✅ Jacuzzi & Swimming Pool FAQs – Johannesburg & Gauteng

What is the difference between a jacuzzi and a swimming pool?

A jacuzzi (hot tub) is heated and designed for relaxation and hydrotherapy with massage jets. A swimming pool is larger, usually cooler, and used for exercise, leisure, and entertainment.

How often should I clean my pool or jacuzzi?

• Swimming Pools: Weekly brushing, skimming, and chemical balancing

• Jacuzzis: Test water 2–3 times per week, deep clean and refill every 3–4 months

Regular maintenance keeps water safe, prevents algae, and protects your equipment.

How long should I run my pool pump daily?

Most pools in Johannesburg & Gauteng require the pump to run 6–10 hours per day, depending on pool size and water temperature.

Do I need a heated pool in Gauteng?

Heating is optional, but many homeowners install solar pool heating or heat pumps to extend the swimming season. Johannesburg winters can be cool, so heating offers year-round comfort.

What temperature should my jacuzzi and pool be?

• Swimming Pool: 26–30°C

• Jacuzzi: 36–40°C

Which is better — saltwater pool or chlorine pool?

Saltwater pools are softer on skin, lower-maintenance and eco-friendly, while chlorine pools have a lower initial cost.
Gauteng homeowners increasingly choose saltwater systems for comfort and convenience.

How often should I service my pool pump or jacuzzi system?

Schedule professional servicing every 6 months to avoid breakdowns and expensive repairs.

How often should I change jacuzzi water?

Every 3–4 months, depending on usage and chemical levels.
