Coleman Saluspa Inflatable Hot Tub Draining Cleaning & Chemical Maintenance

[@battletested4827]

Finally someone showed how to use the chemical dispenser!!

[@Rose258V]

This is really true! A lot of videos don’t show this

[@Reno-wh6wj]

My chemicals don't seem to be coming out of the dispenser. Been over a week and the tabs are still inside and the spa reads 0 bromine.

[@tastefullys]

@@Reno-wh6wjsame. Do you know a fix to this?

[@davedaltonworship]

Absolute best video. Thank you for taking time to make this. We just got the Saluspa brand of this exact hot tub (from Costco) and this is by far more helpful than the manual. Thank you!

[@LYLAHome20]

Hope you & your family enjoy your tub as much as we have! Happy new year!

[@shanew7361]

Just picked up mine today from Costco too. Set mine up in my basement on top of foam exercise tiles. Makes it super comfy and helps retain heat!

Thanks for the video, I had some problems with my hot gob and while waiting to resolve the issue, the water got really murky, I needed a to clean it and your video was a great help. I scooped all the water out and cleaned it in a few hours. Thanks again it was easy De

[@davidcorbett6510]

Stumbled across this video from a search and have to say this is one of the best I have seen on any topic. To the point, clearly shows each step and actual parts, pieces, products used. Music compliments instead of overpowers. One suggestion- on a couple of occasions the text in screen flashed to quick to read without rewinding a couple of times to capture all. Just an awesome video and I will be checking out the rest of your channel to see other items I may be able to learn tips from. Thank You for this great video.

Do you not use sodium brominated granuals to establish a bromine bank when you fill the tub???

[@kevinlynch5390]

Thank you!

[@wendyholman8368]

Great video. One question....how do I drain water out of the bubble lid? I think somehow over time some water got inside and I can't figure out how to drain it out. Any ideas?

[@NWImages]

When we added bromine to ours to start the the levels were wayyy high for chlorine and bromine. Any reason why or how to bring it down? We added two tablets

[@frankcole3563]

How do we blow out the air jets in the bottom if clogged

Sump pump. Will drain it in minutes. If you want it faster. Great video though for using items around the house.

I need new o rings, tub is leaking and can’t find them I bought a pack the big one fit but the smaller ones they sent were way to thick

[@michaeltroycardillo3445]

How much do you throw in there?? I used Bromine and my girlfriend broke out… I’m scared to try it again.

[@mommyofangels]

Great video… thinking about getting a Coleman hot tub… was afraid it was going to be hard to upkeep and keep clean.. this video shows me that I can do it… Question: how much did it increase your electricity bill if at all?

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi Michelle! Thanks for watching :) I just recently took the hot tub out of storage and set it back up so I can’t remember exactly how much the electricity bill went up, but it was approximately $30-$45

[@shanew7361]

What's the very top grey plastic inside piece for?

[@silverandblackentertainment]

Thanks for the video! Looks like your hot tub has a cover for the bottom tub?? Like a slip in case of some sort? I like that, did it come with it?

[@kesiac123]

Hello~! Love the video! My PH is really high and I'm bad at math lol I purchased the PH down for pool; but having a hard time figuring out the dosage for our 177 gal (same as yours) Coleman. The bag says 6oz per 10gals... do you just eye ball it?

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi!! Thanks for watching! I would put the recommended oz per your PH down depending on what brand you have. We have the Clorox pool ph down and it’s suggests 6oz per 10k gallons. So try 1oz of ph down then test and do it in 1/2 oz increments if more is needed. Luckily our tap water is balanced so we haven’t had to use PH down yet.

[@jondink8933]

what kind of brush are you using???

[@williamdalexander4858]

Was that just a regular outlet it's plugged into? I just bought that same tub, and the only outlet is the one outside of my garage

[@diandratorres3232]

Hi does anyone know where I can find a replacement for the part that connects the chemical dispenser to the hot tub?

[@yaself23]

How much of each product do you use?

