Ten Ways To Decide The Right Hot Tub For You




There are some features of hot tubs that should be considered by you when you are shopping for your spa. Here are ten ways discussed below that will ensure that your portable hot tubs for home are perfect buys.

Consider the understructure and the shell of the soft sided hot tubs

There should be no bubbles, cracks or any flaw on the shell of the hot tub. It should be resistant to UV rays and any kind of abrupt changes in temperature. The four person tubs should be more thoroughly checked for proper support as well as insulation.

Cabinetry

If the portable hot tubs have a wood type cabinet made for it self then it can be considered quite well. At the same time the cabinet should involve less effort for its maintenance. Synthetic materials involve less care and maintenance than wooden stuffs.

Heaters

The heaters that are employed in hot tubs can range between 1.5 KW to 11.5 KW in terms of power delivery. Those heaters that can be considered best wrap the water pipes to keep the water from getting heated directly. But they also consume a lot of energy.

Pump and filters

The cartridge type filters are commonly used which require hosing off after every 3 to 4 weeks. Consider both the location of spa and the filter for the convenience of cleaning. The noise range of the pumps should be checked so that it does not become a bothering element later.

Insulation

The base below the understructure can ensure a good insulation. Rigid foam in the forms of solid layer can best serve this purpose. This has the advantage of noise reduction but then it makes the maintenance difficult. Layered insulation is the best option thus.

Seating

You have to check the number of seats and find the depth or leg rooms of your portable hot tubs. You must make sure that the control is possible when seated inside the tub and go for a soak test before the purchase.

Jets

The jets can vary in number, from a single jet to as many as 160 jets are possible in a hot tub. And they can be of different types as well. Check out how they can be programmed once inside the tub.

Other amenities

There are numerous options that are available within your budget when it comes to amenities. Aerobic workout equipment, lighting, massage pillows and chairs and many more can be your options. So find out the best buy.

Cover

Do not make the mistake of buying a hot tub without the cover. A cover lifter is also recommended by experts.

Ask about the blowers

Particularly ask about the blower motors as there are many salesmen who can classify them as simple electric motors or pumps.

The above ten points can be very beneficial for your buy.
