What should I look for in a luxury hot tub?

You should expect the very best experience from your luxury hot tub—from the craftsmanship of the product itself to the high-performance hydrotherapy it can deliver.

The incredible features that luxury hot tub models offer—from build and design to specialty amenities—can take your hydrotherapy to the next level. Here are some things to look for when you are seeking a luxury hot tub:

•Credible, reliable brand or manufacturer.

If you want the best hot tub, you’ll want to purchase one from a reputable longstanding brand that is known for quality and innovation. The Jacuzzi® brand, for example, has been developing the most innovative wellness products for more than six decades. The company was founded with the mission to bring pain-relieving hydromassage through the power of hot, bubbly water to homes around the world. Designed specifically to restore, balance, and heighten the joys and benefits of hydromassage, Jacuzzi® luxury hot tubs, among other high-end wellness products, are enjoyed in more than 100 countries around the world.

•One-of-a-kind innovations.

Your luxury hot tub should provide you with the highest level of hydrotherapy. It should also offer the latest innovations and advancements that increase the relaxation and rejuvenation of your hydromassage. A luxury hot tub can also make hot tub ownership simple and straightforward.

When shopping for a luxury hot tub, look for these special one-of-a-kind innovations that will set your hot tub apart from the others. For example, the Jacuzzi® brand remains a leader in its industry because the team continues to research and develop the latest advancements, bringing you the best wellness experience possible.

Two such examples include the Jacuzzi® SmartTub® remote monitoring system and Infrared and Red Light therapy, which are available in, and compatible with, select luxury Jacuzzi® Hot Tub and Swim Spa models.

What is the Jacuzzi® SmartTub® System?

The Jacuzzi® SmartTub® System is a patented, industry-first remote monitoring system that allows you to manage and maintain your hot tub through your phone, smart device, and wearables as well as Siri®, Alexa®, and Google Assistant®, from anywhere in the world.* This system provides you with convenience, control, peace of mind, and energy-saving capabilities.

For example, you can :

-Track energy usage reports, pair the system with smart devices, and enjoy new features that are automatically updated.

-Adjust temperature, jets, and lights, as well as lock down your hot tub to prevent unwanted usage, whether you are home or away.

-Receive automatic alerts, and have automatic alerts sent to your spa dealer, if your hot tub needs attention, for power outages, freezing, or overheating.

-Receive maintenance reminders to help make your life easier and keep your spa running at top performance for many years.

-Optimize energy savings with industry-first Smart Heat Mode, which monitors, schedules, and adjusts your energy usage. This level of automation reduces standby power by 25%.

What is Infrared and Red Light therapy?

The powerful combination of Infrared and Red Light therapy was recently, and exclusively, introduced to select luxury Jacuzzi® Hot Tub models. This therapy is not new to the brand. It has been used in Jacuzzi® Sauna applications for some time. Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs are the only spas on the market that feature Infrared and Red Light therapy, which offers unmatched hydrotherapy through the rejuvenating power of Infrared and the regenerative qualities of Red Light working together deep beneath your skin’s surface to relieve pain, improve your range of motion, and help you reach a state of blissful mindfulness.

High-performing equipment.

Your luxury hot tub should make indulging in your hydrotherapy easy and hassle-free. That begins with excellent equipment such as water management systems. You will want your hot tub to have the very best equipment that operates at a very high level. Ultimately, this results in easy and enjoyable hot tub ownership.

•Specialty jets and seating options.

Your hot tub experience is greatly elevated when you are fully comfortable and relaxed. Seating options are important so you can have a choice as to how you experience your hydrotherapy. Open seating allows you to be in a more upright position as you soak, perfect for socializing and entertaining. On the other hand, lounge seating allows you to be in a more reclined position during your hydrotherapy, so you can indulge in peaceful head-to-toe relaxation. As you soak in comfort, the placement and power of the jets will also impact your experience.

A luxury hot tub will be able to deliver a second-to-none hydromassage through the use of multiple jets that are specially designed to target and soothe specific parts of your body. Luxury Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs, for example, offer a variety of specialty PowerPro® Jets that allow you to create a specialized hydromassage that is exactly to your liking.

Design and style elements.

Your luxury hot tub haven should be a place of both relaxation and beauty. A stylish hot tub with beautiful lighting and soothing waterfalls can enhance your spa sanctuary and your soak.

Other important features and aspects that should be encompassed in your luxury hot tub include:

-Energy-efficiency

-Durable materials

-Elegant interior and exterior lighting

-Sound systems

-Excellent hot tub cover

-Convenient and easy-to-use touch panels

How do I choose the best luxury hot tub for me?

There are plenty of luxury hot tub options. You can determine the best one for you by making a list of the features and amenities that you most want to experience once you become a hot tub owner. If you need a little help narrowing down your choices, start by asking yourself the following questions:

-Where do I plan to have my hot tub placed and how much space do I have?

-How many people will be using my hot tub?

-Do I want my hot tub for quiet relaxation, socialization, or both?

-What type of seating do I want in my hot tub—open, lounge, or a combination of both?

Where can I find the best luxury hot tubs for sale near me?

When shopping for outdoor luxury hot tubs, look for hot tub dealers near you that sell top-notch brands, including Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs, and others that were mentioned previously. A visit to your local spa showroom is an important, and fun, part of your journey to becoming a hot tub owner. When shopping, you can peruse luxury hot tubs in a variety of shapes and styles. You can also browse color choices and see the various seating options available in different models.

Before making your final decision, it’s a good idea to perform a wet test on the luxury hot tub that you like best. A wet test allows you to get into the hot tub when it is filled and operating. You can try out the seats, experience the jets, and even receive a brief tutorial from your hot tub dealer about how to operate your hot tub. Finally, a visit to your hot tub dealer gives you the opportunity to ask your hot tub dealer any lingering questions you have about a specific model or about the ins and outs of hot tub ownership.
