Hot Tub Filtration
Most have their hot tub under control and always have wonderful water, so nothing stands in the way of enjoyment. Others, however, are in a constant struggle with their filtration and hot tub water care, and that should not be the case.
What is important for perfect hot tub filtration and water care?
So that nothing stands in the way of your enjoyment, two points are important.
- Water care - disinfection
- Water care - filtration
The disinfection must be right. The pH value should be between 6.8 and 7.2, and a suitable disinfectant must be used in the correct amount. If these two points are right, the water should also be right. The second point is to remove the dirt produced by the disinfection system. Because floating dirt makes care much more difficult.
As hot tub filter specialists, we will take a closer look at the second point.
There is the ancient filter technology of paper cartridge filters and the new EGO3 filters. Once you have tried the EGO3 hot tub filters, you will never want to use anything else. Why?
- Because the EGO3 hot tub filter can hold much more dirt, meaning even if I clean less often or forget, the hot tub filter is not immediately full and stops filtering. EGO3 hot tub filters can hold about 5 times as much dirt as conventional cartridge filters.
- Because the EGO3 hot tub filter filters everything, no matter how small the particles are. Paper filters can only filter parts down to about 40 microns. The finer particles below that simply remain in the water and continue to float around as micro dirt, barely visible to the eye. The water always has a slight odor, and the disinfection system (which does not need to see the dirt, it just needs to be there ;-)) has a much harder time. This is measured by the turbidity of the water in NTU. Tap water has about 0.5 NTU. Hot tub water remains around 0.5, but larger parts are filtered out by the filters and over time replaced by more and more microparticles from killed dirt. These almost invisibly burden the water. Not so with the EGO3 hot tub filter. Due to its special technology, it filters out every particle, no matter how small. This results in technically cleaned water (technical term) after about 2-3 weeks with a demonstrably measurable turbidity of 0.1 NTU. 0.1 NTU means that all dirt, no matter how small, has been removed from the water and the detection limit has been reached.
- Because the EGO3 hot tub filter does not recontaminate the water when changed. When unscrewing, all dirt particles remain in the cartridge. With the paper cartridge filter, as you have surely seen with your hot tub, countless dirt particles detach again and are immediately back in the water.
That you also save time and money with all these advantages is a nice additional effect :-)
