The correct use of the whirlpool spa hot tub can not only allow users to get a better hydrotherapy experience, but also extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the risk of failure. However, many users often ignore some key steps during use, resulting in poor water quality management, increased energy consumption, and even affecting physical health.
So, what is the correct order to use the whirlpool spa hot tub? This article will analyze each step in detail to ensure that users can enjoy the hydrotherapy experience safely and efficiently.
Preparation before using the whirlpool spa hot tub
1.1 Make sure the device is in normal working condition
Before using the whirlpool spa hot tub, first check whether the device is in normal condition, including the following aspects:
● Power connection: Check whether the power supply of the whirlpool spa hot tub is connected normally, and make sure that the socket or wire is not damaged.
● Water level detection: The water level must reach the minimum safety line of the bathtub, otherwise it is easy to cause the water pump to run dry and damage.
● Water quality check: Is the water clear and free of impurities? If the water is turbid or has an odor, the water balance may need to be replaced or adjusted.
● Nozzles and filtration system: Make sure the nozzles and filtration system of the whirlpool spa hot tub are not blocked to ensure the normal operation of the massage function.
1.2 Set the appropriate water temperature
Water temperature is a key factor affecting the spa effect and user comfort. Generally speaking, the ideal water temperature range of the whirlpool spa hot tub is between 37℃ and 40℃, which can make the body feel comfortable without overheating and causing fatigue or dehydration.
● Recommended temperature in winter: 39℃~40℃ to maintain sufficient warmth.
● Recommended temperature in summer: 37℃~38℃ to avoid discomfort caused by overheating.
● Suitable temperature for children and the elderly: 35℃~37℃ to reduce the pressure of high temperature on the body.
● Note: Avoid water temperature exceeding 42℃. Too high temperature may cause skin burns, blood pressure fluctuations or increase the burden on the heart.
1.3 Add necessary water balance agents
The water quality of the whirlpool spa hot tub needs to be balanced to prevent bacterial growth or damage to equipment components. Before use, the following substances can be added according to the water quality test results:
● pH balance agent: Keep the pH value between 7.2 and 7.8. Too acidic or too alkaline will affect the hydrotherapy effect and damage the tub parts.
● Disinfectant (chlorine or bromine): Ensure that there are no harmful bacteria in the water. The chlorine content should be maintained between 3 and 5 ppm.
● Anti-scale agent: Prevent scale deposition and affect the nozzle and pipes.
After completing these steps, wait for the chemicals to fully dissolve and evenly distribute before entering the spa hot tub. It is generally recommended to wait for 15 to 30 minutes.
The correct order of entering the whirlpool spa hot tub
2.1 Clean the body
Before entering the whirlpool spa hot tub, users should rinse their bodies with clean water, especially to remove cosmetics, skin care products, perfume and sweat on the body. These chemicals may react with the water quality management system of the whirlpool spa hot tub, affecting the cleanliness of the water and may cause excessive foam or turbidity.
● Recommendation: Try not to enter the spa hot tub immediately after using skin care products such as shower gel and lotion to avoid affecting the water quality.
2.2 Enter the bathtub slowly
The water temperature of the whirlpool spa hot tub is high, so it is recommended that users enter slowly to allow the body to gradually adapt to the temperature change. If you enter the high-temperature water quickly, it may cause blood pressure fluctuations, dizziness or discomfort.
● Special tips: The elderly or people with unstable blood pressure should first use their feet to detect the water temperature, then enter slowly, and avoid soaking for a long time.
Correct use of the whirlpool spa hot tub massage function
3.1 Choose the right massage mode
The whirlpool spa hot tub is usually equipped with a variety of massage modes, and different modes have different massage intensities and effects on the body. Common modes include:
● Gentle mode: suitable for relaxing muscles and relieving fatigue.
● Medium intensity mode: suitable for daily hydrotherapy and promoting blood circulation.
● High-intensity massage mode: suitable for deep muscle massage, but not recommended for long-term use.
● Recommended order: Use low-intensity mode first to adapt to the water flow, and then adjust to the appropriate massage intensity according to personal needs.
3.2 Adjust sitting posture appropriately
The nozzle design of whirlpool spa hot tub is usually designed to massage different parts (such as back, legs, waist), so users can get better massage effect by adjusting their sitting posture. For example:
● Back massage: lean on the massage nozzle and enjoy the water flow impacting the back muscles.
● Leg massage: sit up straight and bring your legs close to the nozzle area to relieve leg fatigue.
● Full body relaxation: adjust your posture so that the whole body can receive water flow massage evenly.
● Note: Avoid immersing your head in water for a long time to prevent breathing difficulties.
Correct steps after using whirlpool spa hot tub
4.1 Get up gradually
After soaking in the spa hot tub for a long time, the blood vessels will expand, and standing up suddenly may cause dizziness. Therefore, it is recommended that users get up slowly to avoid dizziness or falling.
4.2 Dry your body and keep warm
After bathing, you should dry your body with a clean towel immediately to avoid catching a cold, especially in cold weather. In addition, you can wear a bathrobe or warm clothing to prevent colds caused by excessive temperature differences.
4.3 Turn off the equipment and do a simple cleaning
After use, be sure to turn off the power of the whirlpool spa hot tub to avoid long-term operation, which will increase energy consumption or damage the equipment. At the same time, you can use a net spoon to clean floating objects on the water surface to ensure that the water quality remains clean.
4.4 Regular maintenance
After using the whirlpool spa hot tub, it is recommended to perform a deep cleaning every 1~2 weeks, including cleaning the filter, checking whether the pipes and nozzles are blocked, etc. This will ensure clean water quality and extend the service life of the spa hot tub.
