A Sparkling Tub, Every Time!

There’s nothing better than a warm and relaxing bath, surrounding by candles, soft music, and the light hum of the massaging jets, right? But, imagine coming home after a hard day at work only to find that your tub is looking less than glamorous! While jetted tubs can be a joy to indulge in, they can be prone to mold and bacteria – especially within the bath’s jet streams.  Fortunately they aren’t hard to clean. Most tubs come with cleaning instructions, but if you can’t seem to find them, follow these simple steps!

• Fill the tub until the jets are covered about 2-3 inches with warm water.
• Add 2 tablespoons of dish soap and 1 cup of white vinegar.
• Run the jets for about 15 minutes.
• Drain the tub and clean the surface with your normal bath cleaner.
• Refill the tub and run the jets for about 5 more minutes.
• Drain the tub. 

Remember, every make and model is different, so if you are worried, be sure to check the tub’s manual for specific instructions or give Steam Sauna Depot a call and we can assist you with any cleaning alterations that may need to be taken. You’ll be on your way to a sparkling clean tub in no time!

Health Benefits of a Bath

After a long day, many people often find themselves unwinding and kicking back in a nice hot bath. The deep muscle relaxation that is associated with a hot bath is known to help reduce cramps, tension, headaches, and general soreness, but a hot bath can also do wonders for your stress levels. After working at a desk all day, your body is often tight, sore, and exhausted. Did you know that there are other benefits that come with a hot relaxing bath?

• A hot enough bath can help induce sweat, which helps the body remove toxins.
• A hot bath can increase circulation of the lymph system.
• A hot bath can improve your immune system and help fight off infection and colds.
• By adding oils like eucalyptus, you can benefit from many different health benefits that come from the use of these often holistically used oils.
• Hot baths increase blood circulation throughout the body.

It’s no secret that a hot bath is a great way to relax, but with all of the other health benefits, it seems like an easy health booster that you can do every day. If you’re looking for the best selection of bathtubs to help transform your bathroom into your mecca of relaxation, look no further than SteamSaunaDepot.com. From freestanding bathtubs to claw foot bathtubs, we have the bath tubs you’ll love.

The Power of Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy has been recognized for hundreds, if not thousands of years, as having profound healing effects. Perhaps mankind’s first medicine, the holistic practice of using essential oils to cure or curb illness has been a popular practice for many who follow a more natural path. These oils can help stimulate the body, help the body relax and sleep better, and just overall help in de-stressing from a long day. Using essential oils in your steam shower can yield great health benefits to your body and mind. Below are a few popular oils that you might want to try in your steam sauna:

· Eucalyptus: Eucalyptus is known to help open air passageways and promote healthier respiratory function. Eucalyptus is also highly refreshing.
· Lavender: Sweet, floral, and overall great at soothing anxiety with its overall calming and restorative attributes.
· Vanilla: Not only a flavor, but the essence of vanilla has many benefits. Studies have shown that the smell of vanilla can help you calm down and mellow out.

At Steam Sauna Depot, we carry a large selection of essential oils that can be used with the SteamSpa Aromatherapy Oil Pump that we carry. If you don’t currently have an oil pump in your steam shower, consider the amazing relaxing benefits of using essential oils to help you relax from the stresses of everyday life.

The Beauty of Free Standing Bathtubs

Let’s face it! Life is stressful, and the need to have a way to take the pressures off of everyday life is incredibly important. This is the very reason that many Americans are cultivating ways to relax and de-stress from their own homes, by turning their ordinary bathrooms into spa-like getaways. There is a slew of amazing bathroom technologies sweeping the market, from steam showers to hydro-massage heads. Perhaps one of the most spa-inspired bathroom additions is the free-standing tub.

How to Keep Your Steam Room Clean

We’re always talking about the numerous benefits of having a steam bath in the home and the

positive impacts it can have on your health, but it’s important that your steam room is well-maintained so it can actually serve its purpose. Because the amount of humidity in a steam room is intense, mold and lime growth can often easily thrive in these conditions. However, by properly and regularly cleaning your steam room, you can enjoy the room without any problems.

· Of course the most important way to prevent mold build up is to have a properly installed steam room. If your room has proper ventilation, it will be must harder for mold to build up.
· Once per month, remove nozzles in the steam room and soak them in lime solution or vinegar. Lime solution works fast, but vinegar is less toxic and chemical free.
· If there is growth in the steam room, use a brush and clean away the growth. Make sure to spread a germ-free cleaner on the surface, and continue to scrub.
· If you have hard water, it’s important to clean your steam room more often, as deposits will occur more regularly.
· Always use a non-abrasive cleaner and scrub brush to avoid any permanent damage to the surfaces in your steam room.
· Regular cleaning is incredibly important for maintaining a relaxing and mold free steam room.
