While fun and laughter are important, using a hot tub also means thinking about comfort and safety. This is especially true if you have small children or older adults using it. Below are our top tips for all spa owners.
Care Free™ Water Care System:
First and foremost, your hot tub water needs to be well maintained to provide a comfortable experience for bathers. The CARE FREE™ water care system is simple to use. It is a weekly 4-in-1 system.
This system includes water clarifiers, enzyme biofilm disruptors, a sequestering agent, and oxidizing components. This combination lessens the amount of traditional chlorine required and adding the Soft Water Enhancer to your water care makes the water softer on the skin. Another beneficial component is the CLEARTECH™ UVC, which will take your water to unparalleled levels of sterilization. A hot tub cover helps to maintain this cleanliness.
Checkerplate™ Non-Slip:
Checkerplate™ Non-Slip surface is found in all main stepping areas of the tub. This includes the steps and seats. For a more practical experience, we created this proprietary anti-slip flooring that is added directly into the acrylic during the moulding process. Checkerplates are part of a permanent design style that promotes better grip while using your spa.
Cooling Seat or Bench:
Cooling off periods are essential to avoid overheating. With your health and safety in mind, all Beachcomber’s hot tub models feature a Cooling Seat or Cooling Bench with no Water-ports or FlexJets™. Strategically located near the entry point of the hot tub, the seat or bench doubles as an area for children and adults to cool down and reset, and a step to help enter and exit the hot tub.
The optimal water temperature for bathing is 38°C and should be lowered for children or older adults. Using the cooling bench intermittently throughout your soak ensures the safest bathing experience.
SafeAxiss Steps:
Our specially designed SafeAxiss steps allow you to step in and out of your Hybrid4 hot tub comfortably and easily from any angle. Custom made with non-slip surfacing; the durable, UV protected, weather resistant SafeAxiss steps provide ease of use for anyone, regardless of age and physical ability.
LEEP Safety Step:
If you own our LEEP hot tub, or any other hot tub, adding the LEEP Safety Step will improve everyone’s experience. Ease yourself in and out of the hot tub with minimal effort.
Beachcomber Hand Rail:
Adding a handrail alongside your steps brings accessibility to the next level. The Beachcomber Hand Rail with LED light makes stepping in and out of your hot tub simple, especially in the dark evenings. This is an easy to install, versatile addition to any Beachcomber Hot Tub.
Create Safer, Happier Soaks for Everyone
Investing in the right accessories and maintaining proper water care transforms your hot tub into a safe and welcoming retreat for the whole family. Whether you're splashing with kids, enjoying a quiet evening with seniors, or simply seeking a peaceful solo soak, these safety features and best practices ensure your experience is both enjoyable and worry-free. At Beachcomber, we believe your spa time should bring relaxation, connection, and peace of mind – every time you step in.