[@Rachel-po9xn]

Hi! Thank you so much for posting these hot tub videos. My fiancé and I just purchased our first one and we are in love with it! The only thing is, we used it for the first time yesterday and it seem to lose heat while we were in it, not by a whole lot but it went from 104 to 99, didn’t feel cold but I was wondering if you experience the temperature go down while you were in the tub and if you have any tips on how to keep the warmth while you’re in it?

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi!! Yes, our tub does the same when we set it at 104 and it drops to 99. I think it makes sense since the lid is off and the outer temperature affects it. So it is prob normal! Even with the temp drop it still feels nice, right?

[@Rachel-po9xn]

@@LYLAHome20 definitely!!! Thank you! Also, how often do y’all shock the water with the Clorox shock shown in the video?

[@LYLAHome20]

@@Rachel-po9xn Hi!! We shock the water after each use. You’ll see that the water is cloudy after you get out. We put the suggested amount of shock in, run the jets for 30 min with the lid of then cover once done.

[@juliav5814]

Doesn’t the dirty water stay inside the heating unit? How would you go about cleaning that?

How much ph up would you use? I have a 250 gallon inflatable hot tub

Have one the hot water never goes past 92° if it's hot out cold day 87°

[@dawidbudz1572]

hey, my hot tub has cloudy water now. should i drain it right now or use bromine to clean it? thanks

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi! Our water is usually cloudy after use with bromine in the chemical dispenser at all times. After each use, shock the water and that should take care of it. The water would clear up after we shock it. No need to change the water unless it’s been over a month of use? I left a link in the description on the shock we use. Let me know if that works!

[@xXlyricaljewelXx]

Great video! Does the bottom inflate or is it flat?

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi! Thanks for watching! The bottom doesn’t inflate, but it’s flat and cushy like. Thick yoga mat.

[@MrCopycat73]

What does the hours heating button mean? We keep the heat on all the time.

[@johnnymeza3544]

Why didn’t you use the drain plug?

[@lynnieMac1906]

I bought the same hot tub used. The top grey part inside (air return I think) leaks. I can't find any help or videos on how to fix this. Also does that attach to the filter? I don't see any movement on my filter. Should I feel it or see that it is working? Thannks!!

[@tesswebb5168]

Never emptied mine, oi vacuum, supershock or clarifier

[@amandasailsbury1878]

So the Bromine takes place of the chlorine?

[@alissaowens2497]

Ours didn’t come w a chemical dispenser, our LED light is where yours is. We have intex brand of spa

[@LYLAHome20]

Maybe you could get an individual floating chemical dispenser.

[@gamingjason2778]

To clean the filter use filter cleaner you can get it at a pool store😊😊

[@letsgohawaii8084]

Do I need to add the brand shock plus on top if the tablets? It says 4-1 pool shock. Step #4

[@LYLAHome20]

Hello! After using the hot tub, I would dip my PH strip in to see how much shock I would need to add and usually when the water gets cloudy. The tablets are bromine are always in my dispenser so that it keeps the water sanitized. Hope this makes sense :)

[@ralphfirley3882]

Why didn't you just hook up the hose to the drain valve?

[@milothechihuahuabrunetandmommy]

I have a question what do you think is better cloren or bromine I am a new hot tub owner I got an intex inflatable hot tub pure spa plus I no I was on here before but I need to refresh my memory I will be setting it up for the first time in the spring I could use all the advice you can give me thank you so much have a beautiful day God bless you always

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi! Chlorine is easier to find and cheaper in price. I chose bromine because I read that it’s a little easier on the skin since our family has sensitive skin. It’s a little pricier, but since it’s a smaller hot tub, it’s your choice! Can’t go wrong with either one

[@Scotty_B123]

I can’t find bromine anywhere! Even Amazon is out of stock unless you pay a fortune for it.

[@alissaowens2497]

How long does one filter last? Is dependent upon how many times the hot tub has been used ?

[@LYLAHome20]

After each use we would take the filter out and rinse it off with a hose. We milked our first filter for a month, but it depends on how often you use the tub.

[@NaudanX]

Does yours leak air? I had to return a new one because it seemed to be deflating, let me know if you have videos on inflation because I'm hoping I'm not missing something dumb

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi! First year we had 0 air leaks, but after we stored for the winter and started using it again there’s an air leak in the tub. We just pump it every now and then. So this is year 2.

