According to legend, Prince Bladud was cured of leprosy after bathing in the hot, steamy Bath waters and founded the City of Bath in 863 BC.
In AD 43 the Romans developed ‘Aquae Sulis’ in Bath as a sanctuary of rest and relaxation for Roman soldiers and citizens. In AD 70, the Romans built a reservoir around Bath Hot Springs including a sophisticated series of baths and a temple dedicated to the goddess Sulis Minerva.
In 1088, Bishop of Bath and Wells John of Villula, a physician, purchased from the King the royal property in Bath and rebuilt the baths: “Through hidden pipes, Bath Hot Springs supplied waters, heated not by human skill or art, from deep in the bowels of the earth to a reservoir in the midst of arched chambers. From all over England sick people came to wash away their infirmities in the healing waters.”
In recent years Bath has become one of the most popular attractions in England. Renovated in 2006, Thermae Bath Spa includes two large thermal water pools including the iconic rooftop pool, plus a large swimming pool in the basement. There’s also a wellness suite with steam rooms, a sauna and other relaxing and rejuvenating experiences.

This 8 lb jug of Bath Hot Springs mineral concentrates provides concentrates for hot tubs up to 320 gallons capacity. If your hot tub’s water capacity is more than 320 gallons, you have the option of purchasing more concentrate.
To calculate the exact amount of concentrates for your size of hot tub, multiply the number of gallons in your hot tub by .025 lbs per gallon (the percentage of minerals in Bath Hot Springs ). This total will be the exact number of pounds of concentrate you need to put in your hot tub to replicate the Bath Hot Springs water immersion experience. This box includes an 8 ounce measuring cup for this purpose.
After you have measured out the correct amount of concentrate (as per formula above) for your hot tub, make sure the temperature of the water is above 85 degrees so that the concentrates will dissolve (and stay dissolved) in your water. Once you have inserted the concentrates in your hot tub, your pool pump will evenly circulate the hot spring minerals. To sanitize the water, keep doing what you normally do including adding chorine or other chemicals you use. The concentrates last for up to six months, when you need to drain the water, clean the hot tub and fill the hot tub with more water. Then you add the concentrates for the same hot springs or a different hot springs.
Please note that WelSprings Hot Pools concentrates do not get trapped by your hot tub filter as these concentrates are in solution.
