How to change the cartridge in your Jacuzzi J-380
Watch the guide or follow the steps.
- 1Switch the spa off at the isolating switch or switchboard; Jacuzzi says always turn the power off before cleaning the filters.
- 2Lift the filter cover off its retaining clips and tilt it forward. Unclip the skimmer bag and empty it.
- 3J-300: turn each cartridge handle anticlockwise and lift it out. J-400, J-500 and J-LX from 2023: the 6000-383AJ is filter 2, the skimmer filter; unscrew it anticlockwise the same way.
- 4Rinse the pleats from the top down with a hose, or fit new cartridges. If you use a chemical feeder, it goes back on the filter nearest the front of the spa.
- 5Hold both cartridges under water to let the air out, then screw them back in clockwise. Do not over-tighten.
- 6Refit the skimmer bag, press the filter cover down onto its clips and turn the power back on.

About your Jacuzzi J-380
Jacuzzi spa — J-300 Collection. Its cartridge is the ProClear 60 sq ft filter 393 x 169 mm (6000-383AJ), part 6000-383AJ, changed every 18 months.
Other cartridges the maker lists for this spa: Jacuzzi ProClarity depth filter 120 x 120 mm (6473-161J) (every 3 months). 2014 and later, only when the spa has the 2472-234 ProClarity canister: depth filter inside the canister.
Where the model number is: The model (J-345, J-435) is on the ID plate on the base pan or inside the cabinet under the touchpad, and many spas have a SmartTub QR sticker beside the touchpad. On swim spas the plate is on the cabinet panel at the swim-jet end. The year matters for some models, so note it too.
