Life Spa Scoop

The Life Spa Scoop is a hand-held mesh skimmer net for hot tubs and spas. Use it to scoop floating debris — leaves, bugs, hair, lint, surface foam — off the water before any of it reaches your filter or settles to the bottom of the spa. A 30-second scoop after every use saves your filter days of work.

Why this is one of the simplest spa-care wins: Anything that lands on your spa surface either gets sucked into the filter (loading it up faster) or sinks to the bottom (where it slowly breaks down and feeds bacteria). A quick scoop with the Spa Scoop intercepts surface debris before either happens. It takes 30 seconds, requires no chemicals, and dramatically reduces how often you're cleaning the filter or vacuuming the bottom of the spa.

When to use it: Scoop the surface every time you open the cover, before you climb in. Also scoop after windy days, after autumn leaf drop, or any time you notice visible debris on the water. Pair with a Rescue Bag in your Active Skim filter housing for a complete debris-management setup on 2011+ Arctic Spas.

Quick tips:

• Rinse the scoop with the garden hose after each use — dried-on debris is much harder to dislodge
• If your spa sits under deciduous trees, a daily scoop in October is the difference between a clear spa and a clogged filter
• Store the scoop dry; the handle and net last much longer if not left wet between uses
