FILTERS ARE THE HARDEST WORKING COMPONENTS IN YOUR HOT TUB!
· The hot tub filter is brown (paper bag in color), gray or green or if it stays a dark yellow color after cleaning.
· The hot tub has been transferred to a new owner.
· The filtering element (the pleated part) becomes flat and loses its fibrous sheen.
· The hot tub filter top or bottom has a crack or split.
· The hot tub filter element starts to shred or come apart.
HOT TUB FILTER CLEANING TIPS: Clean filters thoroughly at least every 4-6 weeks depending on frequency of use and number of bathers.
Always clean when you drain and refill the hot tub for best water quality. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. First, hose filters off with a high-pressure nozzle. The hand-held water wand that attaches to your hose is perfect for the job. Second, we recommend using our SeaKlear Spa Filter Cleaner Spray.
HOT TUB FILTER HINTS
· Filters can appear to be clean visually, yet be plugged enough to cause flow and heater problems. The top reason hot tub owners call our service department: no heat. Over 90% of the time ‘no heat” is the result of clogged filters. There’s nothing wrong with the heater, but the high limit switch has shut the heater off (to protect it from overheating) due to restricted water flow.
· Use ScumBugs in your spa. They soak up oils that would otherwise clog filters. Replace every three months or when saturated.
· A Hot Spring Hot Tub provides completely balanced filtration, which means the square footage of your filters has been carefully matched to the gallons per minute flow rate of your hot tub.
Use only genuine Hot Spring filters that have been specifically designed to ensure your Hot Spring Hot Tub has clean, sparkling water day after day.
