Winter Hot Tub Care: Keep Your Spa Ready for the Season

As the temperatures drop in Campbell River, Nanaimo, and Parksville, ensuring your hot tub remains in optimal condition is essential for a relaxing soak during the colder months. Proper winter maintenance not only extends the life of your spa but also enhances your overall experience.

1. Maintain Water Levels

Regularly check and maintain the water level in your hot tub. Low water levels can cause the pump to malfunction, leading to potential damage from freezing. Ensure the water covers all jets adequately.

2. Monitor Water Chemistry

Cold weather can affect water chemistry. Test the water frequently to maintain balanced pH and sanitizer levels. Proper chemical balance prevents issues like algae growth and equipment corrosion.

3. Inspect and Clean Filters

Clean filters ensure efficient water circulation and heating. Remove and rinse filters every two weeks, and consider replacing them if they show signs of wear.

4. Utilize a Quality Hot Tub Cover

Invest in a high-quality, insulated cover to retain heat and keep debris out. Ensure the cover fits snugly and is free from damage. Regularly remove snow accumulation to prevent strain on the cover.

5. Activate Freeze Protection

Many modern hot tubs come equipped with freeze protection settings. Activate this feature to prevent water from freezing in the pipes and equipment.

6. Schedule Regular Maintenance Checks

Even with diligent care, professional inspections can identify potential issues before they become major problems. Schedule a maintenance check with a certified technician to ensure all components are functioning correctly.
