Hey, hot, tubers, welcome back.
I'm super excited.
You're here.
And the whole goal of this channel is for me to help you

And to do that, there's lots of things I do on this channel.
And one of the things that I do is I give you.
Free hot tub user's guide.
that'll be in the description down below.
That's totally free to you, and that will help you make your hot
tub last longer, which is one of the reasons that we're here today and
you know what guys, I'm here to help.
Just enjoy your hot tub.
So one of the questions that I do get on the sales floor very, very often is
how long is the hot tub going to last?
And the true answer to that question is how long, how well
are you going to take care of it?
That I have lots and lots and lots of hot tubs that have been out there that
are out there that are 15, 20, even 25.
In fact, I have one on my showroom floor.
That's from 1987.
It still runs.
I won't resell it at this point, but I do have them in the, and they do last
that long, but there are some keys that you need to do to make sure that
your hot tub does last, that long.
One of which probably the number one thing and the worst thing that can ever happen
to your hot tub is you let it freeze
and I have a whole playlist up here of things that you guys can do to
make sure that your hot tub doesn't freeze, but those of us that live in
the Midwest, it's really important to take care of your hot tub.
Make sure your filters are clean, make sure that the water levels have the
proper temperature make sure that your water level is at the proper height.
Make sure you have plenty of water in your hot tub.
And then just make sure that you're checking your hot tub and
it's at the proper temperature, at least once a week or so.
You just want to go out there and check your hot tub.
So that's the number one thing that will ruin a hot tub is letting it freeze.
The other things that will ruin a hot tub is water chemistry.
And I there's a lot of people out there, especially, you know, we
get people that are doing floater systems, the customers that are on.
Bromine and that type of thing, and even your salt systems, people will
be like, oh, everything's great.
The water's clear.
It looks fantastic.
in a case like that, and they aren't testing it, your water's actually,
most of that time is getting super acidic and what's getting super acidic.
Your water looks absolutely fantastic.
It's clear.
It looks good.
It doesn't always smell good, but it looks good.
And you think, oh, everything's.
It's actually really, really hard on your hot tub.
So anytime your alkalinity gets below 40 part per million, and that's actually a
little low for my likings, but anytime your alkalinity gets below 40 parts per
million, or that pH is below 7.6, you're actually causing damage to your hot tub.
You're also causing.
Causing damage to your body, but you are causing damage to your hot tub.
So it's really important to keep those two numbers are probably the most
important numbers you want to keep your alkalinity between 80 and 120, and
you want to keep your pH at seven six.
Now those of us that live in the Midwest and we have really hard
water, I mean like the liquid limestone coming out of the faucet.
You have the complete opposite situation going on in those situations.
So what happens on those is you get that really hard water and then
scale is forming and it's plugging up the lines and it's scaling up on
the heater and it's causing a lot of damage to the hot tub that way.
So it's really important that you get that alkalinity down where it needs to be.
And you're going to do that with PhD Creaser, and it's
going to take many, many days.
I have a video up here that just talks about how to balance your water.
It's much easier to balance water that is too low in alkalinity than it is balanced
water that is too high in alkalinity.
But as far as damage to your hot tub, they are about the same.
So it's really important that you get that alkalinity in line
and you get that pH in line.
You get those in line.
Your hot tub is going to last to 15 to 20 years, for sure.
Don't let it freeze.
Keep your alkalinity and pH in line.
Okay.
It's going to last you, and you're going to love it and you're going
to use it and it's just worth it.
It's worth a lot.
So guys, I have a ton of videos over here.
If you want to see more, just make sure you check them out right over here.
And remember, I love you here at the hot tub lady and keep making life.
Epic.
