Okay, so you’ve bought your hot tub, you’ve installed it and you’re ready to go and have a soak for the first time.

But have you checked the water yet?

Just as it is essential to treat the water in a swimming pool, so it is also vital to treat the water in a hot tub with specific hot tub chemicals.

What Hot Tub Chemicals Do You Need To Buy?

There are plenty of hot tub chemicals on the market — so many in fact that it can be confusing for the new spa or hot tub buyer to know what to buy. A lot of hot tub chemicals are designed to solve specific problems, and as such will not be required unless you find out your tub suffers from this problem. A typical example of this is having water that foams continually.

One of the main types of hot tub chemicals you will probably need to invest in is a product to keep the pH constant at around 7.2. This helps to keep your hot tub in optimum condition, and you will find products available that will raise or lower your pH respectively.

Keeping your hot tub water clean and healthy is of the utmost importance. Bromine tablets help achieve this quickly and easily, and do the same job that chlorine does in a swimming pool. You can use products containing chlorine in a hot tub as well, but bromine is better if you don’t like the strong smell that chlorine produces.

You may also want to invest in hot tub chemicals that prevent the build up of scale on your hot tub, caused by the effects of the water over time — much like your kettle will form scale, and for the same reasons. Hot tubs are harder to clean than kettles but, so any preventative measures you can take here will be worth the effort.

Some retailers have taken the hard work out of knowing which combination of hot tub chemicals to buy, and place together special packs which include a range of typical chemicals that will be needed for most hot tubs. Question at your local supplier to see if they do a kit like this — if not they be able to place one together for you. This can also save you money, so question if they will do a deal on the pack if one isn’t already offered.
