How Do You Get Water Out of the Bottom of a Hot Tub?

2/6/2021

Realistically, hot tubs can take a lot of effort to care for properly, even if they are worth it.  One of those questions that often comes up with recent buyers of hot tubs is how to get the water out of the bottom of the hot tub itself.  There’s always that little bit left over and you’re looking at how to get it out since you can’t exactly just tip it over and manually drain it, right?  Here are some tips!

Real tips for getting the water out of the bottom of your hot tub
    These are some of the “tried and tested” approaches for getting the bottom of your hot tub emptied without getting stressed or frustrated in the process:

  • Get a manual spa vacuum: You can get electric and battery operated ones, too, but a manual option gives you great control over it.  By essentially creating a siphon, you’ll be able to manually suck the water up out of the spa bottom, even from those tiny little crevices that are otherwise impossible to reach.

  • Try a turkey baster: We know, it sounds ridiculous, but it really does work!  Since it’s intended for those tiny spaces that are hard to reach, make that work for you by enjoying a smaller tool with dedicating suction.  It’ll be really helpful and you can even repurpose it for the kitchen if you want to!

  • Dedicate a specific absorbent towel for the bottom of your spa: Okay, so we know you don’t like this thought, but it’s worth it.  For those last little parts that you just can’t get out, take an extremely absorbent towel and put it on a mop or broom handle (perhaps over a flat head attachment) and wipe it around.  You’ll want to make sure the towel is celan, of course, otherwise you'll literally smear dirt around.  It’s great for those last little details.

  • Let nature take its course: If you still have a few spots that you can’t or don’t want to reach, let nature do it for you through evaporation.  It’ll be great when you’re looking at the idea of airing it out, too.  Whie this won’t work if you have a lot of water left in the bottom, it can help keep your tub water-free when you’ve exhausted all other options.

 One of the cool features about all of these is that they’re pretty much all low-tech.  No gadgets or gizmos needed here, just simple, straight-forward tools to do all of the heavy lifting!  You have to admit that sticking a towel to the end of a stick is kind of funny, right?

    Sure, it’d be nice if hot tubs were designed to pour out every single last drop from every little crevice of your tub, but that’s not likely.  When you need manual help for the dregs at the bottom, any and all of these options are going to keep the manual labour to the minimum while still giving you effective draining tips for your hot tub, even if it’s irregularly shaped.
