Should you be lucky enough to be the owner of a Jacuzzi, then you probably already know enough about all of the little things that should and should not be done in and around a Jacuzzi, things like safety concerns, maintenance and care.
But, should you be thinking of getting one installed any time soon, you may want to do a little homework to ensure that you will enjoy it as much as possible. Things such as “How long should you stay in a Jacuzzi?”“Is it safe to drink alcohol?” etc.
So, let’s have a little peek at what you should and maybe shouldn’t do before lowering yourself into that glorious steamy tub.
Take a Shower
Firstly, always have a nice soapy shower before entering to help reduce any likelihood of the spa water becoming adulterated and thus minimise any health risks.
Any oils or moisturisers on your body, can build up in the tub.
And besides, it just feels great to enter a nice clean Jacuzzi.
Try Limitingthe Soak Time
Limit your soak times to no more than 15 to 20 minutes, cool down and then re-enter if you wish to.
Try to Limit Alcohol Usage
On TV and films people in Jacuzzis are always knocking back the drink!
However, you really should refrain from drinking alcohol prior to or during spa use due to its possibility of making you drowsy,which may lead to accidents.
Spa Ventilation
If your Jacuzzi is inside your home insufficiently ventilated, you may experience some minor throat or eye irritation. Natural ventilation or by employing an extractor fan should do the job, but for reasons of safety, consult with professional Jacuzzi installers in Surrey about anything and everything with regards the very best in top quality Jacuzzi products.
If you’re Pregnant, Have a Chat with a Doctor
Ladies, if you are indeed pregnant, you really should consult with a medical professional ahead of jumping in.
Make Sure You Have Handrails and Non–Slip Surfaces
Handrails and non-slip surfaces are a must to help minimise the risk of slipping, sliding or falling about.
Remember that wet surfaces are normally slippery, so please be careful entering and leaving your Jacuzzi
Use of the Cover
Make good use of the thermal cover when the tub is not in use, empty or full and ensure that it is firmly locked if you have any children or pets nearby.
Make Sure to Test Water’s Temperature
Conduct a water test with your hand prior to entering your tub to make sure it is comfortable and not too hot.
Contact Lenses Should Be Removed
Remove contact lenses before entering your Jacuzzi, despite the chemicals in the water, wearing lenses can put you at a higher risk of getting an eye infection.
That’s Not Difficult is it?!
Simply enjoy yourself and have a great time!
