Your hot tub can be an enjoyable part of your winter time months. In this article, we look at nine tips for using your hot tub in the winter.
For hot water whenever you’re ready to soak, invest in a good cover so your spa is well-insulated. You want your cover to have a tight-fitting seal to keep the hot water hot and to save on energy costs.

During the winter months, it’s just as important to clean and maintain your water and your filters.
Stay on a schedule so you know when your filters need to be cleaned or replaced.

Why? The jets work by blowing air into the water, which can lower the temperature.
It can be tempting to spend an hour in your hot tub when it’s freezing outside.
Remember, though, that your body temperature climbs when you’re in your spa. Because of this, limit your soak time to about 20 minutes so you don’t shock your body too much moving from extreme heat to extreme cold.
Anytime you soak, you want to stay hydrated. Cold or room-temperature water is fine, just keep drinking water for your health.
