Why Is My Filter Icon Flashing?
A flashing filter icon means it's time to clean or replace your filter cartridge.
What Triggers the Filter Icon to Flash?
The filter icon works on a simple timer — it flashes after 150 hours (approximately 6 days and 6 hours) of filter run time since the last reset. There is no sensor that detects how dirty the filter is — the icon will flash regardless of the actual condition of the cartridge.
How to Stop the Icon Flashing
- Clean or replace your filter cartridge.
- Press and hold the Filter button for 3 seconds to reset the filter timer.
- The icon should stop flashing once the timer has been reset.
Filter Care Tips
- Filters should be cleaned at least once per week.
- Filter cartridges should be replaced within 6 weeks.
- Always turn off all functions before removing the filter cartridge — this prevents debris from being sucked into the control unit while you clean or replace it.
Self-Cleaning Function (2026 Models Onwards)
Spas manufactured from 2026 include a self-cleaning filter function:
- A 20-second self-cleaning cycle runs automatically each time the filter is turned off. Note: this will not activate if the filter is turned off within 20 seconds of being switched on.
- You can also manually trigger a 100-second self-cleaning cycle: turn off all other functions including the LED light strip, then press the FILTER + UP buttons simultaneously.
