IMPORTANT RENTAL
HOME POOL
INFORMATION. . .
Here on the Outer Banks pools are serviced on the day of your arrival and a
chemical check is performed mid week. There is a skimmer net
available to you for surface cleaning of debris. It is
normal to see sand in the pool, especially on windy days.
Sand in the pool does not alter the chemical balance.
However, if the entire pool is cloudy, and you cannot see
the main drain, you will not want to swim and you will need
to contact our maintenance department. For further
information or concerns, contact the Maintenance Department
at 252-261-3934, ext. 234.
Also remember, children
should NEVER be left to swim unattended.
IF YOUR RENTAL
HOME HAS A HOT
TUB. . .
CAUTION - Do not stay in hot tub over 30 minutes and always
have someone with you while in the tub. Overuse of the hot
tub will result in chemical imbalances and may be harmful to
one's health. Elderly persons and infants, persons with
medical problems such as heart conditions, low or high blood
pressure, pregnancy, obesity, circulatory system problems,
diabetes and other health conditions requiring medical care
and persons using medication should consult a physician
before using hot tub. Children should be supervised and
carefully watched at all times. Infants and children under
the age of 12 should not be using the hot tub. Hot water
immersion while under the influence of alcohol, drugs or
medicines may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility
of drowning. Do not use any electrical appliances, including
personal radios and telephones, while in hot tub! There is a
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION!!!
THE HOT TUB/SPA IS CLEANED AND SERVICED ON EACH CHANGEOVER
DAY - The chemicals used in the tub are activated by the
water temperature and the thermostat is set for normal use.
Allow several hours for the tub to reach desired
temperature. It takes about 10 hours to heat the water after
draining and to allow a good mix of the chemicals and 24
hours for the water to appear clear. It is a good idea not
to use the hot tub until 7 PM on your check-in day. Call us
on check-in day if spa has not been cleaned (261-3934).
THE HOT TUB/SPA IS CHECKED AGAIN AT MID-WEEK - If the tub is
excessively dirty and a mid-week cleaning is required, there
will be an additional $40 service charge.
TEMPERATURE SETTING - Water temperature should not exceed
104 degrees F. Lower water temperatures are recommended for
extended use (exceeding 10 - 15 minutes).
JET SETTINGS - Blowers and high jet settings should not be
used for more than 30 minutes. Excessive use can cause
overheating and permanent damage to the motor. Leave tub on
low jets, and replace cover when not in use.
HOT TUB COVER - Hot tub covers are fragile; please use care.
Please do not sit on hot tub cover as it may break! The
styrofoam inserts crack easily and are expensive to replace.
If cover is found damaged, your security deposit will be
held. Keeping the hot tub covered when not in use will help
keep the water warm
SHOWER BEFORE ENTERING SPA - Suntan lotions and sand (check
bathing suit) can clog the plumbing, cause malfunction,
upset the spa water balance, and is difficult to get out of
the tub.
PLEASE DO NOT OVER-CROWD THE TUB - Too many people in the
tub causes the water level to rise and overflow, resulting
in motor damage.
SLIPPERY SURFACES - Always enter and exit spa slowly.
Surfaces may be wet and slippery.
FLOATERS - It is important that all chemical floaters remain
in the hot tub in order to maintain the chemical balance.
This helps keep the water clean.
IF HOT TUB DOES NOT WORK - First check the circuit breaker
box. Turn the tub off, hit the reset button and wait for the
covered tub to reheat (6-8 hours). If the Hot Tub won't
heat, or jets won't start, you may need to reset the High
Limit Switch, located usually on a gray box under or around
the tub. There may be a GFI reset switch in the same area.
If so, reset it also. Wait for the tub to cool before
resetting. If resetting is required more than 2 times in a
half hour, please call the office for service (261-3934). DO
NOT continue to reset more than 2 times!
HOT TUB SERVICE CHARGE - Guests will be charged $35 hot tub
service if the tub only requires resetting. Damage to the
spa caused through misuse is the responsibility of the
Guest. |
