Not all hot tubs are made the same way, and you'll want to get one that's right for your home and usage needs. When you browse through the different selections at a hot tub store, here are a few things that you'll want to consider so that you can find your ideal hot tub faster without wasting too much time looking at other hot tubs that don't meet your standards.

The Jets

The jets are responsible for emitting power streams of water to make your hot tub's water bubble and produce therapeutic effects. Even though you might think that you'll benefit the most from having many jets in the hot tub, it's more important to think about the jets' quality and how much power each jet produces. The location of each jet could also factor into your decision, and this may be especially true if you want the jets to target certain areas of your body to bring you the most relief. The hot tub store can give you more details on each hot tub's jet features to make your selection less complicated.

Number of Seats

If you only plan to use the hot tub yourself or with one other person, a hot tub with two seats will work well. A medium-sized hot tub with four to six seats can be a good fit if you like sitting in a hot tub with a small group of people. If you frequently host larger gatherings, you may need a hot tub that has seven or more seats.

Portable vs In-ground

You may want to move your hot tub to other locations on your property occasionally, and a portable hot tub can be repositioned and set up easily. If you have a fixed location for your hot tub, an in-ground model may be the way to go. There is also the option of having either style of hot tub custom-built to your liking if you choose. 

Optional Add-ons

You may find a hot tub that can be equipped with certain features to make your time soaking in the water even more enjoyable. When you purchase your hot tub, you may also consider getting accessories, such as:

  • Cushioned booster seats
  • Headrests
  • Beverage holders
  • Multicolored lights
  • Music speakers
  • Rails
  • A hot tub cover

If you're ready to experience the good life, a hot tub can be the perfect addition to your home. A hot tub store representative can give you more details on what to look for so that you'll have an easier time finding the hot tub of your dreams.
