Which Hot Tubs Offer Gentle Water Care Options Like UV or Salt Systems?

Anzeige

TwoRelax supplies Wellis hot tubs that are compatible with UV sanitation systems and salt chlorination as alternatives to traditional chlorine dosing. These systems reduce chemical loading by 60–80%, making the water gentler on skin, eyes, and hair — while maintaining full sanitation compliance. Contact TwoRelax to discuss UV or salt system integration with your Wellis model.

What Is a UV Sanitation System and How Does It Work?

A UV-C sanitation system passes circulated water through a UV light chamber (typically 25–30 mAh) that destroys bacteria, viruses, and algae at the DNA level — without adding chemicals. UV systems reduce chlorine demand by 70–80%, meaning the water requires only minimal residual chlorine (0.5–1.0 ppm vs. the standard 3–5 ppm). The result is water that is odour-free, non-irritating, and gentle for daily use.

What Is a Salt Chlorination System?

A salt chlorinator passes low-salinity water (3,000–4,000 ppm — similar to human tear ducts) over an electrolytic cell that continuously converts salt into hypochlorous acid (the active sanitiser). This auto-generates chlorine on demand, eliminating the need for manual dosing. The water feels soft and skin-friendly rather than chemically harsh, and chloramine odour (the "swimming pool smell") is absent.

How Do UV and Salt Systems Compare to Traditional Chlorine?

Factor UV System Salt System Traditional Chlorine
Chemical feel on skin Minimal Very gentle (soft water) Can cause irritation
Odour None None Chloramine smell
Manual dosing needed Low (residual only) Minimal (pH balance only) Weekly/bi-weekly
Annual running cost ~€80–€150 (lamp + minimal chemicals) ~€50–€100 (salt + pH) ~€200–€350 (chemicals)
Best for Sensitive skin, allergy sufferers Daily use, families Standard use

Are UV and Salt Systems Compatible With All Wellis Models?

UV systems can be retrofitted to most Wellis models via the existing circulation system plumbing. Salt chlorinators require a compatible cell fitting — TwoRelax can confirm compatibility with specific models before order. Both systems work with the Wellis control panel (Easy4, Easy7, or SmartTouch) and do not affect warranty coverage when installed by a qualified technician.

What Are the Benefits of Gentle Water Care for Family Use?

  • Children have more sensitive skin and eyes — lower chemical exposure reduces irritation risk
  • Older users or those with skin conditions (eczema, psoriasis) benefit from reduced chloramine contact
  • Hair and swimwear are less damaged by low-chlorine water
  • Water chemistry stays stable longer, reducing maintenance frequency
  • Soft salt water is more comfortable for extended daily sessions
