Possible Causes
Dirty or undersized filter cartridge, Inadequate filtration cycle duration, Imbalanced water chemistry, Biofilm buildup in plumbing lines
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Avoid using the spa until water is clear and properly sanitized.
- Clean or replace filter: Remove the Lifesmart filter and soak it in a filter cleaner solution, then rinse thoroughly. Replace if older than 1 year or if pleats are damaged.
- Increase filtration time: Adjust the control settings to run longer filtration cycles each day.
- Balance water: Test and adjust pH, alkalinity, and sanitizer levels according to the Lifesmart manual.
- Flush plumbing: Use a spa line flush product to remove biofilm from internal plumbing, then drain, clean, and refill the spa.
