TO SERVICE O-RINGS
Of the housing Main O-Ring, Ports and Extension Rings
1. Remove the O-ring. It is important never to use a sharp instrument when removing an O-ring as this
may damage the O-ring groove or the O-ring itself. A bobby pin or edge of a credit card works well.
2. Once the O-ring is removed, it should be examined for damage. Check to make sure that the O-ring is
free of nicks and cuts and that it retains its original round profile. O-rings that appear to be damaged
should be discarded immediately and replaced with new O-rings.
3. Rinse the O-ring with fresh water and dry it with a clean lint free cloth.
4. Clean the O-ring groove (where the O-ring sits) with a Q-tip. Be sure to remove any lint the Q-tip may
leave behind. Inspect the groove for damage.
5. Wipe the part of the housing that the O-ring seals against with a clean lint-free cloth.
6. Re-grease the O-ring with a thin layer of O-ring grease until it appears to be smooth and shiny. Do not
over grease it. Use just enough grease so the O-ring will pull smoothly through your fingers.
Excessive amounts of grease will only serve to attract dirt to the o-ring.
7. Make sure that the O-ring is properly (evenly) installed in the O-ring groove.
8. To reinstall the clean and lubricated O-ring, place the entire O-ring over the groove and start by pushing
the O-ring in at each corner then, push the O-ring at each side and finally, work in the rest of the O-ring.
Never start at one end and work your way around the O-ring. This places uneven tension on the O-ring
which may cause the O-ring to stretch resulting in excess O-ring, which will have no place to go.
There are internal O-rings on the housing controls as well. These O-rings are not as susceptible to damage
as they are not exposed but they do require yearly maintenance and are not user serviceable. The housing
should be returned to AQUATICA or to an authorized AQUATICA service facility for this annual maintenance.
Check the Web site www.aquatic.ca for the closest service center.
An internal moisture alarm is available for your AQUATICA A30D housing (Product # 18796). This alarm is
available through your authorized AQUATICA dealer and can be easily installed.
