Replace @ease SmartChlor Cartridge every 3 to 4 weeks and discard the empty cartridge
-
Rinse and clean spa filters: Use a spray-on cleaner such as Instant Cartridge Clean or soak the filters in Filter Cleaner solution. Rinse the filters thoroughly and soak again in fresh water to prevent foamy / sudsy water
