Paris Hot Tub Maintenance

Hot tubs are an attractive addition to any property. At home, these are a great way to relax and even host, while in a commercial space they can attract customers and new members. There is no doubt that a bit of warm water goes a long way in adding value to any space but it also comes with a lot of hard work and maintenance. If you are struggling to keep up with the needs of a high traffic space or don’t want to give up your leisure time to scrubbing and water balancing, call a Puddle Pro today. Paris hot tub maintenance programs keep water clean, systems running smoothly and shells free of debris and residue.

You wouldn’t swim in someone else’s bath water but without regular cleaning soaking in a hot tub is no different. With each body that steps into a water system, there are things left behind. This can be everything from hair, body oils, sunscreen and products or even band-aids. Whether your tub is looking worse for the wear or you are just looking to unload the cleaning practice, our team of highly trained technicians are here to help.

Hot Tub Care: What to Know

Keeping hot tubs or swim spas clean is not a once a season chore. In order to keep debris out and chemical levels where they need to be, hot tub cleaning should be done on a bi-weekly basis. Even with regular cleanings, there will come a time when you will need to drain and clean water systems for a full Hot Tub Refresh.

Water Treatments: Covering a hot tub when it is not in use is a no-brainer but when covered, water is at a high risk of contamination. Damp, dark, covered environments are the ideal space for mold and algae to thrive. Without the addition of a sanitizer like chlorine or bromine, it won’t take long for water to be overrun with algae blooms, white mold and foul smells. Pool specialists balance spa water, measuring for sanitizers, as well as pH levels, calcium and alkalinity. Basic test strips might point out obvious issues with water chemistry but they can’t help you balance them, so call a Puddle technician instead.

Dealing with Debris: Even with a hot tub cover, debris has a way of finding its way inside pool systems. Hot tubs are much smaller than swimming pools so it is impossible to just turn on a vacuum to suck up debris. Lighter items will bob along water surfaces and can be trapped by floating skimmer baskets while heavier items will sink down, becoming very difficult to remove. Puddle technicians have specialty tools and hand vacuums to remove debris easily and without needing to struggle.

Hot Tub Filters: It is easy to forget that water systems rely on filters to stay clean and healthy. Keeping your filter cleaner means regular inspections, along with cleaning as needed. Spas will have internal filters but it is common to have floating skimmer baskets to trap and hold lighter items floating along surfaces.

Hot Tub Refresh: No matter how thorough standard cleaning practices might be, there are certain parts of hot tubs that just can’t be reached. If there is white mold, bacteria or buildup inside plumbing lines, it will need to be flushed out and the best way to do that is with a drain and refill. This process starts with a multi-part chemical service designed to run through plumbing lines and water systems, drawing any build up out and depositing it into hot tub water. From here, it is time to drain the hot tub. Improper draining can lead to drowned lawns, water damaged, flooding and leaks, so it is always better left up to the experts. Once empty, shells, sides, floors and walls are scrubbed to remove residue and eliminate bacteria from jets, head rests and other key areas. It is then time to refill your hot tub and this can be done with a simple garden hose. Technicians will then come back for a final water balancing and your hot tub will be better than ever.
