Soak Up the Sun: Get Your Hot Tub Summer-Ready with Luso Spas

Jay Bowers • May 27, 2025

From crystal-clear water to garden party vibes, here’s how to make the most of your spa this summer – the right way.

With longer days and warmer nights on the horizon, now’s the perfect time to prep your hot tub for summer. Whether you’re planning BBQs, late-night soaks, or just a bit of outdoor indulgence, Luso Spas is here to help you make a splash this season. Let’s get your hot tub summer-ready!


☀️ Give Your Hot Tub a Seasonal Refresh

After spring showers and months of minimal use, your hot tub could probably do with a bit of a spruce-up.


  • Drain & Refill: Out with the old water, in with the clean! This removes any lingering residue.
  • Clean the Shell: Use a spa-safe cleaner to wipe down the interior.
  • Check Filters: Rinse and deep-clean or replace if needed.


🌡️ Adjust the Temperature

With hotter weather, you don’t need your spa running at full heat. A slightly cooler soak can be just as relaxing.


  • Ideal Summer Temp: Around 35–37°C for cooling comfort.
  • Energy Savings: Lower temps help reduce running costs during hot spells.


🧴 Stock Up on Summer Essentials

Don’t wait until the day of the BBQ to realise you’re out of chlorine!


  • Water Treatment Supplies: Sanitisers, pH balancers, test strips – top up now.
  • Spa Fragrances: Think tropical scents for that holiday feel.
  • Floating Drink Holders: Because what’s a soak without a summer cocktail?



🎉 Create a Summer Spa Vibe


Turn your garden into a spa-worthy retreat with a few seasonal upgrades.

  • Mood Lighting: Solar lights, string bulbs or LED accessories.
  • Decking or Patio Area: Add sun loungers, towels, or even a gazebo.
  • Music Setup: Bluetooth speakers for laid-back playlists or party tunes.


👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Make It a Social Soak


Your hot tub isn't just for relaxing – it’s the perfect centrepiece for summer fun.


  • Host a Garden Spa Party: Invite friends or family for a soak and a sizzle on the BBQ.
  • Kids’ Play Day: Supervise younger ones while they enjoy spa-style water play.
  • Evening Chillouts: Sunset soaks under the stars – enough said.


🧽 Don’t Forget Maintenance


With more frequent use, your spa will need a little extra attention.

  • Quick Daily Checks: Test water levels and clarity.
  • Weekly Filter Rinses: Especially after garden parties or heavy use.
  • Cover It Up: Keep the cover on when not in use to block debris and retain heat.
