Hot tubbers are not disappointed when the weather takes on a bit of a chill. They know the best hot tub season is just beginning.

Fall is a time when the whole family wants to use the spa more regularly. Especially if the spa water hasn’t been changed in a few months, just before the chilly weather arrives, drain and clean the hot tub. Photo: Bullfrog Spas

All it takes to empty a hot tub is a standard garden hose. Photo: Bullfrog Spas

It’s also a good time to clean the spa filters which are very easy to remove. Just place the spa in “Hold” mode and remove the FilterCap and filter plate, take out the cartridge and use the same garden hose you used to empty the spa to spray water over the filter’s pleats. Photo: Bullfrog Spas
