Jacuzzi buyers check list

Some key considerations in selecting your new Jacuzzi.

Is the Jacuzzi made by a manufacturer who has been established for many decades as opposed to perhaps a cheap import.

Does the Hot Tub have the required number of adjustable jets to provide the proper and relaxing massage that I need?

Is the Jacuzzi comfortable with proper seating?

Is the size of the Hot Tub what I require and need for those who will use the Jacuzzi?

Will my dealer that I buy from deal with the installation and follow up service that I may need?

Is it properly designed with good efficient insulation?

Does it come with a child-proof safety cover?

Is it in my budget / price range?

Do I find the finish and colour appealing?

Is it made from Branded acylic like Lucite or is it a cheap imitation?

What warranty or guarantee does the product come with and is it backed by an internationally backed manufacturer?

How hot should the Hot Tub be?

Many folks set the thermostats on their Hot Tubs to body temperature (37 degrees C or 92.4 Degrees F) or just above. My own preference is 35 / 36 degrees C as I have to say that I find 37 degrees C to hot for me.

It is a fact that the closer to body temperature, then you can enjoy your Hot Tub experience for a lot longer.

As always people with a medical condition or Pregnant women and people with heart conditions or high blood pressure should, of course, consult a doctor before using a Hot Tub.

One needs to select a Hot Tub that is properly insulated.

Of course make sure that your Hot Tub comes with a Cover that provides proper insulation.

To keep very small children and pets like Cats and Dogs away it is best to have a cover that can be easily locked in place when the Hot Tub is not being used.

An average size Jacuzzi that is properly designed,engineered, constructed with a proper cover will lose only one or two degrees if turned off over night. Their cost can literally be less than a euro a day.

Draining and refilling a Hot Tub is usually required after about three months. After you have drained your Jacuzzi you should wipe the surface with a soft cloth or sponge.

A Hot Tub has its own filter and comes with its own filtration system. It is essential to remove and clean the filter on regular basis. If the shell is made of Lucite Acrylic or Aristech Hot Tub maintenance of the shell should be simple as wiping it down with a few drops of Tub Cleaner.

As always one must keep an eye on the quality of the water. Regular Testing and proper treatment of the water will keep it clean and attractive for use.
