Hi,
I was hoping you could tell me how long I need to filter my spa for. If it is not in use for a period of time does it still need to be filtered.
Is there are miniman daily filtering time?
Thanks
Sue Manks
Answer
Hi Sue,
A spa should be filtered every day. If it’s an out of ground spa, they generally filter slowly for a long period. Ideally, you should filter your spa for two or three hours a day (regardless of whether you’re using it or not).
Regards,
Manfred
