Winnipeg Hot Tub Cleaning & Maintenance 

Winnipeg is known for long winters and low temperatures. When the mercury begins to drop, there’s nothing better than a long soak in a hot tub. A backyard tub or spa can help to ease sore muscles at any time of year, but only if they’re kept clean. 

If skimming and water balancing are eating up your leisure time, just call Puddle. Our team of technicians provide expert residential and commercial Winnipeg hot tub maintenance services. 

How to Clean a Hot Tub: Secrets From the Pros 

The secret to properly cleaning your hot tub is consistency. Keeping up with a consistent hot tub maintenance schedule leaves water sparkling clean and systems running smoothly. Unlike a basic bathtub, you can’t just drain and refill a spa when the water starts to go murky. Contaminated water doesn’t just look bad, it’s a serious risk to health and safety. 

After years of industry experience, our team of technicians have created a range of service options designed to keep spas looking and running their best. Puddle gets the best results by breaking cleanings down into multiple steps and seasonal deep cleans. 

Water Treatments: It’s easy to visit any pool supply store to stock up on test strips and hot tub chemicals. Putting them to use, however, is more complicated. Properly balanced hot tub water relies on sanitizers like chlorine or bromine, as well as total alkalinity, pH levels and calcium. When properly applied, chemical treatments are effective for approximately two weeks. To maintain water quality, Puddle technicians provide bi-weekly cleaning programs. 

Dealing with Debris: Even with a hot tub cover on, unwanted items have a way of making their way into water systems. Lighter items will float along water surfaces and can be scooped out, while heavier ones will sink into seats or sit on flooring. Puddle technicians use specialty manual vacuums to remove unwanted items while letting filtered water pass through. Experienced technicians will also empty floating skimmer baskets and skim surfaces to get rid of debris. 

Hot Tub Filters & Circulation: Sitting water is dirty water, and that is why it’s so important to consider water circulation systems during regular maintenance. Filters are designed to trap and hold small debris. These small pieces will collect over time, and if the filters aren’t clean, you can expect clogs. Based on average use, filters should be cleaned every 3-6 months. 

Deep Cleans: Your spa goes through a lot throughout the year. Even if water, surfaces and filters appear clean, it’s important to make deep cleans a part of your annual maintenance routine. Puddle technicians provide a Hot Tub Refresh service designed to improve energy efficiency, function and prolong the lifespan of your spa. A combination of specialty cleansers run through plumbing lines, loosening buildup and pulling it out into shells. Techs will then drain your hot tub so it can be thoroughly scrubbed, including seats, surfaces, jets, headrests and other tricky areas. Spas can then be refilled with a simple garden hose, and water can be balanced.
