How to clean and maintain a hot tub?
We just bought a house that has a hot tub in the backyard. I have never owned a hot tub or a pool and I am completely clueless. It was sitting half full of water for who knows how long so I know it needs to be drained and cleaned. So what steps do I need to take?
How should I drain it? Clean it? Then after I fill it how do I maintain it?
Thanks!
there should be a drain plug somewhere near the bottom probably on a side at the front.
then yes, clean it w/ a mild antifungal, i use tilex.
then fill it and use the chemicles which go w/ it. a local spa store will have these as well as recommendations and possibly a way to test your water to suggest a start up formula for your chemicles.
then you test it about once a week until you know how it is going to stay maintained and emty and refill about every 2-4 months.
