How to Use a Hot Spring Spa

Many consumers choose to buy a Hot Spring spa because their hot tubs are versatile and can be transported if your family ever moves. The spas are easy to set up, require only basic maintenance and provide health benefits.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Decide with your spa dealer where to situate your new hot tub, placing it near an outlet. Hot spring spas generally run on 115 volts, but can hook up to 230 volts, if needed.

2. Fill your spa with the outdoor hose, plug it in, and allow it to heat up. According to the website hottubsandhomespas.com, you should aim to set the temperature around 102 degrees, because this temperature will not cause health risks to pregnant women or children.

3. Use the jets in the spa to experience a hydro massage. Hot Springs spas combine warm water, buoyancy and massage through the jets to help muscles relax.

4. Soak in extra hot water, around 103 degrees, for about 15 minutes an hour and a half before your bedtime. Your body temperature will drop at a faster rate after your soak, making sleep easier.

5. Use the spa's Auto Fresh maintenance products, which dispense chlorine-free sanitizer, as needed. Supplement that with Ever Fresh products, such as the water purifier, which needs to be changed every 90 days, to further reduce the need for chlorine.
