It was on again/off again this week, when the tub was refilled. Unfortunately most of the new jets were leaking when the jacuzzi was filled. Our service provider found that several of the gaskets were bad and had to be replaced. That work has been completed; the tub has been refilled, the chemicals have been balanced and the tub is back in regular service.
At the most recent Board Meeting an Owner and member of the Health Club had a great question. They’ve noticed that the jacuzzi is emptied and refilled several times a week – why is that?
The quick answer is…well…with all due respect, it’s because people are gross!
Jacuzzis need to be emptied and refilled relatively often to help prevent the buildup of bacteria, harmful chemicals and other contaminants that can cause skin and respiratory illnesses. Especially tubs like ours that have many users. The high water temp lower water volumes can make it prone to rapid contamination.
This replacement was planned as a part of the 2025/2026 budget, approved by the Board earlier this year. A contractor was hired and parts were ordered in the spring – we’ve been awaiting their arrival. Now that they’re in, they’ve scheduled the installation of the new Jacuzzi jets for Tuesday, August 12th, from 9AM to 5PM.
In order to accommodate this work, the Jacuzzi will be closed and unavailable to use during for the day.
We apologize to our members for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding while this important cleaning is done.
