Hot Tub

To keep the water clean during your evening of jet setting, please take a shower before jumping in and remove any makeup, fake tan and hair extensions.

Remove the lid with both of you and place to one side.

Check the temperature, this should show on the control panel on the side of the hot tub this should be around 37 degrees.

Use the control panel to start the jets and turn on the lights. There are a few extra buttons on the control panel, do not use these as they will turn off the recommended settings of your hot tub.

Jump in and enjoy!

Once you have finished with the hot tub, remember to turn off the jets to reduce the noise and replace the lid so it keeps at temperature for when you next want to jump in.

Top Tub Tips

If you find your hot tub is too hot, leave the hot tub lid off for a while and keep an eye on the temperature on the control panel.

If you find some of the jets are not jetting to their full capacity, they may need opening. You can do this by rotating the casing of the jet into the open position.
