Importance of Draining & Refilling Your Spa

Exclusive summary about Importance of Draining Hot Tub By Ronalg Parrs

That's why the spa MUST be regularly drained & refilled. But how often? Here's a formula...

1. Determine the number of gallons in the spa.

2. Divided the gallons by the average daily bather load (for example, 3 bathers, 2 times per week would equal approximately 1).

3. Then divide that number by 3 to get your answer (in days).

First example: a spa or hot tub with 300 gallons of water that is used by 2 people twice each day 5 - 7days (equals bather load of 4)

300 ÷ 4 = 75 ÷ 3 = 25 days or about once per month.

Second example: a spa or hot tub with 300 gallons of water that is used by 2 people once each day 5 - 7days (equals bather load of 2)

300 ÷ 2 = 150 ÷ 3 = 50 days or about once every 2 months.

This formula is not concrete, however it is a good guideline to follow. Depending on how much the spa is used directly determines how often it needs to be drained & refilled. Most commercial spas need to be drained & refilled their spas at least once per week! Or they should!
