Swim Spa & Hot Tub Filters

Why do I Need a Filter for My Hot Tub or Swim Spa?

Investing in a filter is an efficient way to keep your hot tub or swim spa clean and to enhance your experience. They work to capture oil, debris, and other contaminants that can dirty your water and leave it unsanitary. 

Besides sifting through debris and dirt from the outside air, hot tub filters also work to cleanse the water of body oils. Whether you are enjoying your hot tub or swim spa alone, or have multiple people using it, your water will contain body oils from people being in it. When oils are not filtered they can not only clog equipment, but also make for an unsanitary experience.

Besides keeping your water clear of any impurities, a filter is also a great accessory to have because it helps to extend the lifespan of your equipment. Clean filters make for a more efficient spa that can help save you money. By keeping your hot tub clean, you are helping to prevent bacteria, algae, and other debris from entering different parts of your tub. This can help to avoid equipment problems.

Purchasing a Hot Tub Filter

When you are purchasing a hot tub filter, you want to get the right size. The one you’ll need will depend on the size and model of your hot tub or swim spa. You’ll find that there are several different ones to choose from.

At Wellis Spas, we can help you find the right filter for your product so that it fits and works properly. It’s often recommended to have a couple of sets of filters on hand so that you can interchange them when you need to take one out to clean. You don’t want your hot tub or swim spa to operate without a filter. Keep any extra filters in a clean, dry place away from sunlight. This will help to keep them in the best condition possible when they’re not in use.

How Should I Clean my Hot Tub Filter?

Investing in a hot tub filter is just the first step. You need to keep it clean if you want it to work properly. Cleaning your hot tub filter regularly will help you to have the cleanest water and ensure that your filter is doing its job.

You’ll want to rinse your filter weekly to get rid of any loose debris. Use a specialized filter cleaning solution monthly to give your filter a deeper clean and to get rid of contaminants that a weekly rinse can not.
