How and When to Shock your Hot Tub
To keep your water safe, you will need to shock your inflatable hot tub. This needs to be done:
- The first time you fill up your hot tub. Every time you re-fill your hot tub.
- If the water turns a different colour or looks cloudy.
- If the water smells.
- If there is any sign of slime or algae.
- If foam appears.
- If there has been an accident (urine).
- After heavy use eg:
- Used 4-5 times a week – Shock weekly
- Used occasionally – Shock every 2-3 weeks.
How to shock your inflatable hot tub
- Use chlorine granules (multi-tabs cannot be used to shock, as these dissolve too slowly).
- Shock overnight, as you need to wait 24 hours before using.
- Add the recommended amount of chlorine to water (NEVER add water to chemicals), using a mixing jug.
- Turn on the air jets then add the dissolved chlorine from the jug.
- Keep the cover off to allow the air to circulate, ensuring the chlorine is not overpowering. Continue to run your hot tub circulation pump for 15 minutes.
- Put the cover back on and leave overnight.
- Check the chlorine level to ensure it’s in the range of 3 parts per million to 5 parts per million (ppm).
- Once in this range the hot tub is safe to use.
