Havuzpas Wellspring/Pleatco PBF40 Spa Filter 2-Pack — 40 sq ft Pleated, Trilobal Fabric (6" x 8")

High-efficiency twin replacement cartridges designed to fit Wellspring 10-00282 and Pleatco PBF40/PBF40M-style spa filter housings for clearer, longer-lasting hot tub water.

This two-pack of Havuzpas Wellspring 10-00282-compatible spa filters supplies 40 sq. ft. of pleated filtration each, engineered to trap fine particles and help maintain balanced water quality between deep cleans. Each cartridge measures 6" length, 8" outer diameter and a 3 1/4" core, and the trilobal fabric structure releases trapped debris easily during routine maintenance. The filters are manufactured as compatible replacement parts (not OEM) and are shaped with one round side and one oval side to match common core orientations found in Bullfrog, Pleatco, and Wellspring systems.

How do these filters improve hot tub clarity and maintenance?

The pleated design multiplies filtration surface area to capture suspended solids that cloud water, while the trilobal fabric helps debris rinse away during cleaning. Regular monthly cleaning keeps flow rates up and reduces the load on chemical sanitizers.

• 40 sq. ft. filtration area per cartridge for finer particulate capture
• Trilobal fabric sheds dirt, simplifying rinses and extending cartridge life
• Fits common Bullfrog, Pleatco PBF40/PBF40M and Wellspring cores
• Compatible alternative to OEM parts for cost-effective replacement

Will these cartridges fit my spa model and how do I orient them?

Measure your current filter to confirm compatibility: 6" long, 8" outer diameter, 3 1/4" inner diameter. One end of this cartridge is round and the other is oval—if your filter core has a tab, place the oval side facing down to clear the tab; otherwise compare shape to your existing cartridge before purchasing.

• Compatible with Pleatco PBF40, PBF40M, Wellspring 10-00282, SD-01389 and similar
• Two-piece set provides immediate replacement and backup
• Check core tabs and housing shape for correct oval-to-down orientation
• Not an OEM part—manufacturers’ names are for reference only

How should I clean and maintain these replacement filters?

Rinse cartridges every 2–4 weeks under a hose and deep-clean them monthly using a filter cleaner soak to dissolve oils and scale. Allow the cartridge to dry between deep clean cycles if removing for storage, and replace the cartridge when pleats show wear or flow is permanently reduced.

• Quick rinse removes loose debris; monthly soak removes oils and buildup
• Use manufacturer-recommended filter cleaner; avoid harsh detergents
• Inspect pleats and core—replace when damaged or permanently clogged
• Keep one cartridge installed and one as a ready spare for uninterrupted use

Who is this for: Havuzpas 2-pack Wellspring 10-00282-compatible cartridges are ideal for hot tub owners who need an affordable, effective replacement for Pleatco PBF40/PBF40M and similar filters. Choose these if you want a high-surface-area pleated cartridge that cleans easily, fits common Bullfrog and Wellspring housings, and provides a spare so you can maintain water flow while one cartridge dries after deep cleaning. These are not OEM parts, so verify measurements and core/tab orientation before ordering to ensure a correct fit for your spa system.
