Mission Viejo Hot Tub Repair
Regular hot tub service is necessary for a safe and sanitary experience in your spa. If you hire a company to provide weekly or monthly maintenance, you can expect technicians to perform the following tasks:
- Add sanitizer (chlorine or bromide tablets) to the water at least once a week
- Balance pH and alkalinity levels
- Add "shock" substance to water to break down chemicals like shampoo and perfumes.
- Drain the water and clean it every couple of months
- Clean the filter monthly and remove debris weekly
Some companies also provide repair services. Metal components are often broken down due to high acidic content in the water. Seals may also need to be repaired due to poor maintenance techniques or exposure to the elements. If your hot tub is located near trees or branches, water pumps and filtration systems may need to be repaired. Some full-service contractors offer landscaping and renovations in addition to regular cleanings.
Daily Maintenance for Those Times outside of Your Weekly Hot Tub Service
If you hire a hot tub cleaning service, you still need to maintain the delicate balance of the water on a daily basis. Testing is your best line of defense. Invest in a set of test strips and test the water after every use. The pH balance should fall somewhere between 7.2 and 7.8, and the total alkalinity level should fall somewhere between 80 and 120 PPM. Add chemicals as needed to keep bacteria levels down.
