Pressurized
filtration systems are recognized in the pool industry as the most
effective filtration system. You seldom find swimming pools that use
suction-side filtration systems. In addition, every Department of
Health nationwide will only allow pressurized filtration systems in
any commerical application.
-
A pressurized
filtration system is more expensive to manufacture and is a higher
quality system. Some manufacturers cut costs by using suction
side filtration systems.
-
Pressurized
Filtration Systems allow for better hydraulic efficiency. Water
bypasses the filter while the jets are on high to provide vigorous,
consistent hydrotherapy. The most important time for your spa to
filter is after you get out!
-
Pressurized
filtration systems are more sanitary. If you can see the filter in
the spa, like in a suction-side filtration system, the hands of
small children can touch the debris, body oils, and bacteria that
are caught by the filter -- little hands go into little mouths.
Pressurized filters are located in a canister that is
inaccessible to little hands but still easily accessible for
maintenance.
-
Pressurized
filtration systems capture debris and keep it contained when
removing the filters for cleaning and does not allow it to re-enter the main body
of water. When a suction-side filter is removed from it's
compartment, the debris that rinses off while removing the filter
returns to the main body of water.
-
Pressurized
filtration systems will save you money when replacing the filters
because it requires 60% - 70% less square footage of filter media to
do the equivalent job of a suction-side filter system. This means
suction filters will cost you $65 - $150 to replace versus $30 - $45
to replace most filters for pressurized systems.
-
The integrated
shell design of Emeralds Filtration System is more aesthetically
pleasing. You’re not sitting in your spa staring at your
filters as you might in a spa equipped with a suction-side
filtration system.
-
Emerald's
Filtration System allows more sitting room in your spa. Suction-side
filtration systems are very large and usually take up an entire seat
in the spa!
-
An automatic Bromine
Dispenser is built into the filter which ensures consistent
sanitizer levels.
-
Most importantly
Emerald Spas filtration does a better job of cleaning the spa water.
This, in conjunction with the automatic clean up cycles programmed
into the control system ensures sparkling clear water!
