Q: Should I shock my hot tub every day?

• <div><p>Shocking your hot tub means adding extra chemicals to the water. Most spa experts recommend doing this once a week for proper hot tub maintenance, but you can do it more if needed. Shocking has multiple benefits, including preventing the water from becoming murky and it&rsquo;s essential in removing harmful bacteria from the water.</p></div>

Q: Can you transport a hot tub on its side?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to move a hot tub on its side or base as long as it fits snugly in the moving truck, with plenty of padding around it. This moving method requires specialized equipment and careful planning, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-use-moving-straps.htm">moving straps</a>, dollies, and moving blankets.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to leave a hot tub on all the time?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s less expensive to leave your hot tub on all the time, though you&rsquo;ll want to keep it at a reduced temperature. How much you use the hot tub is also a factor. You&rsquo;ll want to keep it at a constant temperature between 80 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit for weekly or daily use, then bump it up right before you get in. If you don&rsquo;t plan to use your hot tub that often, you can turn it off as long as there&rsquo;s no risk of freezing. </p></div>

Q: Are air baths good for you?

• <div><p>Yes, air baths are good for you. They promote relaxation, improve circulation, and can even hydrate your skin. Since they&rsquo;re gentler than water jets and whirlpools, they are a good choice for a wide range of homes and users, from children to adults. You can maximize the benefits by using them regularly for stress relief and by pairing the bubble effects with calming music, low lighting or chronotherapy, aromatherapy, and other relaxation techniques.</p></div>

Q: Are hot tubs expensive to maintain?

• <div><p>Most newer hot tubs are not expensive to maintain. Hot tub maintenance costs about <b>$500 to $1,000</b> per year. You can DIY, but a pro can clean and treat your hot tub with chemicals and save you time. The biggest hot tub expenses are heating and repairs, but you can preserve your investment with regular maintenance.</p></div>

Recommended by 100% of Angi customers

Concrete Ink originated in 2011 with a vision of providing concrete flooring solutions for residential customers. We began our foray into the decorative concrete flooring business with the coloring (acid staining), and polishing of existing residential concrete basement floors. Creating an artful finished floor solution out of the existing 4″ thick concrete substrate proved to be a perfect marriage of utility and beauty. Since that time, we have been installing, training and broadening our scope of efforts to include retail, commercial and industrial flooring solutions for our clients. The positive feedback and increased demand for our residential work validated our original premise, and opened our eyes to the infinite creative possibilities within our industry. Over the years, we have focused on honing our skills by seeking out and training with the best instructors and installers in our industry. Our continued commitment to expanding our knowledge has sent us to California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Utah. Our client base now reaches across the United States, and we are proud of our reputation and results. We look forward to working with you soon! Contact us today for a FREE estimate