[@maryannB1968]

Mine doesn't drain fast.

[@jake4056]

Hey, where did you get the cover that goes around the side of your Coleman tub. It looks like it matches the top. I’ve got the green one and it’s the worst color green so I’d like to cover it. Thanks for any assistance!!

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi Jake! The cover came with the tub! I’m not sure if you can buy it separately. I got the Coleman Cali saluspa, so each line has it’s own different cover. Thanks for watching!

[@anthonyblack7460]

Mine came with the tub also.. maybe make sure you didn’t pack it away or they didn’t ship it to you… it’s a two piece cover.

[@nosirrahm]

@@anthonyblack7460 not all of them have a cover. Those green ones didn’t.

[@lneg4587]

Hello! and THANKS for sharing this video. Questions: When do you add the "Clorox Shock Xtra Blue formula", do you add it directly to the water when it's bubbling; how much do you add? Second, do you have to keep it connected all the time, or do you only connect it when you are going to use the hot tub to heat up? Thank you!

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi! We typically add the shock after each use or whenever the water appears cloudy. Adding while the nets are on helps the sanitation and oxidation process. I usually leave the lid off and allow the jets to run for 30 minutes. I throw about a cap full of the shock. I keep it connected and plugged in 24/7 because we use it frequently. Thanks for watching!

[@TheDwilliams1000]

@@LYLAHome20 Thanks I just bought that same shock and bromine.

[@mizzcunningham7]

Did you use regular pool shock ?

[@LYLAHome20]

Yes, we use a pool and spa shock after use of the water is cloudy. The link to the specific one used is in the description box. Let me know if you have any other questions!

[@traviswilliamsohio]

I can't seem to get it to drain. Bought a new hose, attatched to very bottom plug and the middle plug and nothing. If I detach the hose the water flows out fast and steady, but not a drip with the hose hooked up. Don't really have a downward area for good flow, but there are no kinks and def not going upward anywhere.

[@LYLAHome20]

It drains pretty slow… so we just had our kids scoop the water out with buckets 😁

[@joshsanchez6389]

How often do u drain and clean

[@LYLAHome20]

Hi Josh, The first few times we’d change it monthly because we were using the tub daily. But we’ve been using it less due to all the smoke in the air from the fires so we haven’t been using it. I’d say it’s Been at least 2 months since we’ve changed the water. But we check on the filter every few days to give it a rinse off.

[@lindatrionfo2288]

We just set ours up can we use bromine instead of chlorine ? Or do u use both?

[@LYLAHome20]

We only use bromine! It’s easier on our skin.

[@mikeserna8542]

Anybody find little pcs of white paper in the water? I think it's coming from the filter.

[@LYLAHome20]

I noticed little white specks but I was assuming they’re little bits from the bromine dispenser.

[@dmpslc]

We noticed similar but attributed it to adhesive residue from the giant warning sticker that was stuck to the floor of the spa when we set it up. It eventually stopped.

[@Scotty_B123]

I can’t find bromine anywhere! Even Amazon is out of stock unless you pay a fortune for it.

[@LYLAHome20]

Sorry! It’s in stock near me in CA. I hope you’re able to get some bromine soon!!

How often do you clean it. We use our tub 2-3 times a day🤣 We had it for two weeks and had to clean it. We never wear any creams or oils and are careful.

[@LYLAHome20]

I clean the filter after each use and we also full on shower before hopping in. But we give it a full clean every 3-4weeks 🙂

[@lovinglife2945]

Do you have a mat under there ?

Hi! We’ve been using it without a mat underneath! I noticed a lot of bromine residue on my pavement from water splashing out during use.

[@letsherptothederp]

Sheeesh you drain every 3-4 weeks? That’s overkill

[@bomphur]

seems a real design flaw not to have an accessible drain.

[@anaismisami]

We have the Saluspa Miami which looks identical to this model except it's black and doesn't have the outer cover layer that this one has. Ours actually does have a drain that a garden hose can attach right onto, and I believe this one has it too, but this channel may not have realized it's there due to it being hidden by that outer cover.

[@bomphur]

@@anaismisami You're right. Only after draining by siphon method did I discover the drain.
