"After a rather frustrating experience with a newly installed Steam Spa unit - which was consistently showing an EO error code on the control panel. We called several contractors with no one keeping the appointment or calling us back. We were beyond blessed to contact Matthew at Matthew Does Pools. Matthew showed up the very next day after we contacted him, and immediately started assessing the problem and troubleshooting. Matthew's professional and critical approach allowed him to pinpoint the issue (s), and got our Steam Spa unit working seamlessly. Our Jacuzzi Tub was also not turning on and Matthew was able to install a new switch and got our Jacuzzi working as well. We will definitely be calling Matthew Does Pools in the future for repair or installation of necessary equipment in our home. He is professional, courteous , pleasant and efficient. We will also refer him to our friends as someone who is very adept at troubleshooting and able to resolve problem issues THANK you - Matthew Does Pools ! We are one of your new customers and very satisfied with the service you provide."

Pool and Spa Servicing questions, answered by experts

No. In fact, some owners prefer to “summerize” their hot tubs and use them primarily over winter to enjoy the contrast of cold and hot water. It’s possible to keep the tub filled and running year-round, and some pros may even recommend this method compared to the work and risks of a full winterization every year.

However, keeping the hot tub running will require additional resources. You’ll use more power and more chemicals to keep it in good shape. Weigh the pros and cons of your situation before making a decision.

Hot tub heaters typically last seven to 10 years, though some might only last five years if not properly maintained. You can maximize your hot tub heater’s lifespan by ensuring the water’s pH level is properly balanced.

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’t add chlorine to your hot tub water more than once per day.

If your hot tub is well-maintained, covered tightly, and the water is balanced and sanitized correctly, it can remain unused for up to two weeks without significant issues. Beyond this period, the water quality may start to deteriorate, potentially leading to the growth of algae and bacteria. However, it's crucial to note that this timeline can change due to factors like water temperature, sanitation levels, and the quality of your hot tub cover. Regular maintenance and water testing are essential to ensure the water remains safe and clean during periods of inactivity.

Generally, it is more cost-effective and energy-efficient to leave your hot tub on all the time rather than turning it on and off. Reheating a hot tub from a cold temperature consumes a significant amount of energy, so maintaining a constant temperature is usually more economical, especially with frequent use.

For daily or weekly use, it's recommended to keep the water at a constant, reduced temperature, such as between 80 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit, and then increase it to your desired temperature before getting in. If you know you won't be using the hot tub for an extended period, you can lower the temperature to save on energy costs. However, if you use it very infrequently, you can turn it off completely, as long as there is no risk of the water freezing.
