Never clean hot tub filter again, is that possible?

Whirlpool Filter reinigen

hot tub filter cleaning is now over forever

Thanks to the unique EGO3 filter technology, you can avoid the hassle of cleaning the hot tub filter without additional costs

We all know this. The hot tub shows an error message that the hot tub filter are clogged or it shuts off completely and no longer heats. Therefore, we all have to clean the filters of our whirlpool constantly (usually way too often). And as we all know, this is quite cumbersome. When unscrewing, a lot of dirt from the paper cartridge filter goes back into the water. Then you have to rinse it - soak it in a cleaning solution - rinse again - preferably with high pressure and especially actually from the inside out (which is almost impossible). The parts are usually very bulky, sometimes they don't even fit in a sink, and in winter, the mess with the wet things is a nightmare anyway. And after 3, 4, 5 times cleaning, it's over and we have to buy the next filter again and lose another 30-80 euros depending on the hot tub brand.

With the EGO³ hot tub filter, it is much easier. The dirt stays in the filter. The cleaning is very quick and easy, and when the filter material eventually can no longer be cleaned, it is simply replaced with new material, but at least it is much cheaper.

Because the material is very inexpensive, we calculated what happens if you simply never clean the balls. That means, if the balls are very heavily soiled, they are simply replaced with new ones.

Here is our calculation for a hot tub filter cleaning with two filters:

  • The circulation filter already filters out about 90% of the dirt, which means that the second filter only needs to be replaced about every fourth time.
  • The EGO3 filter needs to be cleaned approximately every 8-16 weeks. We calculate with the midpoint of 12 weeks.
  • The dirt does not distribute evenly, meaning the upper balls are already very heavily soiled. However, the bottom balls are hardly soiled at all. So, when replacing, only about 80% of the balls are replaced.
  • All this results in a demand of 45 balls per year for the circulation filter and 12 balls for the massage pump filter.
  • In a big bag EGO3 filter balls, there are about 250 filter balls. This costs 99 euros including shipping if I order it individually.
  • That results in 25.22 euros in costs per year!

RESULT:

25.22 euros per year and you NEVER have to clean hot tub filter again!

 

Even if you use the pool very, very heavily, we even double that and take 50,- into the calculation. But that is still much cheaper than repurchasing replaceable paper/fleece filter cartridges, but as I said never clean filters again and the additional benefits such as less chemical requirement, clearer water, and longer lifespan of the components come for free!

Conclusion: Even if you never clean EGO3 filter balls but simply replace them, this system is significantly cheaper than all existing hot tub filter with filter paper or filter fleece. And there is nothing against it for environmental reasons either. Old filter cartridges are residual waste that goes to the landfill. EGO3 filter material is made from recycled material and is recycled again. So you actually produce no waste.
