How to Keep Your Hot Tub From Freezing

When the weather outside is frightful, the last thing you want to worry about is a frozen hot tub. Luckily, there are a few simple ways to keep your spa happy, even during the coldest months of the year--so grab a coat and get ready to do a little winter TLC for your hot tub!

Keeping Your Hot Tub Safe

A frozen hot tub is no fun. Not only does it keep you out in the cold--it can also lead to problems with the pipes and vital functions.

The good news is that you don't have to cross your fingers and hope for the best every time it gets chilly. Instead, use these quick tips to keep your hot tub happy over the winter:

Check the basic stuff.

Water level and temperature are a big deal when it comes to protecting your hot tub. Make sure both stay within normal ranges.

Grab a cover.

Hot tub covers are an important investment. They keep stuff out (like snow, debris, kids, and pets), and they keep other stuff in (like water and heat). Keep one in your arsenal to help protect your spa from the elements.

Turn off the jets.

Jets are great when you're in the spa, but not so much when the hot tub is by itself. Turn them off when you get out--that way, the heater doesn't get overworked.

Don't drain.

Draining your hot tub right before a freeze can cause trouble. Why? Well, even a complete drain leaves some water in pipes and other internal components--and, you guessed it, that water can freeze and cause big trouble.

Conclusion

Your hot tub should be an oasis any time of year--but to keep it happy during the winter months, you'll need to take a few extra steps. Just keep the basics in mind, like water level and temperature, and remember not to drain the water or leave the jets on. Your spa--and everyone who uses it--will thank you!
