There’s nothing better than slipping into your backyard spa after a long day. But while your spa is all about relaxation, keeping it safe and functional does take some responsibility. That’s where Valley Building Inspections can help. Along with professional spa inspections, here are seven spa upkeep basics we want every homeowner to know.
Your spa’s water needs regular testing for pH, alkalinity, and sanitizer levels. Imbalanced water can damage equipment, irritate the skin, and reduce the lifespan of your spa.
Filters trap dirt, debris, and oils. Rinse them every couple of weeks and perform a deep clean monthly to keep the water clear and the systems running smoothly.
Low water pressure or irregular jet flow could signal a clog or leak. Catching these early prevents costly repairs later.
Your spa’s pump, heater, and lighting rely on proper wiring. Any flickering lights or tripped breakers are signs it’s time for an inspection.
Cracks in the shell, loose tiles, or damaged decking can lead to leaks and unsafe conditions. Don’t ignore cosmetic issues because they often worsen quickly.
The desert sun and heat can be harsh on spa covers and exterior surfaces. Use protective covers and schedule seasonal checks to extend your spa’s lifespan.
Even with excellent upkeep, some issues are hidden. Valley Building Inspections offers spa inspections that cover plumbing, electrical, structure, and more – giving you confidence that your oasis is truly safe.
