Why Proper Pool and Hot Tub Water Treatment is Crucial for Your Health?

Maintaining clean, properly treated water in your pool and hot tub isn’t just about crystal-clear water—it’s about safeguarding your health. Poor water treatment can lead to serious health issues, such as Pseudomonas folliculitis, a skin infection commonly caused by exposure to bacteria in contaminated water. This, along with other waterborne illnesses, can occur when water quality is neglected.

The Risks of Hot Tubs

Hot tubs, in particular, are prime breeding grounds for bacteria due to their warm temperatures. Harmful microorganisms, like Pseudomonas, thrive in hot water environments if they are not treated regularly and correctly. That’s why maintaining a proper chemical balance is the only way to control bacteria growth in your hot tub and ensure your safety.

Key Steps to Keep Your Water Safe:

Regular Chemical Balance

Maintaining the right pH and sanitizer levels (such as chlorine or bromine) is critical to preventing bacterial growth. Regular testing and adjusting of your water chemistry will keep bacteria at bay and extend the lifespan of your pool or hot tub.

Routine Hot Tub Purging

Over time, biofilm and bacteria can build up in the pipes of your hot tub. Even if the water looks clean, these hidden bacteria can cause problems. Purging your hot tub and thoroughly cleaning the pipes every few months is essential to ensure that the entire system remains free of contaminants.
