Filtration in hot tubs

I'm anxious to hear the answers.

Well that's why they need to change the water over many many times. Eventually you'll get it all. Even with No By pass filtration, not all the water in the tub gets filtered on the first change over. It's "All the water entering the pumps" gets filtered.
no?

Sales deception!!!!!
Are you saying that when the pump sucks the water out of the center of the filter, the vacuum created in the center of the filter can determine which side of the round filter the wier gate is on?
B S !!!

They filter without a bypass only during filtering cycles with pump on low speed. In essence, when your not using the spa.

Oh. I guess using a little bit of common sense would then dictate there is probably a little more hair, dead skin, toenails, dirt, and buttcheese in the spa when there are actually people USING the spa.
That's when I really like to have my water clean. Before and after is nice, too.
