FAQs

Do you inflate the bottom of a Coleman inflatable hot tub? ›

That pillow you are talking about goes in the cover . The bottom of the spa has a Matt but does not inflate ! The only 2 things that inflate is the spa and the cover pillow .

The tripping of the GFCI could be one of 2 things. Either the GFCI is bad or has moisture in it, or the pump has failed and is causing the trip. Do not keep trying to reset it at this time as it could be a fire hazard. But it is not uncommon for moisture to get in the plugs and such and cause this.

Hold on to that first soak, though—it takes nearly 24 hours to fully heat up if filled with cold tap water, and you will need to balance the chemicals. While the Coleman reaches a max temperature of 104 degrees Fahrenheit, you likely won't need to have it heated at that level when not in use.

Inflatable hot tubs should not be placed directly onto the ground, but rather on a flat surface such as concrete, paving slabs, or hot tub tiles. To ensure it is level and to protect it from debris, you may also wish to use a foam hot tub pad underneath inflatable tubs.

No Seats. Inflatable hot tubs don't have molded seats or a bench-type platform for sitting. Instead, you're seated on the floor of the hot tub at ground level. Because of this, it may not be as comfortable for longer soaking sessions, and may also be difficult for some to get in and out.

When considering the lifespan of your new hot tub, you can expect to receive around 5 -7 years of use out of an inflatable hot tub compared to 20+ years of use from a hardshell hot tub.

Shocking your hot tub every week is an easy way to give it a bacteria-busting and contaminant-killing hygiene boost. Make it part of your regular hot tub maintenance routine to make sure your sanitiser works as effectively as possible to keep your spa squeaky clean.

The short answer is yes, you can use your inflatable spa in the winter. However, if you're leaving it set up and running, inflatable models struggle to maintain their water temperature once the outside temp drops below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. They simply aren't built with the insulation necessary to keep up.

Generally, you can leave hot tubs on continually because they are supposed to operate like that. It's also more economical than heating the water from cold each time you want a luxurious soak. Some hot tubs have particularly good insulation, and a hot tub's cover (if you use it) will help keep heat loss to a minimum.

It's also important to note that Epsom salt is not recommended for use in inflatable hot tubs, and its safety in jetted bathtubs should be verified by consulting the manufacturer's website or owner's manual. Let's take a closer look at the reasons behind this and the possible issues that could arise.

Can I use vinegar to clean my inflatable hot tub? ›

If you're focusing on stain or mold removal, try cleaning with the following: Dish soap and warm water. Baking soda and white vinegar (for stubborn stains)

Poor Thermal Energy Efficiency

The third reason is that they are not as energy efficient as traditional hot tubs; this means that you may be spending more money on electricity, in the long run, to heat your portable spa tub.

Depending on how long you plan to spend in your hot tub, as well as the preferences of those using it, the temperature should be kept anywhere from 35 degrees C to 38 degrees C. This will ensure that your electricity bills don't spike too much.

We went around and around until the perfect solution arose—the Coleman Saluspa inflatable hot tub. After months of testing, it's safe to say that this portable hot tub is a great low-cost way to dip your toes into hot tub ownership.

This is completely normal due to the nature of an inflatable product. Lay‑Z‑Spas are constructed to bear this in mind so the base of the spa liner will be slightly bigger allowing for this expansion.

Place your pump system near the hot tub and plug it in (using an extension cord and/or a waterproof outlet). Next, connect the pump hose (pump outlet on one side and inflation valve on the other). Most pump systems use the massage mode or blower to inflate the tub. Put your pump into this mode and inflate your hot tub.

A: Actually when we inflated the hot tub we also put a rounded piece of styrofoam insulation under the tub before we filled it. I find that it is very comfortable and it also helps to insulate the tub.

The stopper caps attach to the inlet and outlet points on the inside of the inflatable liner, to prevent flooding if you need to disconnect your heater pump, or you're packing your spa away for the season.
