HOT TUB CARE & GUIDE

Everything you need to know about heating, water care, massage systems and safe year-round hot tub use.

Important Information: This guide provides general information for hot tub use and maintenance. Always follow the instructions supplied with your specific hot tub, installed equipment and water-treatment products. Electrical installation and connection must be carried out in accordance with applicable local regulations.

🔥 WOOD-FIRED HEATING 

Safe and efficient heating, correct water level and proper heater care.

Always fill the hot tub with water before lighting the wood-fired heater. Never operate the heater without sufficient water in the system.
Make sure the heater inlet and outlet connections are fully below the water level before starting the fire.
Use clean, dry firewood for efficient heating and reduced soot build-up.
Keep the thermal cover on while heating to reduce heat loss, while maintaining safe clearance from the chimney and other hot components.
Check the water temperature regularly. Circulating or gently mixing the water helps maintain an even temperature throughout the tub.
Never drain the hot tub while the fire is burning or while the heater is still hot. Allow the heater to cool completely first.
Regularly inspect the heater and chimney and clean them when necessary to maintain efficient and safe operation.

Important: Never operate a wood-fired heater without water in the system. Overheating can permanently damage the heater.

How long does it take to heat the water with a wood-fired heater?
Heating time depends on the hot tub size, heater power, starting water temperature and weather conditions. Under normal conditions, the water typically reaches a comfortable bathing temperature in approximately 2–3 hours.

Can I choose between an external and integrated wood-fired heater?
Yes. Depending on the hot tub model, you can choose between an external or integrated stainless steel wood-fired heater. We can help you select the most suitable option based on available space, preferred design and how you plan to use your hot tub.

💧 WATER & HOT TUB CARE

Simple care for clean water, a fresh hot tub and long-lasting enjoyment.

Rinse and clean the fiberglass surface regularly and remove leaves, dirt and other debris.
Use cleaning products suitable for fiberglass or SPA surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners, hard brushes and aggressive chemicals that could damage the surface.
Check the water quality regularly and maintain the correct pH for your chosen water-treatment system. A common target range is approximately pH 7.2–7.6.
If your hot tub has a filtration system, clean or replace the filter according to its condition and frequency of use.
Showering before entering the hot tub helps reduce oils, cosmetics and other contaminants entering the water.
When replacing the water, rinse the tub and clean the areas around jets, outlets and fittings before refilling.
Regularly inspect the thermal cover, cladding, steps and visible connections.

Tip: Regular light maintenance is the easiest way to keep your hot tub looking and performing at its best.

❄️ WINTER & FROST PROTECTION

Enjoy your hot tub in colder weather while protecting the system from freezing.

During freezing temperatures, never allow water to remain trapped in an unused hot tub system unless suitable frost protection is operating.
If the hot tub will not be heated or used during freezing weather, completely drain the tub and all water-carrying equipment.
Drain the wood-fired heater, connecting hoses, filtration equipment and massage systems where installed.
Open drain points and valves to allow remaining water to escape.
Pay particular attention to pumps, filters, jets and pipework, where small amounts of water can remain and freeze.
Massage systems may retain water inside their pipework even after the main tub has been drained. Follow the equipment-specific winterisation procedure to remove residual water.
Never light a frozen wood-fired heater or attempt to rapidly heat equipment that may contain frozen water.
If the hot tub remains filled throughout winter, ensure that the installed heating and circulation equipment is suitable for frost protection.

Important: Frost damage can occur even when the hot tub appears empty because water may remain inside pipes, pumps and other equipment.

Can I use my hot tub in winter?
Yes. Our hot tubs are designed for year-round enjoyment, including the colder months. During freezing temperatures, it is important to follow the correct winter-use and drainage procedures to protect the heater, pipes, pumps and other equipment.

🫧 HYDRO & AIR MASSAGE

Discover two different massage experiences designed for comfort and relaxation.

Hydromassage uses powerful water jets to provide a more targeted massage experience. On equipped models, the intensity can be adjusted to suit your preferred level of relaxation.

Air massage releases air through multiple jets, creating thousands of bubbles and a softer, full-body SPA sensation.

Operate massage systems only when the hot tub contains sufficient water.
Make sure the required jets and suction points are submerged before switching the system on.
Keep suction openings unobstructed during operation.
Never allow massage or circulation pumps to run dry.
After draining the hot tub during freezing conditions, make sure water is also removed from the massage-system pipework.
If the hot tub will remain unused during cold weather, properly winterise the massage system before temperatures fall below freezing.

Tip: Combine hydromassage and air massage on equipped models for a more complete SPA experience.

✨ WATER TREATMENT

Balanced, properly treated water for a clean and comfortable SPA experience.

Check water quality regularly, especially when the hot tub is used frequently or by several people.
Maintain the appropriate pH and disinfectant level for the water-treatment system and products you use.
Always follow the dosage, application and safety instructions provided by the chemical manufacturer.
Never mix concentrated water-treatment chemicals together.
Add different treatment products separately and only according to their instructions.
Maintain adequate filtration and circulation when your hot tub is equipped with these systems.
Replace some or all of the water when it becomes difficult to maintain clean, clear and properly balanced water.
Store water-treatment products securely, in a dry place and out of reach of children.
 
Important: Using more chemicals does not necessarily mean cleaner water. Correct dosing, filtration and balanced water are what matter.

⚡ ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Safe electrical installation and operation of your hot tub equipment.

Electrical equipment such as pumps, massage systems, electric heaters, lighting and filtration systems must be connected according to the specifications of the installed equipment.
Electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable local regulations.
Use a properly earthed power supply with suitable RCD (residual-current device) protection.
Electrical components, sockets and connections must have appropriate protection for their installation location and exposure to moisture.
Never use damaged cables, plugs or electrical equipment.
Disconnect electrical equipment from the power supply before maintenance, inspection or repair.
Never operate pumps or electric heaters without the required water level and circulation.
Do not modify factory wiring, pumps, control systems or electrical protection devices without appropriate technical approval.
If the RCD repeatedly trips or electrical equipment operates abnormally, stop using the system and have it inspected by a qualified specialist.
 
Important: Electrical installation requirements vary by country. The installation must comply with the regulations applicable at the hot tub installation location.
