Spa Maintenance

Regular Maintenance Keeps Spas Clean, Safe and Fun

Like a swimming pool, your spa needs regular care and maintenance to keep it clean, safe and functioning properly. It only takes a few steps and a few minutes each week to make it happen.

Clean Your Filters

Considering the amount of circulation and filtering needed to keep a spa clean, weekly filter cleaning is probably the most important step. To avoid any downtime with your spa, it’s a good idea to have an extra filter on hand — so when it’s time to clean, you can just pop in filter #2 and keep the spa going while you clean filter #1.

Keep the Spa Clean

A skimmer is handy for quickly scooping up any debris that makes its way into your spa, and a cover is essential for keeping debris out when your spa isn’t in use. It’s also a good idea to drain, clean and refill your spa every three months.

Check the Chemistry

The chemical balance in your spa is just as important as that of your pool. Depending on how frequently you use your spa, you may need to check the chemistry a few times a week to maintain the proper pH and chlorine levels. A good rule of thumb is to check it before and after you use the spa.
