Q: How often do you need to change the water in a swim spa?

• <div><p>How often you change the water in your swim spa depends on how often you use it. Most manufacturers recommend changing the water every three to six months. If you use your swim spa throughout the seasons, it&rsquo;s a good idea to set up a quarterly deep cleaning schedule. The ideal instructions should be in the owner&rsquo;s manual.</p></div>

Q: Should I keep my hot tub running all the time?

• <div><p>Yes, hot tubs are meant to be kept on permanently. It takes more energy to ramp up a hot tub when you turn it on, so leaving it on all the time is more efficient for your hot tub. You can turn the temperature down if you know you won&rsquo;t be using it for an extended period of time to save on energy costs.</p></div>

Q: What are the cons of owning a hot tub?

• <div><p>Though a hot tub has many benefits, there are a few cons. Mainly, hot tubs require a lot of maintenance. You&rsquo;ll need to deep clean yours quarterly, test the pH at least once or twice a week, and add sanitizing chemicals once a week. They also have relatively high ongoing costs since you&rsquo;ll need to pay for electricity and repairs. </p></div>

Q: How often should you put chlorine in your hot tub?

• <div><p>You should put chlorine in your hot tub on a regular basis. To keep bacteria away, keep the chlorine level in your hot tub at between 3-5 mg/l, which may mean you need to add chlorine daily or at least every two to three days. Don&rsquo;t add chlorine to your hot tub water more than once per day.</p></div>

Was called to fix water leak in main line of sprinkler system and all they did was change some sprinkler heads. Charged me a a thousand dollars to change a few sprinkler heads and never fixed the water leak. Will never recommend them to anyone or use their services again.

It’s easy to keep your hot tub clean and safe for all to enjoy by following a few simple tips:

Restrict eating in the tub to light snacks that you can easily clean out if there’s any spillage. Crumbs from crackers and chips can be difficult to pick up.
