When your hot tub displays a low flow error, or your water loses its crystal clear sparkle, a clogged cartridge is the usual culprit. For spa owners across the Twin Ports region, restoring peak flow starts with a trip to The Hot Tub Store at 4881 Miller Trunk Highway. Our Hermantown showroom stays fully stocked with Spa Star Filter Cleaner in professional quart bottles. This fast-acting formula breaks down tough organic oils and mineral scaling that lock onto your filter pleats, ensuring your Sundance, Jacuzzi, or premium pre-owned spa circulates water effortlessly all spring long.
Sub-zero winter temperatures keep your hot tub cover tightly sealed, trapping body oils, cosmetic residues, and airborne contaminants inside the water matrix. If you reside in the 55803 or 55811 zip codes, your filtration system works double shifts during the coldest months. Over time, these trapped particles combine with local water minerals to form a dense, calcified crust over the fabric pleats. Standard garden hose rinsing simply slides off this barrier. You need a specialized chemical soak to penetrate the fibers and unlock locked-in debris.
Deep cleaning your filter requires patience to achieve maximum penetration. First, power down your hot tub completely to prevent any unfiltered debris from entering your plumbing lines. Carefully remove the cartridge from the filter well and give it a preliminary spray with a garden hose to clear loose hair and debris. Next, fill a clean plastic bucket with fresh water and add the recommended dosage of Spa Star Filter Cleaner according to the quart bottle instructions. Submerge the filter entirely, allowing it to soak for at least one hour for light cleaning, or overnight for heavy post-winter accumulation.
