General Information for use

​

Upon arrival Martin will run through how to use the Hot Tub, however, it would be appreciated if you would

kindly familiarise yourself with the Hot Tub guide (below, the in property folder, Airbnb listing, notices) before use & Please do not alter any of the settings / nozzles  or dials on the Hot Tub

It is set for optimum Spa experience and any alteration will likely affect the Heat Exchanger, Filtration, and Chemical performance. This can result in contaminants entering the water and the Hot Tub being out of use for part of your stay.

To avoid disappointment, kindly use only as detailed on Airbnb, on this page, notices and in property folder.

The Hot Tub Spa is kept to Health & Safety HSG282 standard, which is high maintenance, so I ask that you remember it is not a Bathtub. Please follow all guidelines, including showering before use.

Failure to follow any of the simple guidelines may prevent future guests from using the facility and that would clearly be unacceptable.

NB. As stated on Airbnb the Hot Tub will not be available on your day of departure, as a shock treatment is used very early in the morning.

​

What we do: 

 

In line with Health & Safety Guidance HSG282 the hot tub water quality is monitored and maintained daily to offer a safe Spa experience.
When heavily used the water may require shock treatment. This involves Martin administering an additive before running the jets for 15 minutes, then testing. If a more aggressive sanitiser is subsequently required, then Martin may need to ask that you refrain from using the hot tub, until the correct balance is achieved.
We use natural minerals for water conditioning when and wherever possible, we also recycle hot tub water and use it for watering the garden - this involves underground storage whilst the pH returns to its natural level. 
 
What we ask of you: 

​
​KINDLY SHOWER BEFORE USING THE HOT TUB
​This sounds counter intuitive, of course, but a shower before using the spa is essential, as lotions, potions, make up, Gels, shampoos, soaps & body oil WILL have a severely detrimental effect on water quality, reducing your enjoyment / usable time of the spa.
As this will likely need harsher chemicals to counteract, it could regrettably put the Hot Tub out of use for part of your stay.
It also severely shortens the life of the filters.

No glass to be taken into the Hot Tub area

Please remove make-up, body lotions, potions, or oils before entering the hot tub.
​Also never add anything to the water, as this may react adversely to the water conditioning minerals.

Never use the Hot Tub if there is a risk of lightning, i.e., before, during or after a storm.
For Safety - The Hot Tub will be turned off during severe weather.
