HOT TUB SAFETY GUIDELINES

Shower with soap and water before and after using the hot tub. Showering before use washes away many of the common skin bacteria and removes lotions, deodorants, creams etc. which reduce the effectiveness of the spa sanitizer which disinfects the water.

Parents are advised that the hot tub is not suitable for children under the age of four.

Never allow children to use the spa unsupervised and when not in use make sure the cover is on and secured.

Parents are to warn children not to allow water in their mouths as this can cause infection and illness.

Persons with heart disease, diabetes, low or high blood pressure, or any serious illness should not enter the hot tub without prior consultation with their doctor.

During pregnancy soaking in the hot tub may cause damage to the foetus so contact your doctor for advice before entering the water.

Never use the hot tub while using or after using narcotics, any other drugs and excessive alcohol.

At 39-40°C, limit your timed in the hot tub to a maximum of 15 mins. At 36-37°C this time can be extended up to 1 hour.

Do not immerse your head in the hot tub water. This increases the risk of infection and a drowning risk can occur when a bathers hair becomes entangles in a drain cover. Never allow children (or anyone) to play with heads underwater in a hot tub.
