St. Patrick’s Day: No Green Allowed in Your Hot Tub!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day:

Keep the Green in Your Beer, Not in Your Hot Tub!

 

St. Patrick’s Day, that time of the year when rivers run green, beers turn emerald, and people everywhere don their best green attire. It’s a celebration filled with parades, good cheer and song, and an abundance of green-themed festivities. While dressing in green and enjoying a pint of green beer is a fun way to celebrate, there’s one place where green should never be seen – your hot tub!

A green hot tub is definitely not a cause for celebration. If you notice your spa water has taken on a greenish hue, it’s likely signaling the presence of algae or an imbalance such as high alkalinity. Not only does this make your hot tub less inviting, but it can also be a warning sign of underlying issues that need your immediate attention.

The Usual Suspects: Algae and High Alkalinity

 

Algae in hot tubs can occur due to a variety of factors, including inadequate sanitation, poor water balance, or insufficient filtration. It thrives in warm, stagnant water, especially if your hot tub cover has been left off too long, letting in sunlight and contaminants.

High alkalinity, on the other hand, can make your hot tub water cloudy and scale to form along the water line and on the heating elements, reducing the efficiency of your hot tub and making the water environment unpleasant.
