Hot tubs are great for relaxing in after a day's hard work. Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy the pleasure of bathing in your own hot tub in the privacy of your home or garden?. Hot tubs are a great investment as they are not only great entertainment for you and your family and friends but they can also add to the value of your property. If you are planning to buy a hot tub, please conduct proper research before finalising and purchasing a deal as buying, installing and maintaining a spa pool can be an expensive decision.

Don't go just by the look and the advertising of each hot tub model. It is recommendable to experience the feel of soaking in it.

Prices of hot tubs vary according to the brand name, model, size, material, etc. Most hot tubs can accommodate from two to six people but larger models are also available. You can buy hot tubs made from varied materials although most are acrylic and they can come in various colours, finishes and specifications. Some cheaper hot tubs obviously won't have some of the features of the high end models.

All hot tubs have the feature of jets which circulate the water around the tub and provide a massaging effect to different parts of the body especially the neck and back. This effect is called hydrotherapy and was first discovered by the ancient Greeks when they began to understand the properties of water therapy to assist in the relief of conditions such as jaundice and rheumatism.

Hot tubs are available from low end to high end models, prices can vary quite a bit so you have to assess your requirements and budget accordingly. The smallest size of hot tub can accommodate at least two people whereas the bigger ones can be used by up to twelve people altogether. You can also find other features like temperature control that can be adjusted by a remote handset even from the house if your hot tub is situated outside. Modern higher end models now can come with built-in electronic features like televisions, dvd players, speakers and coloured lighting to enhance your experience.
