Title: Fresh Water cartridges
Post by: Tatooed_Lady on March 31, 2006, 04:27:24 pm

I got the "Fresh Water" cartridge, and I'm wondering....is this the same as the N2 cartridge? It LOOKS like N2...It says "N2" on the side, unless it's another similar product?
Guess I'm a little confused over something else silly....  :-[

The Yellow N2 cartridges are the same inside. They do not have the little tabs that keep them from falling down into the plumbing on a  HotSpring spa.

If you want to use the yellow ones, you have to use the little extension sticks that come with them. You stick 'em on the cartridge and break off enough so you can close the filter cap, but still get the things out in four months.

DO NOT leave them in longer than four months.

*LOL* thanks, Chas.....yeah, I caught the thread regarding people leaving those things in for months.....years.....this is something I see as a "replace at every water change" type thing.
Thank you for clearing up the difference!
