CHANGING THE HOT TUB WATER
A hot tub should be drained every 8-12 weeks, depending on size and amount of use. If your hot tub is used
daily or by a large number of bathers, the water should be drained more o en. One method to determine the
approximate length of me between water changes is to divide the water volume (in liters) of your hot tub by
13.5 and then divide by the average number of bathers each day.
