Cleaning and purifying the water in your hot tub may not sound as easy or pleasant as it seems. Scraping off dirt and residue from various parts of the hot tub, constantly using the foul-smelling chlorine and bromine - heck, it sounds like hot tubs are all trouble, right?

Well, not necessarily. You can easily make the hot tub maintenance much easier by installing hot tub ozonators. These things generate ozone gas, which is then introduced to the water. Then the real fun begins. Ozone gas acts as a water disinfectant, purifier and cleaner, killing all bacteria, viruses, yeasts, mol, mildews and cysts on contact, while leaving no trace whatsoever, except bubbles in the water. Speaking in scientific terms, (let’s remember chemistry here) when an ozone molecule comes to contact with the bacteria, an oxygen atom is separated from the molecule and it then attaches to the bacteria itself. The result of the process above means one thing - the bacteria is killed. Instantly. After doing its job, the ozone molecule transforms to oxygen.

Hot tub ozonators also highly reduce the need to use various water cleaning chemicals, like chlorine and bromine. That is a very nice thing, because you can kiss good-bye the dreaded chlorine smell, which is already typically associated with all the swimming pools and hot tubs. Hot tub ozonators, however, do not fully remove all other water cleansing means from the picture, but as mentioned before, greatly reduce the need to use them, and makes the whole process much more effective.

All this together means that the hot tub ozonators clean the water about 3,000 times faster that all-chemical-only water cleaning methods. Additionally, when chlorine is not used so often, the probability of skin irritation and burning sensation of the eyes, decreases significantly, too. So in all, the use of hot tub ozonators saves money and saves your well-being while making your hot tub water crystal clear and pure. When you employ hot tub ozonators, water quality remains better and you can keep the same water in the hot tub for longer. This will in turn decrease the wear and tear of your hot tub.

Hot tubs have been around for centuries for relaxation as well as for medicinal purposes. If you have back pain, a tub can help you relieve the aches and pains you feel by loosening the muscles and massaging them. Hot tubs are great tools to use for a variety of medical conditions. If you have back pain, this is especially true because the hot water will provide a soothing area to stretch and will also massage and loosen the muscles to help you be more flexible and pain free.

Hot tub Hydrotherapy: Before starting any exercise program or spa therapy, first check with your doctor. Depending on your situation, your physician may have certain exercises to do or a regular regimen that may differ from others based on your individual needs. The doctor may also recommend the twice daily hot tub sessions be a certain temperature and duration to ensure maximum relief. The first thing in the morning, a soak in the hot tub and some water exercise provides a safe and pleasant way to warm up the joints and increase freedom of movement. It also loosens up tight muscles from the previous evening’s rest. A maximum of a half hour in the spa is usually sufficient to get the needed exercises in and loosen up the joints. At the end of the day, when, as the body cools down, stiffness and pain may again set in. The end of the evening is ideal for another half hour session in the hot tub. Instead of exercises, though, relaxation and use of the hot tub’s jets to passively massage the muscles ease the body and mind. Read more…
