Whoneedsavacation Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Our new spa is sitting on the patio under a ramada and the big tree beside it drops seed pods like little leaves continuosly all year long. We are planning to tack some window screen up over the Ramada to keep the debris away from the tub. However, it ocurred to me that we will no doubt still use a blower in the vicinity from time to time, and there is quite a lot of buildup to clear now (less than a week after the spa was delivered). To cut to the chase, is there any reason to think that a few dried leaves/seed pods and dust etc. finding their way under the tub would cause a problem? I doubt it sits so tightly on the slab that nothing will get in there. Are the "works" sufficiently well isolated that this is no worry? (I did order a good book on spas and hot tubs, once it arrives maybe I won't have so many questions!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Most spas have vents in the equipment area. You want to make sure those are clear of debris, but other than tracking in you some leaves and such into your water you should be fine. What type of tub do you have?
