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>

Q: Can you transport a hot tub on its side?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to move a hot tub on its side or base as long as it fits snugly in the moving truck, with plenty of padding around it. This moving method requires specialized equipment and careful planning, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-use-moving-straps.htm">moving straps</a>, dollies, and moving blankets.</p></div>

Q: Do hot tubs add value to a house?

• <div><p>Hot tubs don&rsquo;t necessarily add value to a home&mdash;but they don&rsquo;t take it away either. It depends on the potential buyer. A well-landscaped in-ground hot tub is attractive to buyers who prioritize relaxation and fun. Others would rather not deal with the maintenance. </p></div>

Q: Should I shock my hot tub every day?

• <div><p>Shocking your hot tub means adding extra chemicals to the water. Most spa experts recommend doing this once a week for proper hot tub maintenance, but you can do it more if needed. Shocking has multiple benefits, including preventing the water from becoming murky and it&rsquo;s essential in removing harmful bacteria from the water.</p></div>

Q: How much electricity does a hot tub use?

• <div><p>Most hot tubs use between 1,500 watts and 6,000 watts of electricity, depending on the voltage of your heater. 120-volt heaters tip toward the low end, and 240-volt heaters tip toward the high end. Expect your pump to add another 1,500 watts. Newer, energy-efficient models use less electricity, while older models use more.</p></div>
