The fall season is the perfect time to enjoy a hot tub out on your deck. It’s not too cold, but it also isn’t uncomfortably hot. Hot tubs, unlike swimming pools, can be used year-round. But how do you even go about shopping for a hot tub? What features and benefits should you be looking for? Our list should lead you in the right direction.
- Always measure the space where you think the hot tub will be installed. Proper dimensions are the most important step in making sure you choose a hot tub that will actually fit.
- Speak with your home insurance agent. There are rules and regulations regarding how close your hot tub should be to your house.
- Research jets and pumps. The more jets you have, the more powerful your pumps will need to be.
- The cover you choose for your hot tub should be very thick and sturdy. Many come with locks.
- Not only should you closely monitor your hot tub’s filtration system, but you should also consider buying two. This way you can easily rotate when one needs to be cleaned.
