Exclusive Bio-Clean™ Filter Cartridge
The filter cartridge is designed to remove dirt, sand, minerals, phosphates, bather waste and other solids from
the spa. Unfortunately, some spa owners fail to include filter cleaning as part of their chemical maintenance
plan. Filters accumulate debris and become prime areas for bacteria growth.
The Cal Spas™ exclusive Bio-Clean™ Filter is the only antibacterial filter cartridge on the market today.
Having a filter cartridge that prevents bacteria growth is added protection for those times you forget to clean the
filter. We recommend that you only replace your spa’s filter cartridge with a Bio-Clean™ filter cartridge for
ensured protection and peace of mind.
Cleaning the Cover, Shell and Pillows
Due to the constant punishment your spa cover and pillows receive, you should protect them by applying Vinyl
and Leather Cleaner as part of your monthly maintenance plan. Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather Cleaner is
specifically designed to protect spa covers and pillows from chemical and ultraviolet light damage. It
accomplishes this without leaving an oily residue behind that is normally associated with common automotive
vinyl protectants.
Use of Vinyl and Leather Cleaner
Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather Cleaner should be used sparingly. Incorrect usage may cause water clarity issues.
