The filter did what it was supposed to. It seemed to take about the same time to balance my hot tub water with or without the filter. #sweepstakes

Keeps the spa water balanced longer.

Clear water

It worked great!

great product to make fill your spa faster and cleaner

I use this filter attached to the end of my Garden Hose when refilling my Hot Tub after Cleaning.

Purchased several other types of filters and this one is simple and works very well. With direct well water, the amount of particles can vary along with whatever matter is lining the hose. This filter takes care of restricting all of that from entering our hot tub.

I ordered two. One of them arrived with hose end unattached. Company sent a new one without hesitation.

Seems to work as advertised

I was informed by an owner of a local pool maintenance and supply company that using these to fill a pool is not recommended because the plaster needs the minerals from the water (if the water is too clean it will leach it from the plaster). I don't know if that's true. However, we can use the filter to reduce the amount of particulates added to the pool. So that's what we do. With time the filter gets heavy from mineral and iron deposits (it turns rusty brown in addition to that hard water crud). I can't say if it will stretch out the length in between water changes (for us we just changed it after a little over 5 years) but from the deposits from the filter it does seem to work. We've gone through three filters in a year (two of these and one more expensive heavy duty filter).
