Why Keep Your Hot Tub Covered?
Regularly using a quality hot tub cover from a reputable hot tub company is a wise choice for numerous reasons, including easier hot tub maintenance, improved energy efficiency, and hygiene.
Energy Efficiency
Covering your hot tub after using it can help retain the heat inside. This will keep the water warmer until your subsequent use. During your next use, less time and energy will be required to heat your hot tub to the desired temperature, as some of the heat was retained from the previous use. This can lead to lower energy consumption and overall lower operating costs, helping you save money on every use.
Hygiene
Keeping your hot tub covered is a wise hot tub maintenance practice that can help keep your water cleaner. It is natural for foliage and dirt to make their way into your hot tub, especially if it is left open. It is even possible for animals and birds to take a dip if your hot tub is left wide open. Covering your hot tub can keep bugs, pests, and debris out of your pool, keeping your water healthier. This way, you’ll also have to spend less time cleaning your hot tub.
Chemical Balance
Keeping your hot tub covered will allow for stable chemical levels. When your hot tub remains covered, fewer contaminants can enter your water, allowing your water chemistry to stay more consistent.
Safety
It is wise to keep your hot tub closed when it is not in use to prevent young children or pets from accidentally entering the water by mistake. A secure cover can prevent accidents, slips, and falls.
