Q: What is the fastest way to empty a hot tub?

• <div><p>You can drain a hot tub very quickly by using a submersible pump rather than the hose-sized drain at the bottom exterior of the tub. A pump can move up to 30 gallons per minute, draining your hot tub in no time. Using the regular drain can take up to two hours.</p></div>

Q: How do I prevent problems with my hot tub?

• <div><p>Properly maintaining your hot tub will <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/your-hot-tub-what-could-go-wrong.htm">prevent serious issues</a> from occurring down the road. You should replace the filter once a year, regularly look for and repair small cracks in the shell, and test the water quality every few months. You can do this yourself for less than $100 per year.</p><p>You can also hire a hot tub service to service your hot tub annually to identify problems early, which could save you money in the long run. They cost about $100 to $200 per call. </p></div>

Q: What is the best thing for cleaning a hot tub?

• <div><p>The best thing with which to clean a hot tub is whatever the manufacturer recommends; in most cases, this is a gentle surface cleaner and a soft cloth. Recommended hot tub cleaners can include specially formulated cleaning agents, mild dish soap, baking soda, vinegar, or diluted bleach. For your hot tub exterior, choose wood or vinyl cleaner (depending on the casing material).</p><p>You should never use household cleaning products, harsh chemicals such as undiluted bleach or acids, or abrasive cleansers or cloths, as these can scratch or etch your hot tub&rsquo;s coating or shell and cause permanent damage.</p></div>

Q: What should you not put in a jetted tub?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s best to avoid them.</p></div>

Q: How long does a hot tub motor last?

• <div><p>Most hot tub motors can last between five and 10 years; however, hot tub motors can burn out sooner if the hot tub water is not maintained or if the motors themselves are not maintained or protected from the elements. Since hot tub motors (also referred to as spa pumps) power the jets and circulate the water, they are important for the functioning of your spa. Buying a quality motor, keeping the hot tub filter clean, and keeping the wet end of the motor wet and the dry end dry can help them last longer.</p></div>

He was prompt and did not try to sell me a bunch of extra stuff. He did chip my new tub with the tile falling off the wall, but he did have it repaired it at his expense. I just was not "wowed" by his service/skills.
