Once your hot tub cover becomes waterlogged, it is no longer energy efficient.

Similarly, you may ask, can I leave my hot tub uncovered?Use your hot tub cover and/or floating blanket as much as possible. Leaving the hot tub uncovered results in the most water evaporation due to the high water temperature (warm water evaporates quickly). No cannonballs in the hot tub. Splashing and jumping causes water to splash out of the hot tub.One may also ask, what temperature should I keep my hot tub when not in use? A rule of thumb is that the temperature should be at least 5 degrees lower than when in use. It is necessary to keep it at lower temperatures when it’s not in use so that energy consumption isn’t too high. Considering this, how do I protect my hot tub cover? A good way to help prolong the life of your Hot Tub Cover is to keep it clean and conditioned with a product such as Ultrashine Vinyl & Leather Cleaner or Spa Boss Restore. Use of these products not only keeps your cover clean, they will also condition and add UV protection.Is it cheaper to leave a hot tub on all the time?Yes, you should leave your hot tub on all of the time. Hot tubs are designed to always be switched on and it’s more economical to keep the water hot than it is to heat it up from cold each time you want to use it.
