Start 2026 Right - Give Your Hot Tub a New Year MOT

As we ring in 2026, now is the perfect time to give your hot tub the care and attention it deserves. A hot tub “MOT” from Spafix can set you up for a stress-free, cosy year of soaking and relaxation, without unexpected breakdowns or water problems.

Why a New Year MOT Makes Sense

Reset after winter wear – Cold weather, frequent use, and low temperatures can take their toll on pumps, heaters, filters, and covers.
Avoid surprises later – Early inspection helps catch small issues before they become costly breakdowns in spring or summer.
Maintain water quality – A professional MOT includes filter cleaning, water balancing checks, and sanitiser review to keep your spa clean and safe.
Peace of mind for the year ahead – With busy schedules and unpredictable weather, starting the year knowing your hot tub is in top shape is invaluable.

What the Spafix Hot Tub MOT Includes

When you book a Hot Tub MOT with Spafix, our UK-wide engineers will:

Inspect pumps, heaters, and electronics for wear or damage
Clean or replace filters as needed
Test and adjust water chemistry and sanitiser levels
Check the hot tub shell, cover, jets, and seals for leaks or wear
Run a full diagnostics check to spot any fault codes or performance issues
Advise on energy-saving settings and maintenance routines for 2026

Who Should Consider a 2026 MOT

Hot tub owners who use their spa regularly. Frequent use — especially over winter — wears down components faster.
Owners of tubs more than 2 years old. Even well-maintained spas benefit from a check-up to catch slow-developing issues.
New hot tub buyers from 2025. A first MOT helps establish a baseline and ensures water balance and operation are correct after installation.
Owners of second-hand or pre-loved hot tubs. A full MOT helps ensure everything is working safely and efficiently, gives you a clear health check of the spa, and identifies any hidden issues from previous ownership.

Benefits of Booking Early in January

Better availability for engineer visits. January is often quieter than peak spring/summer, making it easier to schedule.
Avoid winter water problems before they worsen. Cold snaps, double-digit temperature fluctuations, or freezing risks are easier to handle proactively.
Start 2026 with confidence. A serviced, clean, fully functional hot tub is ready whenever you want to relax, without surprise issues.

Final Thought

A small investment in a Hot Tub MOT now can save you time, money, and headaches later. Whether you’re a frequent user or occasionally unwind in your spa, starting 2026 with a professionally serviced hot tub ensures comfort, reliability, and peace of mind.
