Hot tubs are fast becoming accepted as an affordable and accessible antidote in the home to the stresses of modern day living. Here, the top ten reasons for investing in a hot tub are detailed:

  1. Well-being: Those who have experienced the joys of owning their own hot tub say they have never felt better. There is nothing like that sense of total well being, which overwhelms you when you plunge into a hot tub full of warm water, bubbling massaging waters.
  2. Aid to good health: There is a wealth of clinically proven evidence that suggests that the massaging warm waters can reduce blood pressure, improve circulation, ease aching muscles and joint inflammation. There is evidence that the massaging waters ca help reduce cellulite.
  3. Economical: Costs are around 75p a day for heating and chemicals for a four-person hot tub - it's a small price to pay for unashamed luxury.
  4. Flexibility: They are suitable for indoor or outdoor use. Spas can be permanently fixed and plumbed indoors but today there is a much wider perception of the hot tub as an outdoor product, and there is a huge choice of portable products for placing in your garden, on your patio or balcony or in your conservatory.
  5. All-weather: Hot tubs are not weather-dependent - take Finland and Sweden, for instance, famous for their cold climates, where ownership is almost 90%, because they have for long appreciated that there's nothing quite like the sheer delight of sitting in a hot tub under the stars in the now.
  6. Great for entertaining: Hot tubs quickly establish themselves as a real focal point for family entertaining - some can accommodate up to eight people, and they're a great place to relax and talk, winding down with the family at the end of the day. They are simply great fun for everyone.
  7. Versatility: In recent years hot tubs have grown in sophistication. With features such as modular jets where you can change the direction of the massage at will, hot seats, fibre-optic lighting with programmable colour sequencing, all-round remote control sound and even a television and video player - they can be the ultimate in high tech luxury.
  8. Easy Maintenance: With maintenance amounting to about five minutes a day, and slightly longer once a week there is very little upkeep required. The essential key to happy hot tub is checking the PH levels of the water using a simple test kit, and correcting water balance, if, and when, necessary.
  9. top.gifAffordable: With prices starting at £2,500, many at around £5,500 plus, and of course many more in the higher price brackets, there is a hoot tub to suit every pocket. It's not dissimilar to purchasing a family holiday.
  10. Enclosures: An outdoor hot tub will come complete with a cover, but if you want an enclosed environment there are several options - traditional chalet-style wooden spa houses or gazebos, which look great in the garden.
