The following “Safety Rules for Hot Tubs”
recommended by the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission should be observed when using the spa:
1.
Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104° F. [40°
C.]. A temperature of 100° F. [38° C.] is considered safe for a healthy
adult. Special caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged
immersion in hot water can induce hyperthermia.
2.
Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot tub
use can cause drowsiness which could lead to unconsciousness
and subsequently result in drowning.
3.
Pregnant women beware
! Soaking in water above 100° F.
[38° C.] can cause fetal damage during the first three months of
pregnancy (which may result in the birth of a brain-damaged or
deformed child). Pregnant women should stick to the 100° F. [38°
C.] maximum rule.
4.
Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should check the
water temperature with an accurate thermometer. Spa or hot tub
thermostats may err in regulating water temperatures.
5.
Persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory
problems, diabetes or blood pressure problems should obtain
their physician’s advice before using spas or hot tubs.
6.
Persons taking medication which induce drowsiness, such as
tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use
spas or hot tubs.
For units intended for use in other than single-family
dwellings, a clearly labeled emergency switch
shall be provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be readily
accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at least 5 feet [1.52
m] away, adjacent to, and within sight of the unit.
