How do you clean a spa filter?

It is vital your spa filter cartridges are maintained correctly to maximise their life. Filters need to be cleaned and how often depends on how often you use your spa. 

Filter clogging is caused by soaps, chemicals, perspiration, body fats, oils, and fine particles of dust or dirt. A blocked spa filter cartridge can put undue pressure on your pump and motor and decrease the life of these parts.

You can save money, reduce the wear and tear on your spa while prolonging the life of your filter by following a few basic maintenance steps.

Step 1. Remove your filters

Unscrew the filter or filters from the filter compartment of your spa and remove them.

Step 2. Place filters in a filter cleaning solution and soak

Step 3. Rinse filters with a filter cleaner

After your filters have soaked, remove them from the cleaning solution and rinse them with fresh water. Using filter cleaner will help you rinse them more thoroughly and efficiently. Filter cleaning wands clip straight onto your garden hose and allow you to clean deep inside the pleats of your filter.
