Before you start enjoying the water of your new hot tub, take a moment and familiarise yourself with some critical guidance on spa and hot tub maintenance. Get an accurate idea about the hot tub spa chemicals you need for your hot tub and how to keep your hot tub as good as new. 

A hot tub does not require very high maintenance. Maintaining a hot tub requires a simple understanding of water chemistry and a simple hot tub cleaning schedule. The hot tub spa chemicals are also not that expensive. A few pounds a month and a bit of hard work are all it takes to maintain a hot tub. 

There are three primary rules for maintaining a hot tub. These are:

1. Maintaining a good circulation of water in the tub:

Proper circulation of water in a hot tub means it helps to keep the water free of bacteria, algae, etc., by passing the water through the cartridge filters of the tub.

Your hot tub may have an automatic water circulation schedule depending on the model of the tub. The automated schedule ensures that the water is passed through the cartridge filters at least once or twice a day.

If your hot tub does not come with an automatic circulation schedule, then turn on the hot tub twice a day for 15 to 20 minutes to ensure that all the water is passed through the filters.

2. Sticking to a regular and straightforward cleaning schedule:

Both indoor and outdoor hot tubs are prone to developing bacteria, algae, scum, etc. But if you have an outdoor hot spa, then you must keep an eye on it for leaves, wind-blown trash, critters, and so on.

Keep the seats and waterline clear in order to have a clean hot tub and also to prevent issues regarding the water in the tub. 

Water in a hot tub is usually drained once every three to fourth months, or the water is drained more often if it undergoes heavy use. Cleaning the jets and shell of the hot tub once a week with a sponge and white vinegar will keep it tidy. But cleaning the outside and the cover of the hot tub once a week is essential. The hot tub filters also need regular cleaning in order to perform efficiently. 

You can clean the filters in three methods: rinse, soak, and spray.

• Rinse

Rinse the hot tub filters as regularly as you can with either warm water or a garden hose.

• Soak

• Spray

3. Balancing the chemistry of the water:

It is essential to balance the chemistry of the water in a hot tub to prevent the development of bacteria and algae in the water as the same water stays in a hot tub for months.

Take a baseline reading on the water chemistry before adding anything to the hot tub. Test the water to determine the alkalinity and pH levels once the hot tub is filled.
