Hot Tub Maintenance Tips

Cleaning Your Spa

Soak in your spa’s sparkling clean water by following these simple cleaning tips.

For the whole spa: Use a mild non-abrasive, non-sudsing cleaner and a soft rag or nylon scrubber to remove dirt build-up

For minor surface cleaning: Use common baking soda to clean small surface areas

For a shiny look: Apply FreshWater Spa Shine to your clean and dry spa shell

For spa pillows: Follow the instructions in your Owner’s Manual to remove and clean your spa pillows

For vinyl cover: First remove the cover and spray it lightly with a garden hose to loosen any dirt or debris that might have built up. Then, using a mild soap solution (1 teaspoon dishwashing liquid with 2 gallons water) or baking soda, scrub the vinyl in a circular motion with a large sponge and rinse with a garden hose. Rinse the bottom of the cover without using soap, and wipe it clean with a dry rag. To condition the cover after cleaning, apply a thin film of Hot Spring Cover Shield™ product.

Helpful Hint: To keep detergent and soap residue out of your spa water, shower without soap before soaking in your spa, and instead of washing your bathing suit use the rinse cycle.
