The trend of ’staying in’ is great news as having home spas is becoming increasingly popular as people are looking for ways to spend time at home rather than spend money going out. This may seem like a double negative, however once people have their own private spa they will not only be happier to spend time at home they will also reap the therapeutic benefits home spas and tubs have to offer.
As with many other trends the sceptics will no doubt say that it is a passing phase which will not be as cost effective as people may think and yet if you look back in history tubs and thermal spas have been used for thousands of years as a way to relax either alone or with friends. The ancient Romans are renowned for the amount of time they spent in either private or public baths relaxing in water and enjoying the health benefits as well as using communal tubs to plot and scheme!
You may not need a spa or tub to plot and scheme, however they remain a wonderful way to relax and as with most things the more popular they become the lower the price drops, as such having your own spa or hot tub is no longer an item which only the wealthy are able to own.
So what are the key features you should look for when purchasing a spa or hot tub?
1. Firstly it may be beneficial to do some research to find out exactly what they are and how they work! They are usually installed outside in people’s gardens or on patios or decking. They need to placed in a stable position which is capable of withstanding the weight of the spa when filled with water, along with the average weight of the number of people it is designed to hold.
2. Secondly look for a spa or hot tub which is manufactured with non-porous materials along with making comparisons on the shell warranties offered. You should then give consideration to the upkeep and durability of the spa enclosures if you are trying to decide whether to have wood or plastic. You should also be looking insulation propertys as some spas and tubs are more energy efficient than others, those with full foam insulation may be more energy efficient but they may also be expensive to repair should they be damaged.
3. Obviously size matters! It stands to reason that the larger the spa the more expensive it will be, therefore decide how many people you want to share your spa time with as this will have a huge affect on the price!
4. Depending on the size you opt for the difference in the number of jets will also influence the cost. Look out for tubs which have an efficient jet system which does not rely on large overpowered motors.
5. Lighting is another aspect which needs to be considered. Some of the latest hot tubs are designed with built in underwater lighting which enables the tub to be used at any time of the day or night.
The best option is to make comparisons and speak with retailers before making your final choice.
