Jacuzzi maintenance

A jacuzzi is an oasis of relaxation and luxury in your own home or garden. The warm water and massaging bubbles can reduce stress and relieve muscle tension. However, to fully enjoy your jacuzzi, regular and correct maintenance is essential. In this blog post, we will elaborate on everything you need to know about maintaining your jacuzzi. We will discuss the most important steps to keep your jacuzzi clean, safe, and in top condition.

The importance of jacuzzi maintenance

A well-maintained jacuzzi not only provides a relaxing experience but also promotes the health and safety of its users. Improper maintenance can lead to water problems, bacterial growth, and even skin irritations. Regular maintenance not only helps extend the life of your Jacuzzi but also ensures that you can enjoy clear, clean, and freshwater time after time.

Keep your Jacuzzi clean with the following steps

Water balance and chemistry

One of the most crucial aspects of Jacuzzi maintenance is maintaining proper water balance and chemistry. Here are the key steps:

1. Test water parameters: Use test strips or a water analysis kit to regularly measure the pH, alkalinity, and chlorine levels of the water.
2. Make adjustments: Correct pH and alkalinity if necessary using appropriate chemicals. Chlorine or an alternative sanitizer should also be adjusted to kill bacteria.
3. Prevent limescale build-up: Use a limescale management product to prevent limescale build-up on the tub and pipes.

Filtration and circulation

Proper filtration and circulation of the water are essential to effectively remove contaminants and bacteria:

1. Clean the filter regularly: Depending on the type of filter your Jacuzzi has, clean or replace the filter element according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. Optimise circulation: Make sure the jets and pump are functioning properly to distribute water evenly and improve filtration.

Preventing Algae and Pollution

Algae and dirt can build up on the tub and other surfaces of your Jacuzzi.

1. Perform these steps regularly: Scrub the tub: Use a soft brush to scrub the tub of your jacuzzi to remove any algae or built-up dirt.
2. Wipe down surfaces: Wipe down the edges and other surfaces of your jacuzzi regularly to prevent dirt build-up.

Safety and comfort

The bottom of your jacuzzi can become slippery, leading to falls. Take these measures for safety and comfort:

Scrub the bottom: Regularly clean the bottom of your jacuzzi with a soft brush to prevent slippery surfaces.

Non-slip mat: Consider using a non-slip mat on the bottom of your jacuzzi to reduce slipping.
