Spa water is cloudy or foamy even with correct temperature and circulation

Safety first: Avoid using the spa until water clarity is restored.

Cloudy or foamy water is typically a maintenance issue.

• Increase filtration: Extend filter cycle durations in the American Whirlpool control settings.
• Clean or replace filter: Thoroughly clean the filter cartridge or install a new one.
• Use defoamer sparingly: Apply a spa-approved defoamer to temporarily reduce foam, but address underlying causes.
• Drain and refill if needed: If water is old or TDS is high, drain the spa, clean the shell, and refill with fresh water, then balance chemicals.
