Getting Your Hot Hub Ready For Your Holiday
Before you jet off for some well-deserved relaxation, there’s one thing you shouldn’t forget: your hot tub. A neglected hot tub can become a breeding ground for bacteria while you’re away, leaving you with a not-so-pleasant surprise upon your return.
Fear not! Here’s a quick guide to get your bubbly oasis ready for your absence:
Chemical Check-Up
Before you close the lid:
- Make sure your water chemistry is balanced.
- Test the pH and alkalinity levels, ensuring they fall within the recommended range.
- Load your chemical dispenser with your usual chlorine or bromine tablets and adjust the flow to release slowly.
A clean filter is essential too, so remove and clean your filters thoroughly.
Turning Down the Heat (Literally)
There’s no point in heating an empty tub! Lowering to the minimum temperature will save energy and extend the lifespan of your sanitiser. However, if you’re expecting freezing temperatures, consult your owner’s manual for winterisation instructions to prevent pipes from bursting.
