Spa Filter Cleaner - Ahh!some, Leisure Time or TSP?

[Triumph65]

Have read some posts on spa filter cleaners and wondering about which to use.
Also wondering which Ahh!some, the one I have appears to be different than the one marked with “filter cleaner”, see pics. The first pic, with brown tarp behind it is the Ahh!some I have and did purge with.

I have a relatively new acrylic hot tub, we’ve had a lot of use and filter probably needs to be soaked.

Current water values:
FC - 3
PH - 7.2
TA - 50
CH - 150
CYA - 30

Did a double Ahh!some purge when hot tub arrived. Used dichlor/bleach method to get to cya up and now use liquid bleach. Hot tub is acrylic and came with built in ozonator. Also getting a lot of foam and not sure why.

You can simply throw your filters into the tub when purging the tub with the Ahhsome tub cleaner and rinse them afterwards. This is all i use to clean mine. Inbetween purges they just get rinsed.
For right now you can simply dilute some of the Ahhsome tub cleaner you already own in a bucket/container & soak the filters in it then rinse them well. It won’t take much. I’m talking a smidgen.
You can certainly also use tsp but I wouldn’t run out & buy it just for that.
I have also in the past used diluted simple green pro D (this is different than plain simple green although I have heard of others using this & other degreasers)
But It can be sudsy & take alot of rinsing.
The bottom pic is a separate ahhsome product specifically for filters. While similar to the tub purge product I suspect it has a different concentration.
I have no experience with that particular leisure time product.

Ahh-Some filter cleaner

I purchased some Ahhsome filter cleaner from Amazon and it just came in today. (I have been using the hot tub cleaner from them for over a year now and love it) I am planning on cleaning my cartridges tonight. It says on their website that I only need to let them sit in a bucket with the...
