How to Make Your Hot Tub Sparkling Clean?
Hot tubs are a wonderful way to sit back and relax. Many homeowners enjoy their hot tub whether it be indoors or out. One part about hot tubs that many owners do not enjoy is having to clean it. Luckily, making your hot tub sparkling clean does not have to be difficult at all. The first step in making any hot tub look like new is maintaining the proper chemical levels. Water may not be complex but the many chemicals that reside in your hot tub can cause the water to react quite quickly. Regulating your chemicals ensures that your hot tub will be that much easier to clean. Sampling your water is easily done with a sample kit from any pool store. Most kits will also give you some chemicals and tell you which chemicals to add when the tests show certain colors. Unlike pools you will need to drain your hot tub before applying any solution. Now that your hot tub has been drained scrub vigorously at the problem area. Make sure to use a brush that will not damage the fragile fiber glass of the hot tub itself. Now that you have removed any possible grime and physical dirt from your hot tub wash out the chemicals. It is now time to clean the filter for your hot tub. Most filters are easily cleaned. If your hot tub filter is more difficult to clean consult your owners manual in order to find what the company suggests on how to clean the filter. Make certain that all pumps and electricity is disconnected before cleaning the filter. Failure to do so may result in severe injury or death! Reset the pump and connect the electricity to ensure it functions. Now you can fill the hot tub with a fresh supply of water. Exteriors of hot tubs are typically made from wood. In order to clean the wood simply use a solution of soap and water. Scrub vigorously to remove any dirt or dust. Finally if the original wax is starting to look faded it may be a good idea to apply both new sealant and wax to your hot tub.
