How can I get the most out of my new hot tub?

• <div><p>It’s easy to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/11-tips-keeping-your-hot-tub-clean-and-guests-happy.htm">keep your hot tub clean</a> and safe for all to enjoy by following a few simple tips:</p><ul><li><p>Make sure anyone who uses the hot tub rinses themselves and their swimsuits off, perhaps in an outdoor shower near the hot tub. </p></li><li><p>Don’t add anything to your hot tub’s water. Bath oils and bubble bath liquids might seem like a fun addition to your hot tub experience, but these substances will turn the water in your tub foamy and its surfaces hard to clean. </p></li><li><p>Restrict eating in the tub to light snacks that you can easily clean out if there’s any spillage. Crumbs from crackers and chips can be difficult to pick up. </p></li><li><p>Make it a no-pet zone. Pet fur and dander can pose a cleaning issue, but it’s also not a great idea for your pet’s health and safety. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Where should you drain a hot tub?

• <div><p>Where you drain a hot tub largely depends on local regulations, but you must not drain chemically treated water where it can damage the environment. Direct the water toward a sanitary sewer drain that will take it to a treatment facility. If your lawn has a dedicated drainage area that’s free from plants and foundations, you can likely drain it there. Avoid storm drains, as the hot tub water will enter waterways and could hurt aquatic life. Likewise, do not pour it out directly on any public land or where it can get into your neighbors’ property. </p></div>

How often should a spa be serviced?

• <div><p>You should have your spa or hot tub inspected and serviced yearly to prevent more costly repairs. Regular <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-hot-tub-tips-soak-maximum-enjoyment.htm">hot tub maintenance</a> can save money and help keep you safe from hazards such as faulty wiring. Call a professional hot tub repair specialist, who will know what common issues to look for and have the parts and tools on hand to fix them immediately.</p></div>

Q: How long does a hot tub cover last?

• <div><p>The average life expectancy of a hot tub cover is between five and seven years. You can extend the life of yours by keeping it clean, using a soft cloth and mild dish soap; applying a vinyl protectant spray; using a cover lift to move and fold the cover carefully, rather than treating it roughly; protecting it from harsh weather; keeping kids and pets off the cover; and cleaning the underside of the cover with a chlorine spray. Investing in a quality cover will also help it last longer and look better.</p></div>

Q: Can you repair a hot tub yourself?

• <div><p>Whether you can repair a hot tub depends on the severity of the problem and the location. With the right tools and knowledge, you can fix problems like small leaks or switching out a dirty filter. However, electrical and plumbing issues require a licensed professional due to the inherent risk, particularly when mixing water with electricity.</p></div>
