12 Things to Consider Before Purchase

Having reviewed the 19 best hot tubs we now look at some of the most important factors to consider before making a purchase decision. These internal and external factors can greatly impact the selection process of choosing the most suitable hot tub for your individual needs.

The Space or Area Available

Selecting the right sized hot tub for your needs can make life a lot simpler when it comes to set up and installation. A hot tub too big would not only be challenging to install but would also consume more energy and be harder to maintain eating up both time and money.

A hot tub too small would not be able to provide the level of comfort or relaxation desired. Thus, knowing the exact size of the hot tub you want can help narrow down the options and make selection a lot easier.

The Number of People

Knowing the number of people that would be using the hot tub on a general basis can further narrow down the options. Depending on the seating, size and space available different hot tubs have different capacities in terms of the amount of people it can hold.

A smaller 2 seater hot tub with a lounger might be more ideal for someone looking to share a hot tub with their significant other. On the other hand a contour style hot tub would hold more people and thus be better for parties and friends.

The Material

Ensuring that both the exterior and interior components are built from high quality durable material is essential to having a long-lasting durable hot tub. Hot tubs can be made from a variety of materials like fiberglass, resin and various grades of plastic.

Components such as the hydro jets and heating system are generally made from stainless steel in more premium models for added durability and reliability.

Features

Each hot tub reviewed has its own set of features and benefits. It all depends upon the customer and their budget. The more features in-built the greater the cost is likely to be. More premium models include features such as a music player, speakers, ozonators, insulator covers, LED lighting and much more.

Durability

Hot tubs are an expensive investment in most cases thus durability plays an essential role in determining the right one that is likely to last the longest period of time based on use. Certain hot tubs are more basic as they are built to last rather than offer a whole array of features.

The Price

Price often plays a major part in any buying decision. With so many choices available selecting hot tubs  that have all the right elements can then make the selection process easier as it would all come down to which one is offering the best deal.

The Brand

Opting for a well-renowned brand like the ones mentioned in this review can be quite advantageous for several reasons. A reputable brand name or manufacturer is likely to have much better customer service and technical support along with more favorable warranty terms than a non-reputable or newer brand.

Choosing a reputable and popular brand is also beneficial as spare parts are much easier to find in case things to go south. Also, if you ever decide that you don’t want a hot tub anymore for whatever reason having a known brand will help get a better resale value.

Warranty

What type of warranty is being offered by the manufacturer and on what terms?

Maintenance

No matter what hot tub you purchase without proper maintenance and upkeep you are not likely to get long lasting results. Replacing and cleaning out the filters and using chemicals as prescribed by the manufacturer is essential in keeping water clear and fresh all season round.

Water Pump

One of the most important components in any spa or hot tub is the water pump. The water pump must have enough power to provide the necessary pressure needed by the water jets but it can’t be too powerful otherwise it can easily crank up your home’s power bill.

Ensuring that you select a hot tub with energy efficient yet powerful pump will lead to better efficiency and greater savings in the long-run.

Hydrotherapy Experience

The fully adjustable water jets found in hot tubs or spas are what provide that relaxing experience. The greater the number of water jets the more vigorous and thorough is the massage experience.

If hydrotherapy is your main reason for purchasing a hot tub than it is highly recommended that you purchase one with as many adjustable hydro jets as possible to get the best messaging experience to help soothe your muscles and relieve stress.

Filtration & Sanitation

The better the in-built filtration system the easier it would be to maintain water clarity and hygiene. It is extremely important to carefully research what types of chemicals would work best on what type of hot tubs and such information is often available in the instruction manual.

Certain hot tubs also come with in-built ozonators that help with the sanitation of water but require cartridges to be changed periodically for continued performance.

Most hot tubs come with reusable filters that need to be cleaned out in the recommended time to get the most use out of the pump and jets. Not changing the filters can clog up the system running water hygiene and damaging internal and external components.

Types of Hot Tubs

Technological advancement has led to various different types of hot tubs that have been able to attract a much more diverse target market. There are broadly three types of hot tubs one can choose from and they range immensely in terms of price, durability and functionality.

Portable Hot Tubs

All the hot tubs reviewed in this guide are portable hot tubs that are generally constructed for easy set up and install. Portable hot tubs are self-contained and can easily be moved from one place to another as they often come with a simple plug and play setup.

Because they are mass manufactured and relatively easy to install portable hot tubs have become extremely popular. They cost a fraction of the cost as compared to permanent hot tub solutions while offering the same type of features and benefits.

Due to competition in this space portable hot tubs can be found in all kinds of shapes, sizes, colors, jets and other features so researching prior is always highly recommended.

Soft Hot Tubs

Also referred to as inflatable hot tubs, soft tubs are growing in popularity thanks to their unbeatable affordability and ease of setup. In recent time the concept of an inflatable spa has become a norm with more and more people opting for this simple and affordable solution.

Inflatable hot tubs are lightweight and easy to move around and are ideal if you are looking for a spa that you are able to take with you wherever you go. The ideal solution for people who like to travel or just want something inexpensive and easy to maintain to ease those aching muscles.

Soft hot tubs have not been featured on the list of the 19 best hot tubs simply because they are not as durable or as long-lasting as the ones mentioned on this list. Although inexpensive there are still several advancements that need to be made before a soft hot tub is able to make it on this list.

Permanent Hot Tubs

The most durable and most effective hot tubs to buy are permanent hot tubs but they can be extremely expensive and out of budget for many households. Permanent hot tubs require professional installation and it is almost the same as having a swimming pool in your home.

Permanent hot tubs require their own filtration system, chemicals and heating to maintain water clarity and hygiene. Once the unit is installed it cannot be moved and this is what makes this type of hot tub less popular in today’s market.

Households today like the ease and convenience of portable hot tubs as compared to permanent ones simply because they offer essentially the same features at a lower cost and with added convenience.

Health Benefits of Using a Hot Tub

They are various benefits of using a hot tub apart from the obvious relaxation and comfort. Medical studies have found that hot tubs provide a variety of health benefits. These are as follows:

Improves Blood Circulation

Heat from the water helps open up blood vessels that allows for better more efficient blood flow through the body. Highly recommended for people suffering from arthritis as the improved blood circulation helps ease pain from stiff joints.

Helps in Weight Loss

Just sitting in a hot tub for an hour can burn on average about 140 calories. This is the same as walking for 30 minutes. Although not intended for weight loss hot tubs do help in burning calories and lowering blood sugar levels.

Detox

Hot tubs are also an ideal way to get rid of toxins in your body through the process of sweating. High water temperature gets rid of sodium and other unwanted substances in your body and lowers stress on liver and kidneys.

Relieves Stress and Muscle Ache

One of the best feelings after a tiring stressful day is to climb into a hot tub and get a relaxing and thorough hydrotherapy experience. The hydro jets allow for a soothing massage that helps relieve pain in muscles and also alleviate stress.

Hot tubs are also highly recommended for individuals suffering from back pain as hydrotherapy truly helps in easing the pain when it comes to back problems or injuries.

Consult with a doctor for further information regarding the health benefits of hot tubs and whether one would be beneficial for you as certain medical conditions may be irritated by soaking in a spa for a period of time.
