Spa Duck – Absorbent sponge
Do you know that shiny film that sometimes floats on the water of your spa? These are leftover traces of body lotion, sunscreen, skin oils and cosmetics that hitch a ride into your spa. The Spa Duck is a cute little duck made of absorbent polyurethane that happily bobs around in your spa, soaking up all that oily grime before it settles. It doesn't quack, but it does keep your water surprisingly cleaner.
At Pool.shop, this is one of those small aids that will surprise you with how much difference they make. Simply place it in the water and the sponge does the rest.
Why a floating sponge makes the difference
Oils and lotions always gather at the water surface. If you leave them there, they stick to the edges of your spa and end up heading towards the filter, where they cause blockages and reduced flow. The Spa Duck catches this dirt while it's still floating around, so your filter stays clean for longer and your edges no longer get that annoying greasy ring.
When should you put it in?
The easiest option is to simply let the duck float permanently in the spa, so it keeps cleaning continuously. Have you noticed that a lot of people have used the spa, or that there's visibly more grease on the water? Then it works especially hard at those moments. Right after applying lotion or sunscreen is also the moment when it really proves its worth.
Maintenance and use
When the sponge becomes saturated, simply rinse it out under lukewarm water and squeeze it out thoroughly. You can then place it back in the water. This means a single duck lasts surprisingly long. With its compact size of 4 x 9 x 11 cm, it takes up hardly any space and fits in any spa – as it can be used universally.
Good to know
The Spa Duck is made of polyurethane, comes in white and is supplied with a 2-year warranty. A small, affordable addition that keeps your spa water clearer and relieves your filter – exactly the kind of clever detail that you'll enjoy in the long run.
