The water in a Spa Tub doesn't need to be changed frequently, and it can usually be used continuously for about three months, provided that the water quality is kept clean. Therefore, it is very important to maintain the water quality of a Hot Tub. When the outdoor jacuzzi tub is not in use, you need to pay attention to cover the spa with an thermo cover, keep the circulation system started, and clean the filter regularly. However, before soaking in the hot water, there is a point that is often overlooked, that is, you need to take a shower before soaking in the Hot Tub Spa.
It may sound confusing that you need to take a shower before soaking a hot tub. However, the function of a hot tub is to provide relaxation, not to clean your body, so the water should be kept as clean as possible. Although our bodies do not look dirty on the outside, if we enter a hot tub without taking a shower, there are actually many unexpected residues that will pollute the water, causing the water in the spa to be polluted faster, and it may consume more chemicals and require more frequent cleaning of the filter and water changes.
Bodily Residue
Our human body sheds tens of thousands of dead skin cells every day, and during daily activities, sweat and oil are produced on the body surface. If the human body enters a hot tub with these residues, it will accelerate the pollution of the water.
Personal Care Products
But this is not important. The key to soaking is to wash away the various personal care products we need to apply every day. These include makeup, sunscreen, perfume, moisturizer, detergents, etc. These residues may affect the water balance, and some detergents may also cause terrible bubbles.
If you use your spa without doing your best to follow these guidelines, you will need more hot tub chemicals to protect the water, which can be expensive, and your filter will need to work harder to break down these harmful chemicals and substances, which may also result in the need to completely drain and refill the whirlpool hot tub more often.
