Instruction Manual
Cleaning and Maintenance
Before First Time Use
The Pump Circulation System needs to be flushed and drained before using an
Ella’s Walk-in Bathtub for the first time. To flush the bathtub, combine 2
cups of white vinegar and 2 cups of water. Then, fill the bathtub with water
to reach an inch above the highest jets. Add the vinegar/water mixture, and
run the bathtub for 10 minutes. Since the air and hydro system are plumbed,
it is not necessary to flush after each bath.
To remove construction debris, use a mild detergent. More stubborn debris may
be removed with denatured alcohol or Clorox Soft Scrub cleaner. Additionally,
light scratches and dulled areas may be restored to their original luster by
polishing the surface with a fine grade, automotive type cleaning and
polishing compound, such as Turtle Wax brand products.
Suggested Monthly Cleaning Instructions
It is recommended that the pump’s inlet cover is cleaned and the pump
circulation system is flushed once a month.
You can clean the pump’s inlet cover by clearing debris, such as hair,
followed by wiping it down using a non abrasive towel and a suggested cleaning
material (see below).
Inlet Cover

Cleaning Systems Included with Ella Walk-In Tub Hydro or Air Jetting
Packages
Ozone Sterilization System
Ella’s Hydrotherapy Massage System includes the Ozone Sterilization System.
The sterilization system is the most eco-friendly, chemical free disinfectant
that can eliminate a wide variety of inorganic, organic, and microbiological
bacteria. It automatically engages when the hydrotherapy massage is activated.
While the Ozone Sterilization System will not completely replace the need to
clean your tub monthly, it is especially helpful in hygienic maintenance and
eliminating odors in our one to two bather walk-in tub options.
Auto Purge System
Ella’s Air Jet System includes an Auto Purge System. It automatically
activates shortly after completing your bath in order to blow out any excess
water and bacteria from the hoses. The Auto Purge System prevents your walk-
in bathtub from getting moldy or clogged.
ATTENTION:
We do not recommend using abrasive cleaners and cleaning materials.
Additionally, avoid using bath bombs because they may be difficult to clean or
clog the jet system(s).
Bath oils, fragrances and salts may be used, however these items are not
suggested because it may require more frequent maintenance and cleaning of
your bathtub and/or plumbing.
