Hey hot tub owners, when was the last time you drained your hot tub? If you've got cloudy water, scum lines, or a weird smell, you've got bacteria and contaminants built up inside your hot tub pipes and it can't be killed by normal hot tub chemicals. The only way is to flush it out by purging your pipes every three to four months. Flush your pipes with a hot tub plumbing cleaner, and drain your water. That'll remove any buildup and keep your water sanitized and clear.
