The summer weather may be simmering down, but it doesn’t mean the water fun has to stop. While you may be closing your pool for the season soon, your hot tub can remain in use all year long. But how can you turn a relaxing soak into a hot, hot, hot experience?
With hot tub accessories! Hot tub accessories can come in all shapes and sizes to be useful, enhance relaxation, and add some fun! Take a look at these spa accessories you need!
Spa Accessories You Need For Your Personal Spa
Spa accessories can play an important role in keeping your spa in top condition. By using these accessories, you can reduce maintenance time, extend the life of your spa, and enjoy a cleaner, more relaxing soak.
1. Chlorine Floaters
Keeping your spa in top shape can be tedious. But finding accessories that make it easier to maintain makes it much simpler. Chlorine tablets and floaters are designed to maintain chlorine levels within your hot tub. While these are great for maintaining your spa when it’s not in use, you must remove them when people are using it.
2. Spa Steps
Some spas have steps built into them, while others may require climbing into them. But that can be a real hassle! Spa steps can really be a game-changer.
No more clumsy in and out of the hot tub. You’ll have a safer entrance and exit and even railings if you need them!
3. Hot Tub Vacuum Cleaner
Maintenance is a big theme here, so a hot tub vacuum should be no surprise. Even if you use a cover, debris, dirt, and sand can still accumulate on the ground. A hot tub vacuum with manual suction, also known as a spa wand or manual vacuum, is often the best. In addition, there are battery-operated and rechargeable vacuums to make cleaning easier!
These spa vacuums should operate with lower suction power than those for above-ground and in-ground swimming pools. If you’re using a swimming pool and spa vacuum, make sure you change your settings as needed. Dirt and debris collect at equal rates for pools and spas, so expect both to require consistent cleaning.
4. Hot Tub Scrubber
A hot tub scrub is great for maintaining the cleanliness and longevity of your spa. It helps remove dirt, grime, and biofilm buildup from the surfaces of the tub that battery-operated vacuums might not reach. Some parts that a vacuum cleaner might struggle with include:
- Shell
- Jets
- Control panel
- Skimmer with filter
Regular scrubbing prevents the growth of bacteria, mold, and algae, ensuring a hygienic soaking experience.
It also helps maintain the aesthetic appeal of the hot tub by keeping it free of stains and discoloration. Plus, a clean spa operates more efficiently, as buildup can interfere with the filtration and heating systems.
5. Umbrella
Looking to add a little pizzazz to your backyard? Place an umbrella near your spa! Not only does it block the sun while you soak, but some umbrellas can be mounted to the side of your hot tub, making them secure and practical.
However, while you may think you can soak during a storm–we caution you against it! Opening an umbrella during stormy conditions can increase the risk of weather-related umbrella failure, which can not only put you at risk of injury but also damage the hot tub itself.
6. Cover Lift
There is nothing more frustrating than a hot tub cover that you have to fight with to get on and off. The point of your spa is to relax, not be tense! A cover lift can help.
Not only does it make removing and putting on your cover easier, but it can also protect your spa from damage when it is not in use. A battery-operated cover lift can take out most, if not all, of the hard work.
7. Spa Lights
Spa lights are specialized lighting fixtures designed for use in spas. They serve both functional and aesthetic purposes, enhancing the experience in several ways. They provide essential light for nighttime relaxation, making the area safer and more accessible after dark. This helps to prevent accidents and improve visibility, allowing you and your guests to see the hot tub’s edges and any obstacles.
Overall, these lights enhance both the safety and beauty of your backyard oasis, making them a valuable addition to any setup.
