Increase Your Comfort With the Right Hot Tub Design

Increase Your Comfort With the Right Hot Tub Design

Posted 11/18/2016

If your hot tub isn't comfortable, it will be impossible to fully enjoy your time there. That's why it's critical that you take the initiative to ensure that the hot tub you choose has features that will provide you and your guests with outstanding comfort.

From seats and footwells to features like ice buckets and drink holders, you'll want to consider how every aspect of the hot tub's design will contribute to or detract from your comfort.

In this blog post, you'll learn which design features can improve your comfort and create an incredible hot tub experience.

The Benefits of Ergonomic Design

Ergonomically designed seats are a surefire way to ensure hot tub comfort because they are designed to fit your body's shape. When checking a hot tub for comfort, ideally you'll want to ask the retailer for a "wet test" where you sit in the hot tub while it's full. If this isn't possible, sit in the dry tub and remember that if it isn't comfortable when it's empty, it won't be comfortable when it's full. Next, pay attention to whether you are comfortable sitting in the seats. If the hot tub has lounger seats, make sure they are non-floating and that you can easily recline with your feet on the floor. If you float out of your seat, it will be difficult to stay comfortable.

Be on the Lookout for Design Features

There are a variety of additional design features that can make or break your comfort experience. The first of these is multi-level seating. When you want a hot tub that can fit all body types, multi-level seating is a must. The second feature to pay attention to is the footwell. The footwell should be spacious, even if the hot tub is filled to capacity, so that no one feels cramped. Third, make sure that there are safety steps, especially if you'll be entertaining guests who may struggle to enter and exit the hot tub.

Don't Let the Minor Features Go Unnoticed

It's easy to overlook minor hot tub features like pillows, ice buckets, drink holders, and cabinet style, but these things are also important to creating the most comfortable experience possible. Pillows should be comfortable, removable, and easy to clean. Remember that a hot tub without a cabinet offers the easiest installation anywhere, while those with cabinets can create installation challenges.
