Clean That Filter

How long your spa filter lasts will depend on the type of water care system you are using, how well you care for the filters, as well as the type of filters you have. Here are a few tips! 

Proper filter care is very important. If filters are not cared for properly or disposed in the appropriate amount of time, not only will water clarity be difficult to maintain, but major mechanical failures can occur.

During the last several years that we have been in business, we have had over 20 different filters for our hot tub models! These filters fall into 3 main categories:
  • Standard paper filters*
  • MicroClean II filters (For 880 series Sundance spas 2005+)
  • Tri-X filters (optional for All Hot Spring models and standard on the larger models 2006+)

Standard paper filters have a life expectancy of 1 ½ - 2 years if cared for properly.
  • Baqua Spa: For tubs on the BaquaSpa chemical system, follow the 2x2 system. Every TWO weeks, please remove your filter and rinse with water. Every TWO months, soak your filter(s) overnight in the BaquaSpa filter cleaning solution.

  • Nature II/Chlorine: For tubs on the nature II/chlorine system, the filters should be soaked in Brilliance for spas filter cleaner every time you drain your spa.
Micro-Clean 
*Please note that the small white micro clean filter for older Sundance spas and current 780 series Sundance spas MUST be replaced every 3-4 months! This cannot be cleaned!


Micro-Clean II
MicroClean II filters should last anywhere  from 6-9 months depending on hot tub use. Cleaning this product in a filter cleaning solution will cause it to disintegrate.
  • Baqua Spa: For tubs on the BaquaSpa chemical system, spa performance will be greatly increased by remove the filter and rinsing with a hose on a monthly basis

  • Nature II/Chlorine: For tubs on the nature II/chlorine system, the filter should not need to be rinsed.

Tri-X filters have a life expectancy of up to 5 years.
  • Baqua Spa: Soak your filters in "BaquaSpa filter cleaner" over night at least every 3 months. Do not put your filters in the dishwasher

  • Nature II/Chlorine: Because the filters can become clogged with body oils, they should be chemically cleaned every 3-4 months using “Brilliance Filter Cleaner

  • Dishwasher cleaning: As long as you're not using BaquaSpa, you can put the tri-x filters in the dishwasher, but we do not suggest this as the only method of cleaning them. If you choose to occasionally clean your filters this way, make sure there is no detergent in the water, no rinse agent present and that your dishwasher is not on the dry cycle.
This should give you a few tips on filters. Please write in with any other questions.
