How can I make sure my hot tub is installed and used safely?

• <div><p>Follow these <a href="https://www.esfi.org/pool-and-spa-safety/">general safety tips for spas and hot tubs</a>:</p><ul><li><p>Keep your exterior electrical receptacles covered and dry, especially around your hot tub and pool during periods of use.</p></li><li><p>Make sure you have a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) properly installed to ensure no one gets accidentally shocked or injured by electrocution. </p></li><li><p>Don’t use the hot tub or your pool during a thunderstorm. </p></li><li><p>Before using the hot tub, have a certified electrician thoroughly inspect your hot tub and its wiring to make sure you’re in full compliance with all applicable local building codes. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

How do you refill a hot tub after winter?

• <div><p>To refill a hot tub after winter, start by opening up the tub and giving it a quick cleaning. If you use antifreeze, drain out the water then grab a hose and thoroughly clean the tub shell out, spraying water into each jet of the tub. </p><p>Reconnect the hot tub and turn the power back on. When it’s time to fill the tub again, insert the hose into the filter well (if available). Avoid trapping too much air in the water lines, which can cause the pump to lock up when it starts again. Add the necessary chemicals and start the heating process. It will take some time—most of a full day—for the water to heat up again.</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: Is it more expensive to repair or replace a hot tub?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hot-tub-repair-cost.htm">Hot tub repair costs</a> are less expensive than purchasing a new one, especially if your warranty is still intact. You can shop for a secondhand unit or find a deal for a trade-in. If the price to repair your hot tub is higher than the cost of a new one, consider replacing your unit. </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>
