Spa Soaking Guidelines
1. Persons with heart disease, diabetes, blood pressure
or circulatory abnormalities, a serious illness, or
pregnant women should not enter a spa without prior
consultation with their doctor.
2. People with skin, ear, genital or other body
infections, open sores, or wounds should not use the
spa because of the possibility of spreading infection.
3. Before entering, look at the water in your spa. If
there is cloudiness, foaming, or if a strong chlorine
smell is present, the water needs treatment. Properly
maintained water will greatly reduce potential skin
rash (pseudomonas). Ask your Authorized Coleman®
Spas Dealer for guidance.
4. Shower with soap and water before and after using
the spa. Showering before use removes many common
skin bacteria, perspiration, lotions, deodorants, creams,
etc. that may reduce the effectiveness of the sanitizer
and lessen the ability of the filter to work efficiently.
Showering after use will help reduce skin irritation
that may result from contact with spa chemicals.
5. Enter the spa slowly and cautiously. Be careful of
your footing, and allow your body to gradually adjust
to the water temperature. Exit slowly to accommodate
relaxed leg muscles and possible lightheadedness.
6. Soaking for too long may cause some users to feel
nauseous, dizzy, or lightheaded. If you wish to soak in
high temperature water (104°F or 40°C), leave the spa
after 15 minutes, shower, cool down and then return
for another brief stay. In lower temperatures (e.g.
98.6°F—normal body temperature) most people can
comfortably and safely soak for longer periods at one
sitting. If you have any questions about what’s right
for you, your family, or other guests, consult your
doctor.
7. Be sure you check the water temperature before
entering, and while using the spa.
8. Never use the spa while under the influence of
alcohol.
9. Consult your doctor about potential harmful effects
of using drugs or medications while hot water soaking.
10. Never use the spa when you are alone.
11. Never allow children or elderly adults to use the
spa unsupervised.
