Don’t keep it a secret

Hot tub safety continued

Before you begin

• Do not use any electrical equipment in the vicinity and please do not sit, stand or lie on the lid. The lids are not very strong and a replacement will be charged to you.

• Please respect your neighbours – no loud music, shouting or screaming outside.

Due to the noise of the bubbles you won’t realise how loud you are!

• Do not place candles on the hot tub as candle wax can damage the filter system.

• You should limit your dips to a maximum of 15 minutes at a time – extended use can cause dizziness.

• Only children over the age of 14 can use the hot tub. Children must be supervised in the area at all times.

• Please ensure you have showered before and after using the hot tub. This will remove oils, creams, lotions, make up, tans etc, which will seriously affect he water quality if not removed. Please also use the toilet before entering the hot tub.

• It is also important you take care when entering or exiting the hot tub. Please use the bath mat provided and please be aware decking can become slippery when wet. Please replace the lid after use.

• Please do not immerse your head or swallow the water – this can increase the risk of infection. Number of users Models and types can vary in capacity so if you have any queries please contact Guest Services. Do not exceed the maximum number of people than the hot tub is designed for.

Cleaning practices Don’t add anything – bubble bath, shampoo, gels, soaps, oils, salts etc. These can seriously affect the water quality and filter system and will result in a cleaning charge of up to £100.

Alcohol

• Do not use whilst under the influence of alcohol.

• Please don’t rest any glasses on or near the hot tub – broken glass is almost invisible under water. Any broken glass found in the vicinity will result in the hot tub being drained to check for glass.

Medical Complaints Please consult your GP before using if you are pregnant, suffering from any form of heart disease, circulation problems or any serious illnesses.

Please avoid any drugs that may cause drowsiness, sleepiness or raise/lower your blood pressure. You shouldn’t use the hot tub after any heavy meals too.
