Swimming pool heaters are fantastic, they can easily be installed into your swimming pool and with a flick of a switch your pool can be lovely and cosy, regardless of whether it’s ice-cold and snowing outside; but how do these heat pumps work? We explain.

How Do They Work?

Electric heat pumps work like an air conditioning unit, in that they take warm air from outside and use the energy found in the outdoor atmosphere to heat the air. This is then pumped into your pool to warm it through.

It is this method of upgrading the energy already in the atmosphere that allows this particular swimming pool heater to be energy efficient. This is one of the reasons why this particular model is favoured by homeowners across the UK, as it cuts down on running costs.

Where Can I Find One?

A hot tub can make a cosy home for a number of bugs and bacteria which could be harmful to your health. These bugs are particularly fond of dark and warm places, such as your hot tub filter or the pipes leading to your tub. Not taking sufficient care of the water in your hot tub could also cause it to become cloudy and murky, which never makes for a welcoming place to spend an hour or two. A filter cartridge cleaner, such as Fi-Clor Spa Cartridge cleaner, can help to keep your water clear and inviting. When a build-up of minerals and grease leaves your spa water cloudy, Fi-Clor Spa Water Clarifier can return your hot tub to its best.

Cleaning your spa features three essential stages which are vital to ensure that your hot tub water is always healthy.  When starting up your spa after a long period, for example during the winter when you leave your outdoor pool behind and head indoors to the spa, shock chlorination should be carried out to clean every part of the system.

To keep your hot tub in top condition throughout the winter, invest in the highest quality hot tub chemicals available from the Swimming Pool Store.

When using hot tub chemicals, it is important to remember a few important tips.

Read the Instructions

You don’t need a degree in chemistry to take care of your hot tub, but you do need some common sense. Make sure you read any instructions which accompany the product you are using to ensure that your hot tub is cleaned safely.

Although you may have experience of using other swimming pool accessories, we recommend that you never clean your hot tub without being certain of how to correctly use these chemicals.

Never Mix Chemicals

Here at The Swimming Pool Store, we stock a wide range of hot tub chemicals for a variety of maintenance requirements, so you will never need to mix chemicals yourself to get the results you require. It is also important to add chemicals to water, never to your empty hot tub.

Store Chemicals Safely

When keeping hot tub chemicals at your home, it is important to store them out of the reach of children. Chemicals should also be kept cool and dry to ensure that they are always in the optimum condition for use.

Even if you are an experienced hot tub owner who can maintain your own swimming pool heaters and carry out your own plumbing Bath, we still recommend that you follow the advice of an expert when it comes to using chemicals.

Clean water is essential to have a hot tub which is safe to use. Whether you are filling your hot tub for the first time, or refilling it after it has stood empty, make sure you follow our advice and always use your hot tub chemicals from The Swimming Pool Store safely and responsibly.
