This is why you should buy a hot tub today!

Purchasing a hot tub is a large investment; you want to make sure you get the right hot tub that meets your needs, and family’s budget.

Here are some of the reasons a hot tub is a good investment:
·      Relaxation
·      Year Round Use
·      Requires less space
·      A great way to spend time with the family
·      Easy to maintain


Relaxation- A hot tub will provide warm circulating water to soothe away your tired, achy and sore muscles after a long day of work, gardening or sport activities to name a few.  Hot tubs can be a great stress reliever.  They also boost circulation and accelerate the body’s natural healing process.  

A warm hot soak in your hot tub before bed will also help relax your body, mind and aid in better sleep.

The hot water from a hot tub dilates blood vessels to increase blood flow to sore or damaged tissues. By being buoyant (floating) in a hot tub your body weight is reduced 90%, by relieving pressure on joints and muscles.

After a soak in your hot tub you will be refreshed, relaxed and ready to enjoy the day.

 
Year Round Use – One of the greatest advantages of a hot tub, is that you can use it year round.  Enjoy an evening under the stars on a cool evening or soothe away sore muscles after shoveling snow on a cold winters day as you watch the snow falling.

You can also turn down the temperature on your hot tub below 98.6 degrees and have a cool tub with circulating water in the heat of the summer.

Requires less space – Another advantage to a hot tub is it requires less space as well as maintenance, compared to a swimming pool, especially one with a salt water system installed.   If your hot tub is a portable hot tub you can also move it from one location to another. Moving to a new home you would be able to take your spa with you, for example.



A Great Way to Spend Time with your Family - With today’s busy schedules, families sometimes don’t even have time to eat dinner together.  However, families with hot tubs will find that spending time together in a hot tub brings them closer and your kids will love hanging out with you and this also allows more time for spouses to spend quality time together instead of sitting on a couch and watching TV!



Easy to Maintain – Taking care of a hot tub is not that hard.  In order to keep your hot tub in perfect condition all you need to do is a few easy maintenance tasks on a regular basis, this will increase your enjoyment and add years to the life of your hot tub.
·      Sanitation
·      Clean Filters
·      Drain, Clean and Refill
·      Hot Tub Cover
Sanitation:  Your hot tub should be sanitized properly once a week with granular chlorine or Bromine. Simply check your test strips periodically to make sure your levels are where they need to be.

Clean Filters: To maintain the life of your filters you should clean them once a month depending on usage or change them out when you drain your hot tub.
Start by spraying them with a garden hose, and go in between each pleat to remove debris, you can also soak your filter in a bucket of warm water and bleach or use a spa filter cleaner sold at your local hot tub store.

Drain, Clean and Refill - Your hot tub water will not stay clean forever even with chemicals added.  When your hot tub starts to get cloudy and the water doesn’t feel right, its time to drain, clean and refill your hot tub.
It is recommended to drain your hot tub every 3 months depending on usage.

Hot Tub Covers - Hot tub covers are essential for maintaining heat.  They keep the heat in and debris out.  You can protect the life of your spa cover by cleaning it with a spa cover protectant to help it with stand the elements.
