Title: Used Tub Setup
Post by: UnHombre on December 17, 2014, 10:33:59 am

I recently purchased a used tub from a friend. The tub was drained, cleaned, filters washed, and the tub was placed in storage by the dealer. During my setup, I noticed that the clear water lines had some scaling coming lose inside the tubes. I would like to know if I should replace the filters and flush the system before using it. Any other tips on setting up/getting this tub running will greatly be appreciated.

Thanks

 Best thing is to fill it, add a pipe cleaner such as swirl away and run the heck out of it. Make sure all jets are going and leave filters out. Run it for a day, drain, clean refill and put in filters.

For piece of mind yes.
