SwimRight Pools, serving Scottsdale, answer, “where should you put the hot tub?” question
Now that summer is turning into autumn, you may be thinking about adding a hot tub to your backyard or to your swimming pool. You may also be considering upgrading or updating your current hot tub. One of the questions you will need to ask your hot tub service professional from SwimRight Pools is, “where should you put the hot tub?” It may not be as easy a question to answer as you may imagine.
Winters in Arizona are temperate but there are days when it’s too chilly to jump into the swimming pool. That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the water, especially if you have a hot tub or spa. If you’re getting a hot tub or spa this year, talk with us about the style, the accessories, and more importantly, where you should put the hot tub.
One of the main questions you will consider, after you’ve chosen the type and style is placement. Here are tips about choosing the ideal placement for your hot tub or spa:
Where should you put the hot tub
- Proximity to utility and water hook ups when choosing a location.
- Closeness to neighbors, this is important if you want to spend quiet, romantic evenings in the hot tub.
- Traffic flow in the yard
- Ease of access
- Imagine you’re in the hot tub…take a look around. How is the view? Do you like what you see? Imagine placing the hot tub in a corner of the yard and all you’re looking at is…fence or brick wall…not very aesthetically pleasing, right?
- Ask for a bird’s eye view of your yard with the potential hot tub locations.
- Location impacts landscaping and the overall price of the hot tub — especially if water lines or electricity needs to be run.
- What foundation will you place the hot tub on? You will want something that allows you to walk on stone or wood, rather than grass — which can turn muddy.
Even though a hot tub or spa will not take up as much yard space as your pool it should still be given the same amount of consideration when it comes to placement and landscaping
