Owning a hot tub can be amazing as you have access to your own personal spa session whenever you need it. Hot tubs require regular maintenance just as pools do and this includes frequent cleaning to ensure your hot tub stays in pristine, perfect condition.
Your hot tub requires some level of cleaning after every use, however, it doesn’t need a full deep clean that regularly. Simply wiping down the hot tub when needed after use will be enough. You should however ensure you schedule hot tub servicing at least once a year. You should make the effort to clean out your filter weekly as well as ensure the pH of the water is correct and add any chemicals needed to keep the water clean and sanitary. Every few weeks or months, you should drain your hot tub to give it a proper clean. This includes removing all the water, cleaning the hot tub both inside and out and also all the parts of the hot tub. Drain the tub, allowing all the water to be removed before starting. You will want to clean down the interior of the tub thoroughly as well as clean the exterior as well. This helps to ensure your hot tub is clean and there is no build-up of dirt or grime. Flushing and cleaning the pipes will also help keep everything clean. You can purchase cleaning solutions to help with this. As well as the pipes, ensure all the jets and other parts of the hot tub have been rinsed and wiped as well. Once the tub is clean and sparkling, you can then refill it. The water will need to be treated and the necessary chemicals added back in before you can use it again.

Hollywood has an intense and unique fascination with the hot tub, to the point that films in practically every genre that can get away with it have a scene with a character relaxing amidst the whirlpool jets.
A possible reason for this could be down to Jayne Mansfield, an incredibly intelligent brunette actress who made her fame by playing blond bombshells and living in a Barbie dollhouse known as the Pink Palace, complete with a heart-shaped Jacuzzi. Her exceptionally striking image combined with her somewhat tragic story and sudden death has made her a fascinating figure ever since, and a subtle way in which this is seen to this day is that hot tubs play a role in a huge number of films. From bubbling romances to hot tub servicing, here are some of the most fascinating hot tub scenes in film. Hot Tub Time Machine Released in 2010 amidst a wave of dreadfully self-aware gross-out frat boy comedies in the vein of The Hangover, Hot Tub Time Machine is the story of four friends who thanks to a combination of alcohol, energy drinks and a hot tub, transport back in time to the year 1986. Whilst not a film that appeals to everyone, the initial scenes of debauched drinking in the hot tub itself are a fascinating example of what not to do with a tub in real life, although the consequences do not typically involve time travel. Legally Blonde The 2001 film Legally Blonde is an exceptionally charming and surprisingly clever comedy about love, lawyers and never judging a book by its cover, with arguably the scene that illustrates it best taking place largely in a hot tub. The Harvard Video Essay sees both sides of Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods on full display, with the fashion-conscious blonde Cosmo girl side that has the level of wit and intelligence to highlight all the reasons why she should and does get into Harvard Law School. Ignore the fact that you cannot submit a video essay to any law school, this scene is amongst the best and most imaginative hot tub scenes out there. Ferris Bueller’s Day OffThis 1986 teen comedy classic is filled with iconic moments, lines and quotes, but one that is somewhat unfairly forgotten is the hot tub scene where Matthew Broderick’s Ferris Bueller and his girlfriend Sloane relax in a hot tub near the end of the eponymous day off. Meanwhile, their friend Cameron sits in a catatonic state of shock, leading to something of a mood whiplash when he dives into the pool, Ferris saves him and it all turns out to be a prank in itself. Austin Powers – International Man Of Mystery Mike Myers’ 1997 film about flamboyant spy capers is one that is both crass and classy in equal measure, and both aspects are on full display with its hot tub scene featuring a character that will not be named here for dignity reasons. Despite the bodily function jokes and silly rhymes, it also has a lavish wooden spa and the beautiful voice of Bangles frontwoman Susanna Hoffs providing a soft, tender counterpoint. Hot tubs are amazing in that they are an indulgent experience that everyone can enjoy and a lot of times for far less than you might think.
The hot tub is a modern application of an ancient therapeutic idea, and most people want to take their bath out of hot tub storage and enjoy the relaxing whirlpool feeling.
For thousands of years, if you wanted the benefits of hydrotherapy, you typically had to either live around a hot spring area, such as the famed springs of Therma, the Roman Baths of Bath and the many many onsen in Japan. However, that started to change in 1926 with the invention of a water pump by Rachele Jacuzzi. This by itself was not notable, but 22 years later, the Jacuzzi pump business would evolve and develop, culminating in the J-300 in 1948. This pump was of a different design and was invented by Candido Jacuzzi to treat his son Ken’s rheumatoid arthritis between trips to the hospital. The exceptionally painful condition manifests as flare-ups of painful swellings and stiffness in joints, and hydrotherapy is a low-impact form of exercise that helps to relieve joint pressure, tenderness and pain. Once Candido saw the effects, he patented the pump and started to market it as a therapeutic treatment that turned a standard bathtub into a spa with a few minor adjustments. However, this was not the hot tub that most people immediately think of. That came 20 years later in 1968 made by Roy Jacuzzi and was initially known as the Roman Bath, before the names hot tub and Jacuzzi stuck. With the endorsement of actress Jayne Mansfield, who famously had a heart-shaped hot tub in her home, the Jacuzzi became a hit amongst the rich and famous, with larger whirlpool tubs being made as well as larger bathrooms to accommodate them. The only barrier in the way of Jacuzzi was the infighting among the family themselves, which led to the company being sold to Kidde for $70m and since then it has passed from company to company.
