ZOTEE Hot Tub Filter Cartridge 2-Pack — PAS-1342/Jacuzzi J300 Fit, 15-7/16" x 6-5/8", 60 sq.ft. Pleated

ZOTEE hot tub replacement filters: two pleated cartridge filters engineered to match PAS-1342/Jacuzzi J300-style dimensions for reliable spa circulation and debris capture.

If your spa or hot tub is running cloudy or the circulation feels weak, replacing worn filter cartridges is one of the fastest ways to restore proper water turnover. These ZOTEE replacement cartridges are manufactured to fit common OEM models (PAS-1342, Jacuzzi J300, Filbur FC-2715, Unicel 6CH-961 and equivalents) and reproduce the original sizing and connection points so installation is straightforward.

Will these filters fit my spa model?

Measure your existing cartridge before ordering: ZOTEE cartridges measure 15-7/16" long with a 6-5/8" outside diameter, open slotted top, and a 2" SAE bottom connection. They are designed as direct replacements for several listed OEM part numbers and work where those same critical dimensions and fittings are used.

• Length: 15-7/16" — verify against your old cartridge.
• Outside diameter: 6-5/8" to match the filter housing clearance.
• Top: open with vertical slots for proper flow routing.
• Bottom: 2" SAE connection to mate with standard manifolds.

How do these pleated filters improve water quality?

Pleated media increases the surface area available to trap dirt and particles without increasing the cartridge footprint. That means more contaminants are captured between cleanings and the filter maintains higher flow rates for longer, helping pumps work efficiently and reducing strain on the circulation system.

• 60 sq.ft. filtration area to collect fine debris.
• Pleated construction resists collapse and holds shape under flow.
• Durable fabric for repeated rinsing and seasonal use.

What is the recommended cleaning and installation process?

Rinse the cartridge gently with a garden hose to remove loose debris; avoid high-pressure jets or wire brushes that can tear the media. For best results, perform a monthly rinse during peak use and a deeper soak with a filter cleaner at season changes. Installation is simple: align the top slots and seat the 2" SAE end into the manifold, using a small amount of waterproof lubricant if needed to ensure a snug, leak-free fit.

• Rinse with low-pressure water; no abrasive tools.
• Soak periodically with a commercial filter cleaner for deep dirt removal.
• Use waterproof pool grease on mating surfaces for easier assembly.

How long will each filter last and when should I replace them?

Longevity varies with usage, water chemistry, and maintenance. With regular rinsing and occasional cleaning, a pleated cartridge can last many months to a couple of seasons; replace sooner if the pleats show tears, permanent staining, or reduced flow despite cleaning. Keeping a pair on hand lets you swap filters quickly while one soaks clean.

• Typical life: several months to multiple seasons with care.
• Replace if pleats are ripped or flow doesn’t recover after cleaning.
• Keep spare cartridges to minimize downtime during cleaning cycles.
