Be sure to check out my other winter survival tip videos.... I have a whole play list. Oh and you guessed it cleaning your filter is mentioned in every one of them. th-cam.com/video/xisW92nNTXk/w-d-xo.html
we bought our hot tub this fall from a private individual. WE just had 20 below windchill between Christmas and New Year. It is about 20 feet from our back door. We got in it and enjoyed the temerature at 102 degrees
@@TheHotTubLady my wife actually bought a canopy that we put around our hot tub for privacy and also to keep the wind and snow out. All four sides can be open or closed and even have screens on them.
We ordered a Hot Springs Limelight Pulse. Sadly it isn’t projected for delivery until the first quarter of 2022 but hot tubs are one of those very popular items during these COVID times.
Great video, many thanks. But am I wrong to say that you did not mention what temp we should keep it at for the winter? I am in Quebec and it gets real cold. Of course I do not want to keep it at 104 all the time cause of the 💰. Any help would be much appreciated.
So your hot tub cost the most to run when it is heating living in Quebec I would hope you have a well insulated hot tub. If you have a quality brand you are better off to set it and leave it there. In extremely cold temps it will cost you more to heat it back up then keeping at a constant temp. If you like it hot 103 is as high as I would set it. If you leave at 104 you leave the your thermostat will be wide open the whole time. So 103 is good. I live in Northern South Dakota and it is cold here too.. not as cold as you but cold. I keep Mine at 102. I hope that helps
@@TheHotTubLady Oh thank you so very much for your help and advice. My wife and I just moved to the mountains of Quebec and we are in for a winter of hard cold and lots of snow. The house came with the hot tub and we know nothing about it or how to maintain it. We got the house in the summer so it was on and working and I played with the temperature etc and used it a few times and enjoyed it but with winter coming it is scary. I do not plan on using it a whole lot in the winter I don't think. And one of my worries is that if we lose power, and it happens up here, it will freeze etc. Is emptying it a big deal? I have seen some info on it and it looks a bit overwhelming. I honestly am a bit overhwlemed as to what to do with it this winter. This is all new to me. Any advice? Your kindness is so much appreciated.
@@TheHotTubLady One more thing, it is an older hot tub I think and it was put on a part of the property that is completely exposed to the elements (but the view from it is spectacular).
@@pageluvva well if you are going to drain it make sure u get it properly winterized. Like I would call a professional for the first year at least. If you are going to use it which I suggest. Make sure you clean your filters a minimum of once a month and you check your hot tub no matter how cold it gets every 5-7 days. Keep that temp up
@@kyleturner7627 I highly recommend either filling from a bucket or purchasing a collapsible hose geni.us/collapsiblehose and a brass sink adapter geni.us/gardenhoseadapter they work like a charm. You can also use the washer if you need to as well with a hose.
Hi ..what happens if your power goes out for awhile and its winter and freezing out how long do you have before things start freezing..any idea what to do in that situation?
Absolutely I know exactly what to do. Tell me what part of the country do you live and what kind of spa do you have. I’ll give you specifics on your circumstances!
I live in haliburton Ontario Canada we are cold from now till April..goes down to minus 40 celcius I believe that would be 40f ..I own a jacuzzi J325..I do all your preventive care on tub but I'm there every couple of days and worry the power will go out ..last time it went out I cracked a pipe and there was about a foot of water in the tub was Luke warm so i got the shop vac out and quickly took the water out and put RV antifreeze in the inlet and turned the jet pump on low for 5 secs to run antifreeze through pump and lines ..did the trick
@@rickattard2339 that was the perfect day thing to do. I would recommend blowing the lines out before the anti freeze. But yes that is a very food plan antifreeze is for sure the key

Thanks for the support Nice #kit 💯. Freeze Gaurd Kit by @sfhottublady kit.co/thehottublady/freeze-gaurd-kit

Agreed!!!
About to purpose a hot tub, what do you do to add water in winter months? Garden hose i eould imagine but how do you keep the sticker from freezing?
Hi Kyle I am thrilled to answer your questions however I am not sure what you are asking here
Spicket not sticker. How do you prevent your spicket from not freezing/bursting?
@@kyleturner7627 I highly recommend either filling from a bucket or purchasing a collapsible hose geni.us/collapsiblehose and a brass sink adapter geni.us/gardenhoseadapter they work like a charm. You can also use the washer if you need to as well with a hose.
thank you ma'am
Most welcome 😊
Hi, I just received my hot tub, I live in Canada and winter is pretty bad here. Are you suggesting I leaving it on all through the winter?
I am! I live in a pretty harsh environment myself. With some planning and proper care you can easily use your hot tub year round!
