Fundamentals of Filters – A Quick Guide to Hot Tub Filter Maintenance

A Quick Guide to Hot Tub Filter Maintenance

Spa filters may be more important than you realize. They skim out most of the gunk that is flowing through the hot tub so that you don’t have to soak in it, making your tub time much more enjoyable and your chemicals more effective.

However, if you don’t keep clean & replace them regularly, those dirty or worn out filter cartridges can really put a strain on things up in your spa plumbing. Think about it this way: if you were to never empty your vacuum’s bag or canister, how well would the vacuum run? Not very well at all!

So to help you get a good filter maintenance routine going, we made this Quick Guide infographic. We broke it down into three steps:

• Refresh
• Rotate
• Replace

If you do need to replace your cartridges, Clarathon Ultra Premium Filters are the highest quality spa filters for the best price, and the Fast Filter Finder makes finding the perfect one quick and easy.
