Proper Maintenance Helps Softspas Last for Decades Pump seals wear out in approximately 2 years of normal use. They seal around the motor shaft where it enters the pump enclosure. A leak at the seal starts as a drip, but soon develops into a spray that can damage pump motors & controls in a fairly short time. Please check for seal leaks often. At the first sign of a seal leak, send us your pump assembly or powerpak and we will assess for damage, professionally change seal kit & O-rings, water test and promptly return it. Vinyl liners are often damaged by improper water treatment. Bromine or Chlorine should be kept down to 1-2 parts per million (to keep it from bleaching the liner & your skin) and PH up to 7.6 PPM & Alkalinity up to 150 PPM, by adding Softrise regularly (to keep acid from eating the liner - as well as seals, gaskets & O-rings). Refresh helps rid the water of excess calcium & iron & weekly Softshock will oxidize out used Bromine or Chlorine (holding bacteria). Use Spa Perfect (for vinyl) to oxidize out body oils on a different day each week. Wipe hair & lint off the strainer & body oils from the water line, after each use, and clean the filter with Renew once a month. Properly maintained, your water will remain crystal clear, harmless to you and your softspa, for a minimum of 6 months. |
