Can I clean my hot tub filters in the dishwasher?

• <div><p>No, you cannot clean your hot tub filters in the dishwasher. While it may seem like a good idea, the dishwasher soap isn’t gentle enough for hot tub filters and can damage them. Gentle cleaning is better when cleaning the hot tub filters and keeping them intact.</p></div>

How much does it cost to repair a spa or hot tub?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hot-tub-repair-cost.htm">cost to repair a hot tub</a> or spa ranges from about $170 to $550, depending on the repairs needed. Some of the most common hot tub repairs include leaks, clogged filters, and tripped GFCI breakers. If it’s an electrical problem, you should contact a professional hot tub repair service. Don’t DIY electrical repairs on a hot tub, as poorly repaired wiring can make the hot tub a serious electrocution hazard.</p></div>

"John ******* the owner of the company scheduled an initial appointment with me on June 2nd 2020 at 3 pm. After taking time off of work to meet with him he texted me at 4 pm (an hour after he was supposed to be there) to reschedule for the following day. The first month went ok, but July and August were a nightmare. Constantly not showing up on the days scheduled, won't answer calls or text messages. It has been over a month since I have seen anyone for my pool. I have paid for services through September but have yet to hear from John or anyone else from this company. He is quick to send me a message for payment (which I have always paid promptly) but he won't respond when he is actually expected to do the job he was hired for. I do not recommend his services to anyone! I am very disappointed, because I went through Angie's List to get someone reliable and all I got was unprofessionalism and I'm out of money with nothing to show for it."

Pool and Spa Servicing questions, answered by experts

Yes, but only if it is a freshwater tub (not saltwater) and if you make sure the chlorine and bromine levels are below 1 ppm.

No, you cannot clean your hot tub filters in the dishwasher. While it may seem like a good idea, the dishwasher soap isn’t gentle enough for hot tub filters and can damage them. Gentle cleaning is better when cleaning the hot tub filters and keeping them intact.

When your hot tub is completely dry, there is typically no need to introduce antifreeze into the plumbing. However, if you desire an extra layer of protection against potential freeze damage, you can consider adding some RV antifreeze to your hot tub lines. Just ensure that you use RV antifreeze specifically, as automotive antifreeze is highly toxic and should be avoided.

The cost to repair a hot tub or spa ranges from about $170 to $550, depending on the repairs needed. Some of the most common hot tub repairs include leaks, clogged filters, and tripped GFCI breakers. If it’s an electrical problem, you should contact a professional hot tub repair service. Don’t DIY electrical repairs on a hot tub, as poorly repaired wiring can make the hot tub a serious electrocution hazard.

Using bubble bath, bath oils, bath salts, or moisturizing products that contain butters or oils can damage your jetted tub. Because of the water pump and jet mechanism, you need to be more selective with products for a jetted tub than you would for a traditional bathtub in order to keep it functioning properly and avoid expensive repairs. These products also leave residue that can feed mildew and mold, so it’s best to avoid them.
