3 Different Types of Spas
In Danish holiday homes, there are several different kinds of spa baths. Essentially, there are 3 distinct types:
Standard whirlpool
You have to fill a standard whirlpool with fresh water every time you wish to use it. The water has to exceed the side jets with app. 10 centimetres in order for the whirlpool to function.
Please fill the whirlpool with pure water at departure. In that way the service staff of Sol og Strand can clean the jets during their control visit.
Pre-filled whirlpool
A pre-filled whirlpool is always filled with water, which is heated to a temperature of 38 degrees centigrade.
It costs energy to heat up large quantities of water. You can reduce the energy consumption by drawing the thermo cover over the pre-filled whirlpool. By doing so you will reduce both the energy consumption and the evaporation of water.
Chlorine has been added to the water, which is continuously filtered and cleaned. The technique and electricity for a pre-filled whirlpool must never be disconnect, as it can result in serious deterioration of the water quality.
For health reasons, you should use the maximum the whirlpool 25 minutes at a time.
Wilderness Bath
A wilderness bath is an outdoor, round tub made of wood or a wood-like material, typically heated by a wood-burning stove. Please note that it can take 2-4 hours to heat the water in a wilderness bath.
The wilderness bath, which has become very popular in recent years, originates from North America and provides the genuine, rustic experience of being out in nature.
Broadly speaking, there are two different kinds of wilderness baths. Those where both the exterior and interior are made of wood, and those that have a wooden exterior but where the interior is made of either fiberglass or plastic fiber.
There are various rules for how a wilderness bath should be managed. If in doubt, please inquire at the local agency.
