For private hot tubs it is recommended every 3 months, assuming 'average' usage, and provided daily/weekly cleaning advice is followed and chemical balance is properly maintained this should be sufficient. Do bear in mind however that heavier usage or accidental contamination by debris or products such as make-up or sun cream could affect this. Signs to be aware of would be cloudy or discoloured water, foaminess, algae, scale build up. For hot tubs/spas in holiday properties and ABNB settings then the full drain and clean operation must be done between each new set of guests. Health & Safety Guidelines HSG282 are very detailed and specific in these requirements.

Health & Safety Guidelines HSG282 ''The Control of Legionella and Other Infection Agents in Spa-Pool Systems' recommends that a private hot tub be fully drained every three months, and that a deep clean and filter change be conducted annually. For holiday lettings/paying guests the rules are very different. A full water changeover must be carried out between each set of guests and a bi-annual deep clean (best done before and after the main letting season). This advice is for guidance only, and needs might vary according to level of use or if the water becomes contaminated.

We use an electric pump to drain the hot tub with a long hose which can be directed down a drain, usually the preferred option, or to any chosen area of your garden if no drain is available. If draining onto your lawn/garden we will check the pH level before we do so and neutralise the chlorine if necessary as a precaution. This will ensure it is perfectly safe to plants and soil. The other point to consider is whether the amount of water drained may travel into your neighbours' property. We will always check the drainage options with you.

We recommend that filters are replaced every year, or even 6 monthly if usage is heavier than normal. We can source and fit new filters as part of our services to make this more convenient for you.

Daily care of your hot tub between regular service visits is essential and will give you maximum enjoyments of your spa. Always test the water with good quality testing strips daily and/or before each use and adjust chemicals accordingly. Always replace the thermal cover when the spa is not in use, and provide steps and a foot bath. Most debris is transferred in on people's feet. Make sure also that family and friends know the basic golden rules of using your hot tub: Shower fully before use | No make-up or products (skin or hair) | No putting heads under water | No food, china or glassware

Only cleaning products developed specifically for use on hot tubs - inside shell, exterior and all other parts and components including filters - should be used when cleaning your spa. General household products will not clean properly or protect the apparatus, and in fact could cause scratching and damage as they may leave residue behind. We will always use the full range of industry approved products and solutions to carry out our cleaning services.

We can attend to any make and model of solid construction hot tub/spa, but not inflatable or foam walled collapsible versions.
