Hello World! Welcome Friends! If you have decided to get a hot tub and turn your backyard into an oasis of peace and relaxation, choosing a tub model will be bittersweet. With so many models of tubs on the market, choosing the right one can be quite confusing. That is why you should know what you want and how to fit it into your yard.
The budget you plan to buy a hot tub is an essential item. Bear in mind that outside Jacuzzi prices can vary from a few hundred to a few tens of thousands of dollars. So you need to know what your limit is. That can help you narrow down the choice. If you didn’t plan to spend much, think about budget-friendly models from hottubreviews.co.uk, or building a DIY hot tub.
Think of Basic Features
Before buying a hot tub, you need to know the exact location where you will place it. Will that be a porch, a yard, or will you make a particular wellness area? That way, you will know what to base your quest on.
Suppose you want a full experience of an outdoor spa. In that case, you will place the hot tub in the yard, surrounded by greenery for complete peace. Think of a wooden outdoor Jacuzzi that will best blend in with nature and scenery. If you want to place the hot tub on your porch, you can buy metal or even inflatable models. These are portable, so you can easily place them wherever you want.
Size is the next factor to consider. The dimensions of a Jacuzzi don’t have to be proportional to the number of seats. Some models are designed for sitting, while others provide additional space to lie in them. You choose between single, family, or something larger than standard family size (for pool parties).
The outdoor Jacuzzi dimensions must match the location where you want to install it, but don’t forget to leave enough space for access. Here you can check the requirements for installing a hot tub in your backyard.
Functionality
This item usually means the number of jets and filtration systems. Most models available on the market have one or two jets, which is quite enough for pleasant hydrotherapy. Some more expensive hot tubs have several different massage options, but this item often adds to the price.
The pool pump is what you need to pay attention to. It has to be quiet and work evenly. It’s advisable to buy outdoor tubs in stores, not online. That way, you can try out the Jacuzzi to see if it runs smoothly. Any unusual sounds indicate potential malfunctions, so don’t get fooled that the hot tub should sound like a locomotive.
Additional Features
When buying basic models of hot tubs, you know which essentials to look for. But if you want to bring outdoor soaking into a whole new level, you can choose some advanced Jacuzzi models. They include some fancy add-ons.
For example, some models have a pre-installed sound system or lighting. It is advisable to check the sound system on the spot. Ask how it’s protected from the water and moisture, and whether it has a warranty.
The lighting item is significant if you plan to use the hot tub at night, so you want a slightly more romantic atmosphere than that created by backyard lamps. In other situations, it is just an unnecessary expense.
Know What You Pay For
Some sellers often use the ignorance of buyers and cheat them on these ‘add-ons.’ You must be well-informed on what is in the basic offer. Covers and basic products for jacuzzi maintenance, for example, shouldn’t be charged extra. The same goes for installing a hot tub as well as for on-spot delivery.
Buy only from dealers who will bring your hot tub, not in front of the gate, but to the desired location inside your yard. Any reputable seller provides a professional bathtub installation, which is included in the price you paid. Avoid vendors where these items and costs are not transparent.
After a hard day, relaxing in a warm bath is a real blessing. If you are a nature lover and have a beautifully landscaped yard or a beautiful view of the surroundings, you will surely enjoy soaking in your personal Jacuzzi.
