I’ve had my lazy spa just a few days and was looking for a video that helped to tell me how to maintain the water temperature and not having running constantly as it’s cost me a lot so far just to get the temperature to 33 and I’m hoping your way will help a lot so I’ve turn it of and wait and see what it will be on tomorrow morning fingers crossed. This is the best video I’ve found and seen on this lazy spa well done guys brilliant 🤩 👍👍👍🥰

Great video, I’ve got a tip also, if the black rubber bits on the filter housing start curling up it can make it tricky to put the filter casing on without it catching and them not sitting on the filter correctly, my tip is to put the filter into the piece with the rubber bits first rather than the other way around, as it is easier not to trap the rubber bits and for them to sit correctly, hope this makes sense

Another tip I have is during the week I only use the Spa after work so after 4pm, when I’m finished using the spa I turn it off completely and turn it on first thing in the morning around 7am, cuts electricity costs by half and it’s fully heated for use when I finish work again

appreciate the time taken to make the video - mine is arriving soon! I'm going from a large 12ft above ground pool to a hot tub, based on the amount of faff it takes to keep a large pool going and the amount of use it (doesn't) get now my kids are older, despite the fact that I can now make one fill last the entire season, it's a lot of daily cleaning and maintaining . I'm intending to use my pool heater (it's a large efficient compressor type) and filter (sand based filter) that will hopefully reduce the costs of running the hot tub versus the inbuilt unit - will see what is involved to convert it - great tips & tricks!

Very clear and you mention all the little stuff that I know I'd get stressed about. As soon as you showed us the bubbles when you were in it, I could see that it would overflow if you'd filled it any higher.....there will often be 3 of us using it, so we'll probably need to fiddle with the level....I agree, they should change the indicators!

Finally just used mine for the first time and omg I've been so blessed having this. I will probably use it weather permitting nightly. But my question is why didn't you use the drain in the bottom instead of syphoning it out? I'm just going to pull the plug.. I also made the mistake of putting it too close to the house where I can't get around it. But as long as it took to get the temp to 99 even I will wait until I empty it to move it and I also learned maybe to put the water in between those level lines. Mine bubble over the top when I got in. I love this poor mans spa. It rocks. I can say that because I'm poor lol..

Hi Lynn always great to get comments and glad we helped. The pump, now there’s a good question. I have to admit, if there is one thing I would like is for the manufactures to make the pump quieter. We did have to move our own hot tub because our neighbour complained about the noise the pump/bubbles makes when you have the bubbles on. If you can we would advise to place the hot tub as far away as possible from a neighbours property, appreciate that might not be possible. If anyone has any great ideas to help make the pump quieter, apart from turning it off 😂 please comment. Enjoy the hot tub experience.

@thedrivebygg

You might have a faulty hot tub, from memory the valve closes when you remove either the main pump or the hand pump, you don’t actually have to do anything to close the valve. Once fully inflated you do have to put the valve cap back in place which is like a plug that twists shut.

Hi, with the inflatable lid on your Helsinki have you ever had water inside it if so what's the best way to drain it ? Thanks in advance
@thedrivebygg
@thedrivebygg 11 месяцев назад
Hi Jason we've never had water get into the inflatable lid section as the valve should stop this, but water does get trapped under the folds in the lid. As you might expect the only way to drain this would be to deflate the inflatable lid section and remove it from the lid, and then tip the lid upside down and drain the water out. If it really annoys use I would advise to lower the water level in the hot tub slightly, so the lid does not touch the water, or inflate the lid more so its nice and ensure the lid is strapped firmly to the hot tub straps. Thanks for commenting and hope this helps.

Great video. I had issues with both my lid, liner and then pump. It was just after 2 years but to be fair we wrote to lazy spa and they replaced the liner and the pump (on separate occasions). I've had a plumber add a hot outside tap to speed up the initial heating process and also top up the heat a touch in the winter/cold nights (whilst in it) I never get whether you can over inflate the lid or liner. I can only assume the air comes straight out of the pump if there is enough air in there.

Hi Andrew, when we fill ours with tap water it's typically at 11 degrees, to get it to 40 degrees will take just over 24 hours. If you do turn it off when not in use, make sure every couple of days you turn the filter on for at least 24 hours, and check the PH level, it's not pleasant getting in green water. Make sure when you inflate the hot tub, it's away from any walls, one viewer commented she got a puncture this way. Best of luck and enjoy, its a great hot and cold tub.

@thedrivebygg
@thedrivebygg 2 года назад
Hi Carly it’s a great question and one I’m sure will be on many peoples minds this year as energy prices rise. Don’t be afraid to turn the hot tub off completely in the summer in between uses, just make sure that every couple of days you put the filter on for a few hours and check chlorine levels. We turned the hot tub off at the wall once for 7 days without doing anything to it and the water was a green colour, and was a little slimy at the bottom so I wouldn’t recommend it. In the UK at the moment it’s close to 30 degrees, and the hot tub when switched off doesn’t drop below 33, which is a pleasant temperature to cool off in. In cooler weather it reaches 21 degrees when off. On average the water will take 1 hour to heat 1 degrees, but will be quicker in the summer. To answer your question we turn it off between uses and decide if we’re going to use it the following day. If we’re on holiday and at home we might keep it at 39 degrees and not turn it off.

Great video! Looking to buying one myself, how much did you pay?

Hi Adrian, full price was £870, it was on offer so paid £652. We’re really happy with it and enjoy it about 3 times a week. It’s well made, bubbles are magic and really relax the body. You will need to by a mat of some sort, chlorine, anti foaming, ph minus, and filters, but you can buy these kits online at Amazon etc. Cleaning is pretty straight forward although next time I would actually climb in the tub and celetap around the edges to get all the dirt and grit that collects over time. Your love it, don’t hesitate.

I don’t understand how to drain water out?? You just put a hose in it how does the water get sucked up?? The instructions in the manual make it seem like you unscrew the whole system and attach hose to the middle screw ..

The quickest and simplest way is to buy a pump, about £50 from memory. Alternatively you will need a hose and siphon the water out, it does work but can take along time to get the water moving.
