The water in the hot tub is pumped through a filtration system, which removes large particles and impurities, and then passes through an ozone generator, where ozone is injected into the water to disinfect it. The water that has been disinfected by ozone will re-enter the bathtub, keeping the water quality of the entire bathtub clean.
When the concentration of chlorine in a hot tub is too high, the natural barrier function of human skin may be damaged, resulting in dry and sensitive skin, and even itching. Especially for people with sensitive skin or skin diseases, the irritation of chlorine will be more obvious.
It is generally recommended that healthy adults soak in a 40-degree hot tub for 15 to 30 minutes. This allows you to enjoy the comfort and relaxation of warm water without overheating your body.
Most common wooden or composite decks are designed to withstand a load of about 40 to 60 pounds per square foot (about 200 to 300 kilograms per square meter). However, 4-person hot tubs often weigh much more than this.
In the cold winter, ensuring that the water in the hot tub does not freeze is key to keeping it running. The main purpose of draining the water is to prevent water from freezing in extremely cold weather and prevent financial losses from burst pipes.
Long-term hot tub soaking may cause blood pressure fluctuations, especially in winter when the temperature difference is large. The warm water temperature causes blood vessels to dilate, and long-term soaking may cause a slight drop in blood pressure.
Baking soda is not the only substance that can increase the alkalinity of hot tub water. There are other chemicals on the market that are specifically designed for water quality maintenance, such as alkalinity increasers. These products usually contain sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃), also known as soda ash.
If multiple people use a hot tub every day, contaminants such as body oils, sweat, and cosmetics will increase significantly in the water, which will accelerate the consumption of bromine. Frequent use means that bromine needs to be added more frequently to maintain its disinfecting effect.
People who are not suitable for outdoor hot tubs: 1. People with cardiovascular diseases 2. People with respiratory diseases 3. People with diabetes 4. Pregnant women 5. People with sensitive skin or skin diseases 6. People with poor body temperature regulation 7. Alcoholics and drug users 8. People with weak immune systems 9. People who are overly tired or dehydrated
Common home hot tubs are usually equipped with 3kW to 5kW heaters. For example, a 3kW heater can heat about 2°C to 3°C per hour. If you want to heat from 15°C to 40°C, it theoretically takes about 8 hours. In contrast, if it is a 5kW heater, the time required may be shortened to about 5 hours.
The relatively low power of the plug-and-play hot tub's heater means that the water will heat up more slowly in cold environments. Especially when the outdoor temperature is near or below freezing, the tub will take more time to heat the water to the ideal temperature.
A user who uses the hot tub for a few hours a day may find that the heater fails after 4 to 5 years, while a user who uses it a few times a week may extend it to more than 7 years. Therefore, the frequency of use directly affects the life of the heater.
