Spas are susceptible to microbibial contamination due to recirculation of warm water. Problems largely arise from organism growth in biofilms. Routine maintenance may not prevent the formation of biofilms but good practice will minimise the associated risks. A named person should be responsible for maintenance. Correct levels of chlorine and bromine are essential for effective disinfection. Changing water and filter backwashing will inhibit biofilm development. Cleaning accessible areas will reduce established biofilm.
