jacuzzi J-480 waterfall/ozonator function
« on: June 04, 2010, 11:09:56 am »
For those of you that have a J-480/470 with ozone, do you turn off the waterfall when you close up the tub for the day? I was reading that it is recommended to do this in order to allow the ozonator to work at its most optimal level? Is this true?

Thanks  :)

It shouldn't matter.
spas are electrical devices and can be dangerous to repair - please use this advice at your own risk

2007 J-480.  Waterfall has stayed on for 3 years straight.  No issues at all.  We use N2 cartridge w/ chlor & mps.  Fairly heavy use w/ wife & 2 kids. 

Enjoy!

I've ran mine both ways, and seen absolutely no difference.

2003 370 & run waterfall and ozone 100% of the time.  There was an issue with the waterfall on these older models (rubber seal) but mine was replaced 2 years ago under factory warranty
...The gene pool could use a little chlorine....

Quickly approaching a mid-life crisis one day at a time.
