really easy to follow video regarding the chemicals. Mine is a little cloudy and PH low so will add the plus and see how I get on. Should I shock treat it weekly or just add the tablets as I have been doing. thanks for the great video

@mgtracey 11 ай бұрын

If you rinse out the filter thoroughly each day and top up the chemicals, you shouldn’t need to shock it, and it should clear if the water stays murky. Then it probably is time to change the water and blitz in a little bit with chlorine.

Hey! Great video. I think you convinced me to buy one. I was wondering which one do you have? Is that the lazy spa Milan airjet plus? Im still not sure if i should buy the Palma Springs or the Milan. I can get both for the same price. I know the Milan has the wifi function, but i don't think ill use that. Other than that are there any other differences? What do you suggest? Thanks for helping ☺️

@georgeburchett5798 Жыл бұрын

@@gmanhi5 yes you can add air or more inflation without draining. You should just plug both the filter and inlet holes from inside the tub, with the parts/plugs that came with the hot tub. Then you can disconnect the pump and attach the air hose just like when you first inflated it. Also if you search utube there is videos on this procedure.

thanks for the nice video!!! my question, i already put the chlorine tabs and added algaecide and clarifier and bioside, but how long does it take to make the water clear? or do i need other product to make it look like yours

@nicheca20 Жыл бұрын

and anoother question is,... do you put the cover all the time after putting the chlorine and the other chemicals? or should i leave it uncover? for example if i have to leave home 3 days, should i leave it covered or uncovered? (off course leaving it on without the bubbles)

@mgtracey Жыл бұрын

It should go clear almost immediately. If not change of clean the filter. If The filter is really dirty clean and reuse if the filter is clean and the water is still murky then you need to empty and completely refill the hot tub.

New owner of a spa - chemical levels all correct, but when getting in its slippery - any advice?

@mgtracey 7 ай бұрын

If the bootom or the sides of your hot tub feel slippery and slimy to the touch. Algae is in the hot tub, perhpas at some point the pH levels in the water were imbalanced or when not enough sanitization chemicals, such as bromine or chlorine, have been added. Try a blitz of extra chlorine granuals, don't use for a day. Levae lid off for an hour before getting in. If still slippery unfornately you need to empty and refill im afraid. Paul

@timcollard2403 Жыл бұрын

Do you leave the filter on all the time ?

@mgtracey Жыл бұрын

You need to let the pump run with the filter attached but you don’t need the heater on which is where the main power usage is if you’re not gonna be getting in for a day or so but you do need to clean the filter every couple of days and check the chlorine levels

@Cruiseblackpool Жыл бұрын

Out of interest how often do you use the hot tub? I’ve noticed I used it for 2 days and filling and heating first time I’ve calculated it I was to use it every other day and keep heating steady it’s around £5 per day. I think it’s safe to say my bills are easily going to be an extra £100 a month is this how much you pay extra? It’s a nightmare with the stupid energy companies ripping us off but I love using my hot tub.

@mgtracey Жыл бұрын

If not used regular let temp drop to 25 them set to 40 four hours before you use this will reduce costs . I think we may all need solar panels soon !

@Cruiseblackpool Жыл бұрын

@@mgtracey thanks and yes I was looking into this as an option. Have you seen solar panels on Amazon that could power just a hot tub? A total house powered by solar would be amazing and a great sod you to the governments total blundering of the energy crisis and allowing billions of pounds in profit by energy companies doing nothing about it. OFGEM are equally as corrupt and useless. Any solar setups you been looking at let us know thank you.
