LAY-Z-SPA St. Lucia AirJet Hot Tub, Round, 170 x 66 cm

Product Information

One of the easiest ways to reduce running costs is by using a good thermal hot tub cover. A cover will keep the heat in, meaning you won’t have to use as much energy to heat the water and can maintain a more consistent temperature once the water is heated. Insulated Base Remove the cover from Lay-Z-Spa to allow evaporation of the chlorine (keep the filter running constantly). When first filling up your spa, fill it with warm tap water rather than cold as this won’t need as much energy to go into heating it to the desired temperature. The most affordable square-style inflatable hot tub made by Lay-Z-Spa, the Ibiza is draped in a deep green PVC shell with i-beam-constructed walls. The Ibiza is also fitted with 140 air jets woven into the floor liner, with an easy-to-use control panel on top of the spa pump. ClearWater® is our chosen and recommended chemical provider. Developed with Lay-Z-Spa in mind, the range of ClearWater® hot tub chemicals includes everything needed to make sure your Lay-Z-Spa's water stays safe, clean and clear. Explore the table below which includes each product’s use and function.

pH measures how acidic or alkaline your water is and the ideal range for hot tubs is between 7.2 and 7.6. Balanced pH is necessary for other chemicals to work properly and imbalanced pH levels can impact your hot tub components and cause skin irritation. Please note: The table is only applicable to ClearWater Chemicals. Dosages are only approximate and the effect of chemicals on your water can vary each time you use them, depending on exact amount of water in your spa, water type, water temperature, positioning of spa etc. Therefore it is essential to test the water every time before you use it. By positioning your Lay-Z-Spa out of the wind, you will help it maintain a more consistent water temperature and reduce the need to regulate the water’s temperature more drastically. Windbreakers such as fences or buildings can also be effective at shielding your tub. Ensure Your Spa is Kept Clean

Daily, Weekly & Monthly Chemical Maintenance

When you’re ready to begin mixing your chemicals, you should handle them with chemical resistant gloves. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. It is also advised to wear tightly sealed goggles and appropriate protective clothing such as long sleeves, trousers, and closed-toed shoes that fully protect your feet from spills. You should also wash your hands after handling chemicals. Weekend usage = Heating to 40°C on Friday, using the AirJets for 45 mins on Saturday & 45 mins on Sunday and turning off the heat after use on the Sunday. Chlorine is a sanitiser that controls and prevents bacteria growth and is essential for the hot tub water to be clean and safe to use. The recommended Free Chlorine* level in a hot tub is 3-5ppm (parts per million). Make sure that any outdoor storage of chemicals is as far away from your hot tub as possible and in a dry, covered area. Humidity or even small amounts of water can cause chemical reactions that could lead to dangerous fumes.

Alongside the electrical usage and daily running costs of your spa, you’ll also need to consider maintenance costs. The main thing here is hot tub chemicals. Using the right chemicals is an essential part of being a responsible Lay-Z-Spa owner. The cushioned base of the hot tub adds an extra insulating barrier between your spa and the floor, preventing too much heat from leaching away. EnergySense Liner Made with sturdy I-Beam constructed walls and the hot tub comes with a reinforced cover to help keep unwanted debris out of the water.

Chemical Handling & Storage

Clearwater pH Minus , also known as ‘pH reducer’ is the most simple and effective way to decrease the pH of your spa water when it has surpassed the recommended level. pH minus can also be used to lower TA (Total Alkalinity) levels. Insulating the bottom of the spa with a floor protector helps reduce the heat lost through the bottom of the spa. As well as being cost-effective, this will also help to protect the spa against potential damages that can be caused by terrain. Reduce the Use of Massage Systems In recent years, more and more people have been enjoying the benefits of a relaxing at-home spa experience. However, despite all the perks of investing in your own hot tub, the cost of living remains high, so many will understandably be wary about managing the costs of running a spa. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Have a First Aid Kit available for any accidents The unique beige shell allows it to complement almost any style of garden. With Duraplus constructed walls that offer excellent UV protection, this wide-set circular Lay-Z-Spa can easily fit up to 6 adults amongst its 140 dynamic air jets and water you can heat to 40 degrees.

This traditional circular hot tub uses the brand’s patented Duraplus lining to provide a hard-wearing outer shell with a cushioned i-beam constructed interior. You’ll find a 110 air jet massage system lining the floor alongside winter frost protection and a rapid heater pump. In the event of spillage, clean up using clean receptacles and dispose of carefully. Do not add water to spilled materials. Do not use floor sweeping compounds to clean up spills. Sweep and scoop spilled material into clean, dedicated equipment. Around 60% of UK households are in hard or very hard water areas. To avoid scale build-up (which can impact water quality and pump components) use a weekly dose of ClearWater Scale & Stain Controller. The massage system needs energy to operate and can also cause heat loss in the water, so reducing the amount of time you run it will contribute to fewer overall running costs. Fill Your Spa With Warm WaterDesigned around an oval shape to better fit into narrow garden spaces, this is a great hot tub for socialising with up to 7 guests. Inside you’ll find cushioned i-beam walls to recline against and 180 powerful air jets with easy-to-reach controls via the digital panel on the pump. This uses circular beams and Duraplus constructed walls to provide a comfortable experience for up to 6 adults. Its wide and low design gives it a little more legroom than other comparably sized models, with 140 jets, rapid heating and built-in frost protection. These figures are based on the current (as of July 2023) energy tariff/price cap of 30p per kWh and assume the water will be heated to 40°C and the Airjets used for up to 1.5 hours per week. The lower end of the price range illustrated represents the projected costs for when a thermal cover is used. How Much Electricity Does a Lay-Z-Spa Use? The amount of pH increaser or decreaser you need to add to your hot tub depends on the volume of water and how low your readings are. Refer to the dosage information will be printed on the individual chemical bottles.
