Why not splash out for summer?
As the warmer weather approaches and our thoughts turn to making the most of our gardens, Mid Kent Living has been dipping its
toes into the water to ask a few questions about owning a hot tub . . .
Can a hot tub be used all year round? Absolutely! Many people purchase their own spas after experiencing using one at a ski resort. Most spas are deep enough to ensure that the shoulders are submerged in the hot water at all times - very important when sitting gazing at the stars on a cold winter's night.
Are spas good for you? Hydrotherapy has been a part of civilised life for thousands of years. The benefits of using hydrotherapy fall into two categories - physical and mental. Published research has also shown that soaking for 30 minutes a day in a hot tub can reduce blood glucose levels.
How much does a hot tub cost to run? This figure varies greatly between manufacturers. When looking for a hot tub you should check on the type of insulation and how it is applied. This will give you a good idea of the cost to run a hot tub.
There are a lot of variables that including climate, bather load (how often the spa is used) and filtration cycles, but on the whole you should budget for between 50p and 80p per day.
How do I get the hot tub into my rear garden
if I do not have a garden access ? If there is no other access, maybe through a neighbour’s or by removing a fence panel and having a crane lift. Costing between £200 and £500 this, should not be an obstacle against having the hot tub experience.
Will my spa relieve stress? The relief of stress and stress related conditions are one of the main reasons why busy people buy spas. Relaxing in warm water and being gently massaged relieves anxiety and relaxes tense and aching muscles. As the body and mind relax, blood pressure falls and tension-induced headaches fade.
