Why Spa and Hot Tub Filtration Matters
The Role of Filtration
Filtration removes dirt, debris, oils, and particles from your hot tub or spa water. Proper filtration keeps water clear and protects pumps, heaters, and filters.
How It Works
Water passes through a filter cartridge or media, trapping impurities. Clean water circulates back, improving sanitizer efficiency. Poor filtration can lead to cloudy water, scaling, and increased chemical use.
Types of Filtration Systems
Standard filters capture particles, while advanced systems may include sand, diatomaceous earth, or cartridge upgrades. Some spas have multi-stage filtration for extra clarity.
Maintenance Tips
Rinse filters weekly and deep-clean monthly. Replace them according to manufacturer guidelines. Proper filtration complements chemical balance for safe, clean water.
Filtration is the heart of hot tub and spa water care. Without it, maintaining water clarity and safety is difficult. Regular filter care ensures a comfortable and long-lasting spa experience.
