Having the proper hot tub filter that is cleaned regularly will help you to enjoy those soothing waters each and every day.

What Is A Hot Tub Filter Used For?
Like a water filter in your home, a hot tub filter filters out any debris that falls into or accumulates in your tub. 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 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. Before you take out the filter, turn off the power to the tub at the breaker panel.

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.
