2. Shower Before Entering The Spa
Showering before entering the hot tub is recommended. This will remove any dirt, sweat, makeup, creams etc. from the skin which would only settle in the water. When entering the water with makeup or creams or hair products this runs the risk of cloudy & foamy water.
3. Care Entering & Leaving the Hot Tub
When entering and leaving the hot tub, be aware of the hot tub control panel, the audio system & other extras on your hot tub (drinks trays, towel rails, pop up speakers). Placing feet and weight on these parts could cause damage.
4. Check & Clean The Filters Regularly
Filters are easy to remove & cleaning takes only a few minutes. Products such as filter cleaner can be used to effeciently clean your filters. It’s also a good idea to buy a spare filter and rotate filters to keep the hot tub fresh plus give longevity to the filters. Filters should be changed annually.
5. Remove Headrests
6. Empty The Hot Tub Every 3 Months
The chemicals in a hot tub can erode the headrests if not removed & kept underneath the spa cover. Always remove the headrests when the hot tub is not in use.
It’s recommended to empty the hot tub every 12 weeks. This process which is also called flushing is essential to keep the hot tub running efficiently.
Always check the water balance as regular as possible. Checking the water balance before using the hot tub is compulsory.
