
• Use washing liquid or all-purpose cleaner for soaking the filters.
This will result in a lot of foam in your spa.
• Use a hydro-blaster to clean the filter cartridges, the high water pressure will damage
the materials.
• Use hydrochloric to soak or clean the filters. The acid will shorten the lifespan of the filter
and is a health hazard.
