HSG282
HSG282 and your duties
If paying guests use your hot tub, the HSE’s guidance, HSG282, applies. As the owner or operator, you’re the duty holder, and you stay the duty holder whoever looks after the tub.
We help with the practical side: servicing, cleaning, checking the tub is run and dosed correctly, and a written report if you ask for one. That supports your duties, but servicing isn’t a guarantee of legal compliance, so take your own advice on your position.
Our plain-English HSG282 guide explains more, and there’s a printable sheet you can leave out for guests: hot tub rules for guests.
