Arctic Spa Custom Series Filter Descriptions
Progressive Filters:
This simple and effective system uses multiple bags, all of which filter out different sized particles. Because of the Progressive Filter's ability to catch most particles, there is no need for enhancing chemicals such as stain and scale control or metal removers.

Alternative Pleated Filter Kit for Custom Series Spas:
Progressive Pre-Filters:
The Pre-Filter is used if you have contaminants in water or if you water is cloudy. To install the Pre-Filter, remove the blue filter floss at the top of the Progressive Filter. Then install the Pre-Filter in place of where the filter floss was located. Put the entire filter back in to the filter housing with the weir on top.
Custom Filter Weirs:
Black plastic canisters that go over the spa filter and protect it from large incoming debris. These weirs not only protect, but also indicate to you when the filters/pre-filters need replacing. When pump 1 is running during circulation, the weirs should pull down below the surface of the water. One will suck down completely, while the other bobs close to the water’s surface. If the weirs ever float above the surface while pump one is on, most likely the filters need to be cleaned or replaced.
