Spa rows beside the pool
Yes, a pool log can include a hot tub row when you want the spa beside the main pool record. That keeps the day, the venue, and the readings in one place. See features and get the app for how Poolsheet handles separate entries.
Why a spa row is separate
Spa readings are not the same as pool readings because the vessel, use pattern, and code checks can differ. Poolsheet keeps the spa on its own line so your hot tub chemical log stays distinct from the pool log. For background, visit guides or the pool log sheet.
What the app will not claim
Poolsheet does not clear a spa, judge water safety, or replace your local procedures. It is a logging tool for recording what you measured and where you measured it. If you need setup details, start at home and read the spa guide in the app notes.
Printable sheet
There is a printable log option for teams that want paper beside the phone record. It gives you a simple way to track the spa row and the pool row together without mixing them. The model code note on the page has the windows, and the spa guide covers when to use them.
