Here are some hot tub safety rules that everyone should be aware of before using the tub. 1. The tub is to be used responsibly and is not to be used as a substitute wading pool by children. Allowing children to jump or dive into the water is not permitted under any circumstances. Children must not use the spa unsupervised at any time. No infants or toddlers in the spa. 2. Temperature is set at 101 degrees, would not go higher than 102 degrees. 3. Please shower before using the tub to remove make-up, sun-screen, insect repellent or any other oil-based products. 3. Only clean swimwear may be worn in the tub as the chemicals in the water will remove the colored dyes found in ordinary clothing, causing them to leach into the water and turn it cloudy. 4. Prevent accidental drowning. Leave the hot tub cover on and latched when the spa is unsupervised. 5. Prevent Hyperthermia. Understand that alcohol and other medications greatly increase the chance of hyperthermia – the opposite of hypothermia. This occurs when the internal body temperature reaches several degrees above the normal temperature of 98.6 degrees. 6. NO GLASS in the hot tub EVER...please use plastic or provided stainless steel wine glasses 7. Do not use a hot tub if you are taking any medication that makes you drowsy or affects your circulation; if necessary, check with your doctor. Pregnant women and the elderly should also consult their doctor before using a hot tub. 8. Dot not use the hot tub if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs as your judgment will be impaired and you could become unconscious and drown. 9. No smoking is permitted in or around the tub. 10. People with cuts or external infections should not use the tub. 11. Windy conditions from the south are not ideal conditions to use the hot tub as the cover and lifter extension could lift and break away with the wind. Would not recommend hot tub use if windy conditions exist. All that being said...Enjoy! Excursion Ideas! 🌄 Seneca Lake is calling!
