Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your hot tub.

FreezeShield Technology
The integrated FreezeShield technology automatically prevents the spa's inner components from freezing at colder temperatures. This feature helps protect your spa during winter months, but proper winterization procedures should still be followed for extended periods of non-use in freezing conditions.
Filter Cartridge Cleaning and Replacement
Regularly clean the filter cartridge to ensure efficient water filtration. Rinse the cartridge with a garden hose. Replace the filter cartridge every few weeks, or more frequently depending on usage and water quality.
Cleaning and Storage
When preparing for storage, ensure the spa is completely drained, cleaned, and dry. Deflate the spa and store it in a dry, temperate location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your SaluSpa.
- Spa not heating: Ensure the power-saving timer is not active. Check the set temperature on the control panel or app. Verify the filter is clean and water flow is not obstructed.
- AirJet system not working: Check if the AirJet button is activated on the control panel or app. Ensure the spa pump is properly connected and powered.
- Water is cloudy: Clean or replace the filter cartridge. Test water chemistry and adjust sanitizers (e.g., chlorine) as needed using the ChemConnect dispenser. Shock treatment may be required.
- Spa losing air: Inspect the spa liner for punctures or leaks. Use soapy water to identify small leaks. Repair with the provided repair patch kit. Ensure all inflation valves are securely closed.
- GFCI tripping: An overly sensitive or faulty GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) plug can cause frequent tripping. Ensure the electrical outlet is grounded and not overloaded. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician or Bestway customer support.
