Hot Tub Drain and Refill Record

A free printable hot tub drain and refill record — date, reason, filter and shell condition at each drain, so the pattern is visible over the years.

First page of the Hot Tub Drain and Refill Record — See when a tub was actually last drained instead of guessing, and catch a tub that is being drained more often than it should need to be.

What this sheet is for

See when a tub was actually last drained instead of guessing, and catch a tub that is being drained more often than it should need to be.

Who it is for

Hot tub and spa owners, and hosts running a tub at a holiday let.

How to use it

  1. Record the tub volume and filter part number once, so reordering is easy.
  2. Log every drain with the date and the reason — scheduled, cloudy water, foam, odour.
  3. Note the shell and filter condition each time; scale and staining build slowly.
  4. Write in the next due date as soon as you refill, from your manufacturer's guidance.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: Every drain and refill for a hot tub or spa — the date, the reason, what the filter and shell looked like, and when the next one falls due.

Your manufacturer's interval, tracked here. How often a tub needs draining depends on its volume, how hard it is used and your manufacturer's own guidance — follow that, and use this sheet to see the pattern over time. Water chemistry between drains belongs on the Hot Tub Water Care Log.

Write-on lines: Tub / property · Tub volume · Filter part no.

Questions

How is this different from the Hot Tub Water Care Log?

That sheet tracks chemistry between drains — sanitiser, pH, alkalinity. This one is only about the drain-and-refill cycle itself: when it happened, why, and what the shell and filter looked like.
