Additional Services

The Service Provider can provide additional services, such as repairs or upgrades, upon request. These services will be quoted separately and require the Client’s approval before commencement.

Chemicals

The Service Provider cannot guarantee the safety and effectiveness of chemicals purchased elsewhere. We strongly recommend purchasing your products from Wheatley Creek Services for these reasons.

Prohibition on Chemical Addition by Guests

The Client agrees to ensure and shall inform all guests that under no circumstances are guests permitted to add chemicals or any foreign substances to the hot tub. This rule is imperative for maintaining the hot tub’s safety, balance, and proper functioning of the hot tub. Non-compliance with this rule may result in additional cleaning or repair fees and could lead to termination of the Agreement. The Service Provider reserves the right to inspect the hot tub for compliance and to take necessary actions to correct any imbalances or damages caused by unauthorized chemical additions.
