Sundance® 680 MicroClean Mini Outer Filter – Pleated Cartridge (2023+) – part #6473-249S

Q: Which Sundance® models use this filter?

A: Compatible with Sundance® 680 Series spas built from March 2023 and later, including Alicia, Edison, McKinley, Prado, Peyton, and Ramona.

Q: How does the outer filter differ from the inner one?

A: The outer filter (#6473‑249S) captures larger debris and is rinsable. The inner filter (#6473‑283S) catches ultra-fine particles and oils and must be replaced—both together provide dual-stage filtration.

Q: How frequently should I replace or clean the outer filter?

A: Rinse every 1–3 months, and replace every 3–6 months based on water usage and rinse effectiveness.

Q: Can I buy this filter as part of a set?

A: Yes—SKU 6541‑460S includes both the outer and inner filters for one complete MicroClean Mini system.

Turn off spa power and open the filter compartment.

Remove the used outer cartridge (6473‑249S).

Rinse the pleated media thoroughly with clean water and a filter cleaning solution if needed.

Slide in the new or cleaned outer cartridge, ensuring proper positioning over the inner filter.

Close and secure the filter compartment, then restore spa power.

Clean the outer filter every few months and replace after 3–6 months depending on usage.
