Hot Tub Pillows FAQ

How long do hot tub pillows last?

Hot tub pillows typically last 3 to 5 years. Since spa pillows soak in hot tub water and are exposed to chemicals, cleaning them thoroughly and correctly is essential. This can help extend their lifespan, but failure to do so can cause them to degrade faster.

How do you clean hot tub pillows?

Pillows, speaker sound systems, and spa lighting all elevate your hot tub experience. However, unlike speakers or lights, pillows should be regularly cleaned for sanitary and health reasons. 

We suggest cleaning your spa pillows once a week by wiping them with a soft cloth or sponge. Use a mild soap mixed with water to remove any dirt or stains. If you notice mildew, dilute detergent and bleach with water and scrub the hot tub headrest with your cloth. Don’t forget to clean the area around the pillow as well.

When you change the hot tub water, perform a deeper clean for brighter pillows and to further guard against stains. If you plan on not using your hot tub for a while, remove the headrests and store them in a dry area away from direct sunlight. 

The pillows don’t need much maintenance compared to other parts of your hot tub, but they should be regularly cleaned for sanitary reasons and increased enjoyment.

Is it easy to replace a hot tub headrest?

Yes, replacing a hot tub headrest is easy. Whether you have a Dimension One, Balboa, or Jacuzzi, hot tub replacement pillows are straightforward to install and remove. 

1. First, ensure you have the right pillow length and size for your hot tub. 
2. Don’t select replacement pillows based on appearance alone, as there are many options that look the same. Contact us to confirm pillow compatibility with your spa’s make and model.
3. When you’re ready to replace the headset, pull the bottom part out until it unsnaps completely from the hot tub shell.

How can you prevent mildew on hot tub pillows?
