6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Periodically rinse the dispenser with fresh water to remove any chemical residue or buildup. Ensure all vents are clear of debris.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, clean the dispenser thoroughly, allow it to dry completely, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals.

7. Troubleshooting

• Chemicals not dissolving: Ensure the dispenser's vents are open. Check water temperature; colder water may slow dissolution.
• Chemical levels too high/low: Adjust the vent opening on the dispenser. Test water regularly and make small adjustments. Ensure you are using the correct size and type of chemical tablets for your spa volume.
• Dispenser sinking: Check for cracks or damage that might allow water to enter the floatation chamber. Replace if damaged.
