Filter FAQs
How oen should I clean my lters?
This will depend on your usage, but we recommend
you clean them at least once every fortnight.
Heavy usage will mean your lters clog up quicker.
However, the situaon is dierent when you ll your
hot tub for the rst me, or whenever you drain and
rell your hot tub. In this instance, the lters may
clog up within three–four days because of the small
parcles contained in tap water and any parcles
from manufacturing/transport.
What will happen if I don’t clean my lters
regularly enough?
Failure to clean your lters may restrict water ow
causing the hot tub to automacally shut down. The
following diagnosc messages may appear on your
touch pad if your lters are dirty; FLO, Heater Dry, LF,
DR, OHH, or -- (two lines). To conrm that the lters
are the cause of the problem, remove them and run the
hot tub for a few minutes to see if the message clears.
If the message sll does not clear, try switching the
hot tub o whilst the lters are removed, and then
back on again.
Please note, you MUST NOT run the hot tub without
lters. If the message sll appears aer trying these
measures, please contact a member of the Superior
Wellness team to arrange a visit from a technician.
How do I clean my lters?
To clean your lters, we recommend using a hot tub
lter cleaner. For opmum results, spray the lter
evenly with an instant lter cleaner, wait 15 minutes
and then rinse the lter with a hose. An addional
recommended cleaning method is to soak the lters in
a bucket overnight with a lter cleaner soluon. This
soluon breaks down oils from the pleats and gives the
lter a deep clean. Please ensure your lter is air dry
before placing back into your hot tub
What lters do I need for my hot tub?
Each hot tub model is dierent; therefore, it is
important you use the correct lter for the hot tub
you’ve purchased. Please refer to our Hot Tub Care
and Maintenance guide to check which lter you need.
Keeping your lters clean is vital for the safety and longevity of your hot tub.
Make sure you dedicate me to cleaning your lters to help keep the water
in your hot tub fresh and sanised.
TOP TIP:
It’s good pracce to have mulple lters.
When you carry out a drain and rell
of your hot tub (and a chemical soak),
replace with your other lter. Alternate
the lters each me you do this.
TOP TIP:
Never leave your hot tub without
a lter inside of it unless you have
emped the spa.
