Protecting Your Hot Tub Over Winter
This is our winter shut-down service, designed to prepare your spa for the months it will not be used.
The hot tub is then left to hibernate for the winter and can be refilled whenever you wish to start using it again.
Also consider this option prior to renting out your property to ensure your hot tub is kept secure and clean.
- Biofilm Eliminator is added to the water on arrival, along with a shock dose. After a long period of heavy use, your hot tub will build up a layer of dirt and fats that sit in the pipework unnoticed (the parts you don’t see). This product helps to clean inside the pipework.
- Filters are put into soak in a cleaning solution and then left to dry in dry storage.
- Older filters may need to be replaced and are available at an additional cost.
- The spa is emptied, cleaned, rinsed down and vacuumed out.
- Water is drained from components.
- We remove the inspection panel and drain all water from components, pipework, and most importantly the heater.
- The top of the spa is shrink wrapped to help keep rainwater out.
- The cover is cleaned and replaced.
- The isolator switch is left in the off position.
What to know before booking
Please ensure that your hot tub is full prior to our attendance. We need the hot tub full as we will chemically treat this water to flush through the pipework. We will then drain that water ready for us to refill with fresh.
We will require access to normal plug-in power to allow us to operate our tooling. We will also need access to the main power switch for the hot tub, normally known as the RCD, not the isolation switch located outside.
We will need access to a water supply to fill the spa, and we request that a hose pipe is available.
The labour allocation for any service will be one technician. If two technicians attend site, you will only be charged the quoted price.
The inclusive price of any service covers the listed actions stated within that service. The standard allotted time for any service is up to 3 hours. Any significant time required beyond this may be chargeable.
For this reason, we ask that you inform us of any potential issues that may affect the service, such as restricted space, gazebo surrounds or difficult access. This allows us to provide a more accurate quotation for any non-standard work that may be required.
Where possible we will remove and clean each jet internal. Due to materials deteriorating over time, some jets may be non-removable or removal may cause damage. We will always do our best to avoid this and will highlight this to you if necessary. However, jet internals that require replacement due to deterioration will be chargeable.
