Ft.","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"pz-pdp\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOverview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Unicel 5CH-402 is a pleated polyester cartridge filter element engineered for premium spa filtration applications, providing 40.0 sq ft of effective media area on a compact spa-format chassis. Media construction utilizes Reemay-grade nonwoven polyester with nominal 20-micron filtration efficiency, supported on a perforated structural core with ABS injection-molded end caps configured in a top-handle, closed-bottom geometry for single-cartridge manifold seating. The element is rated for continuous service at temperatures to 115°F with intermittent excursions to 120°F, accommodating the elevated thermal duty cycle of fully insulated portable spas. End cap bonding and fabric heat-set retention are specified for sustained operation under typical spa circulation pressures of 5–15 PSI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpa cartridge service intervals require accelerated cycles relative to pool elements: fresh-water rinse every 2–4 weeks, chemical soak (dilute TSP or dedicated enzyme cartridge cleaner) every 4–6 weeks to remove body oils, lotions, and surfactants that resist mechanical rinse. Replace at 12–15 month intervals under typical residential spa duty, or earlier if ΔP rises ≥ 5 PSI above clean-element baseline, if fabric channeling is visible, or if pleat geometry shows permanent deformation. Chemical compatibility: polyester media tolerates continuous service at ≤ 10 ppm free available chlorine or ≤ 30 ppm total bromine; muriatic acid soak at 1:20 dilution is approved for calcium scale removal (20-minute maximum exposure, full rinse before reinstallation). Verify ozone and non-chlorine shock compatibility with spa manufacturer specifications prior to use in supplemental sanitization systems. Standard Unicel 90-day manufacturing defect warranty applies through authorized distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour order includes the selected quantity of replacement spa filter cartridges.
