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: What temp should I leave my hot tub on when not in use?

• <div><p>The general rule of thumb is to lower it by about five degrees when you know you&rsquo;re not using your hot tub for an extended period of time. With only a slight decrease in temperature, it will be easier to increase it to a desirable level when you&rsquo;re ready to get back in the water instead of starting from scratch.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to clean a hot tub with vinegar?

• <div><p>In most cases, it is safe to clean a hot tub with vinegar. You will want to verify that your hot tub manufacturer lists vinegar as a safe cleaning product; however, given that vinegar is chemical-free, cleans, deodorizes, and is safe for people and pets, it is usually a good option. You can use vinegar to clean the hot tub shell, interior and exterior spa surfaces, hot tub jets, hot tub filter, and other parts. It is considered a strong, safe, and natural cleanser that can kill bacteria, remove mold and mildew spores, erase water spots, and remove hard water stains.</p></div>

Q: How much does hot tub maintenance cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hot-tub-maintenance-cost.htm">Hot tub maintenance can cost</a> between <b>$240 and $900</b> annually. These costs include deep cleaning the tub, refilling the tub several times a year, and keeping the water's chemical balance. Keeping up with regular maintenance and cleaning tasks can help to keep your costs down, as you'll avoid more complicated and expensive repairs.</p></div>

Mike introduced Cory and they got right to work. They were very pleasant and explained what they were doing. Price was given over the phone before service so I know what to expect to pay depending on the condition of the unit and chimney.
