Collection: Hot tub Chemicals

The ideal hot tub chemicals from Ego3 carefully selected for your hot tub

For years we did not sell hot tub chemicals because we want to give you, as a customer, brand-neutral advice on hot tub water care. However, we no longer want to watch our filter customers being poorly advised by other companies and have therefore decided to offer our own tested hot tub chemicals.

Hot tub chemicals with the same high quality factor as our Ego3 filters

Below you will find everything you need for disinfection, pH value, lime scale level, and care.

Hot tub chemicals and Ego3 filters

What impact does different hot tub chemistry have on the Ego3 filter or vice versa?

The sole purpose of a hot tub filter is to filter suspended particles from the hot tub. Ego3 filters filter just as well as cartridge filters all particles from 40 microns. After 1-2 weeks, due to a very special fiber technology, the Ego3 also filters everything from 0-40 microns. This truly achieves technically pure hot tub water, so you are not bathing in millions of invisible micro-particles. This naturally also supports hot tub water care by reducing the need for hot tub chemicals

The Ego3 filter always works perfectly regardless of the hot tub chemistry used

Certain chemicals like flocculants, all-in-one products (such as Aqua Finesse, Spa Balancer, etc.), or drain cleaners massively shorten the lifespan of cartridge filters and quickly lead to a significant reduction in filter performance. With the Ego3, due to its 40 times higher absorption capacity, no differences in lifespan are measurable.

Saltwater disinfection instead of hot tub chemicals

Saltwater systems, as offered by some hot tub manufacturers, also have no negative impact on the filter performance of the Ego3 filter.

Chemicals are always substances dissolved in water. Dissolved substances cannot be filtered (such as lime or magnesium). Only hot tub chemicals that create suspended particles as mentioned above (flocculants, all-in-one products – because they contain these types of flocculants – and drain cleaners, because they create suspended particles from pipe deposits) lead to more dirt and thus shorter filter life.

Type of Chemistry Cartridge filter Ego3 Filter
pH plus minus/plus no effect no effect
Disinfectants (chlorine, bromine, ozone, oxygen) increased demand reduces demand

Fragrances reduces no effect
Anti Foam reduces no effect
Pipe cleaner greatly reduced ideal for filtering out

Conclusion: Ego3 Filter and hot tub Chemicals are Allies!

We set out with the promise to develop the best hot tub filter. It must no longer have any flaws of cartridge filters. This also includes that it always works equally well and for the same duration, completely independent of any chemicals. Since every project participant has been a leader in the hot tub industry for over 20 years, we knew every disadvantage of cartridge filters in combination with hot tub chemicals and have eliminated them all with the Ego3 filter.

Unlike cartridge filters, the Ego3 filter always works equally well and for the same duration with every type of chemical in hot tubs or Swim Spas!

There are no negative effects from hot tub chemicals with the Ego3 filter.
