How long you stay in a spa depends on several factors, including your age, health, climate, water temperature and personal preference. A general rule of thumb is that it is best to spend 15 to 45 minutes in a spa at a temperature up to 38.5°C.

If you are using a spa for the first time, we recommend starting with shorter baths until you gradually build up your tolerance, adapt yourself to the environment or figure out what suits you best. If you have a pre-existing health problem, we recommend consulting with your doctor first to make sure you can enjoy hydrotherapy in the safest way possible.

How often should I clean my filter?

A clean and functioning filter is the key to a well-functioning filtration system because it collects and removes dirt and debris, keeping the water clean and free of impurities. We recommend that you rinse out the filter every two weeks with clean water from the garden hose or faucet. You can also use this time to hose off the filter with a filter cleaner and then rinse it further.

Filter cleaning nozzles are available that can be attached to the end of a hose, allowing the water to better reach the nooks and crannies of the filter. Every two months, soak the filter overnight in a bucket filled with water and a small amount of filter cleaner to remove debris. We recommend replacing your spa filter annually to ensure a fully functional filtration system.

What is hydrotherapy?

The combination of heat, buoyancy and massage helps relax muscles, soothe painful joints, improve circulation and reduce muscle tension.
