Maintenance of the Go-Filter™ system is two-fold. First, clean the first two swirl concentrators by running clean water into the swirls and allowing it to exit through the drain pipes at the bottom of the system. The second step is to cleanout the filtration chamber. Inspection of the filtration media can be performed by observing the color change of the filter media from its original light color to dark brown. If the filter bags need replacing, entry into the system is required. The spent filter containers are lifted from the chamber and discard it.

Replacement filters are then lowered into the system and set into position. The filters are placed into two foot by two foot holders that should be overlapped such that the lower two bags are parallel to the length of the filtration chamber, and the upper two are perpendicular to the length of the chamber. Care must be taken to ensure that the containers are seated into position to promote good contact with the walls on all sides.

Typically, the spent filters do not require any special treatment or handling for disposal. AquaShield™ recommends that all materials removed be handled and disposed of in accordance with local and state requirements.

An Inspection and Maintenance Manual is provided with the Go-Filter™ system for more detailed maintenance procedures.
