FILTRATION
Water is recovered and filtered at two locations in all Arctic Spas. Surface water is taken in at the floating weir, while the deeper water is drawn in from suction fittings in the footwell. The weir filters debris before it gets to your pump and causes costly damage. This filter system is designed for the highest flow rate possible to increase the amount of water filtered daily. Filtration cycles are also fully adjustable to accomodate bather load. Most spa problems are caused by poor filtration. A filter that's operating properly helps keep the water clean by capturing the hair, oils and cosmetics that wash off when people use the spa. When the filter is dirty or clogged, all this debris remains in the water. Most spas have a cartridge filter. Check your owner's manual for detailed information on how to remove the filter for cleaning. Typically, you should clean the filter at least every 4-6 weeks.
What you need to do:
	Remove the cartridge
	Rinse with a garden hose to remove loose debris. A hose-end nozzle is best - a pressure washer has too much pressure. (Note: this will not eliminate the accumulated oils)
	Every time you clean your filter, use SpaGuard Filter Brite according to label instructions. This will dissolve and loosen the built-up oil and dirt.
	Thoroughly rinse the cartridge again. (Ideally, the cartridge should be allowed to dry before being returned to service)
	Return the cleaned cartridge to the filter housing
	Replace the filter element as often as the manufacturer or SpaGuard Dealer recommends
	Use SpaGuard Polysheen weekly.
Some particles of debris are microscopic and too small for the filter to catch. Polysheen will help join these tiny particles together and allow the filter to remove them, keeping the water clear.
