Softub - Frequently Asked Questions

   
How is the water heated?
The heat dissipated by the motor heats the water up to 40° C. The desired temperature is controlled by the electronic thermostat. The motor is cooled and a separate heater is not required. Heat loss is kept to a minimum thanks to the excellent insulation of the tub, resulting in low electric power consumption.

What is the Softub spa made of?
It consists of 25 (5mm thick) sheets of polypropylene foam which are hot-welded together. The outer covering is WeatherTex – a plastic foil used in boat building.

How much does it cost to operate?
Softubs are very easy on the wallet. With the water at a constant temperature of 40° C and 2 bathing sessions a day, the electric power costs per model and day are approximately as follows: Sportster €0.22; Legend €0.40; Resort €0.60.

How is water run into and drained out of the spa?
The spa is filled with a hosepipe. If a hot water connection is available, you can enjoy the hot tub immediately. The water is drained by a simple immersion pump. Or if the surface beneath the spa is suitable, simply disconnect the motor and spa to drain the water.

How long does the water remain in the Softub spa?
With the right maintenance, you only need to change the water every 2-3 months.

How do I treat the water?
Very little maintenance is required thanks to the ozone system. A pH value of 7.2 – 7.6 is required to maintain excellent water quality. To keep the water sanitary we recommend adding chlorine or active oxygen once or twice a week. Both products are included in the starter set. Every time you change the water, simply rinse out the cartridge filter inside the spa briefly.

How long is the guarantee?
Subject to proper use, a full two-year guarantee is given on the spa and motor.
