Spa Maintenance Checklist
Expert Pool & Spa, Inc.

• Daily
  • Check the water level in the spa on a daily basis.  Not enough water can damage the spa and cause the pump to run dry.  Too much water will not usually hurt the spa and it will simply spill over the side when a bather enters the spa.
  • Test and Adjust the spa water chemistry.  Testing at least once per week minimum is required.  Maintain the Sanitizer, pH and Alkalinity levels correctly.
  • Check for proper operation and circulation.  Especially if your spa is operating outside and in the winter freezing months.  Moving water will not freeze so circulation is critical for freeze prevention.
  • Check for leaks
  • Use the spa!
