You will need to bear in mind that the tub will take longer to reach max temperature than in the warmer months of the year.  The Hot tub may take up to 18 Hours to heat up for 20 degrees. If you have a combi boiler to fill it with that will help a lot.  If you have the ground space to add the gazebo to your hire then we can also add on some heaters to help with the temperatures should they be low.

 

Please ensure the power supply is located within 5m of the intended location. The Pump comes with a 7m lead. We do provide extension cables but cannot offer any guarantees or take responsibility as the manufactures advise extension leads are not used.

Once the hot tub is full don’t forget to remove the hose.

 

You will be shown how to maintain the water and keep it clear for pleasant bathing. If you do not follow our instructions and the water becomes dirty which in turn clogs up the heater pump then we will not be held responsible for the hot tub cutting out and not working correctly.

Please take care of all accessories hired with the Spa to ensure they do not get damaged.
