This one piece of equipment that takes such good care of you is the sap filter. There are a few different spa filters available and each with its own special advantages. You have your diatomaceous earth filters and sand filter which uses its name sake as a filter medium. Inside each filter of this type contains a specified amount of sand and gravel which get mixed around as the water goes through pulling out the dirt and debris. Although with a filter such as this some of the microscopic particles escape, an easy preventative products which coagulate the particles to larger pieces so that the filter can catch them. Every few years you will need to add or replace the sand in there, but be very careful as each filter requires very specific sand.
