Sundance Spa Filters – The filter helps to keep the water in your tub clean, clear and welcoming to get into.

Filters

Each hot tub has a certain filter that will work with that tub. The filters come in many sizes and shapes, but there is only one that will fit your particular tub.

Sundance Spa Filters – To find out what type you have or need to buy there are a couple of ways to find out which one you need. The first is look in the owners manual to find the filter listed for your tub. You can ask your hot tub dealer which one you need by supplying him the make and model of your tub. Or, you can take out the old one and measure the dimensions of it.

Sundance Spa Filters – Each filter should be replaced about once a year. No only that, you need to clean them on a regular basis. Once every two to three weeks is a good time to clean the filter. It only takes a few minutes and makes a big difference in keeping your hot tub inviting.

Sundance Spa Filters – The way to clean most filters is to take the filter out and spray it with a high pressure hose attachment on your garden hose or with a small power washer. You want to get into and between each of the fins on the filter to clean out all of the dirt and debris that has accumulated. If you do this regularly, it will make the filter last longer, work more efficiently and help to keep the water looking great.

Sundance Spa Filters – Before you take out the filter, turn off the power to the tub at the breaker panel. You need to do this to prevent the tub from circulating water through the system without a filter in place.

Sundance Spa Filters – New filters cost anywhere from $10 to $100 or more. It depends on the filter model that your tub uses. There are many places that you can buy a new hot tub filter including local retailers and a number of places online. Do a little shopping around as the price can very greatly. Just make sure that the one you purchase is the right one for your tub.
