Although it may appear that cost for ownership of a hot tub can soar wildly without reason. We can assure you that nothing is further from the truth. Plan well now and save big later. Don't let outside forces make a bad decision for your new hot tub. Hot tubs are not something that are replaced very often, at least we hope not. So spend wisely once or foolishly often! |
Variables Out of Your Control Electricity. The cost of electricity is a factor that no one has control over. Each power company charges different rates for their electricity use. Every region has a different operating cost due to weather factors and regional energy cost. So someone in California will has a completely different cost of electricity than say someone in Georgia. Outside Temperature. If installing your spa outdoors, another factor out of your control is the air temperature. If you live in a cooler area, your spa will have to work harder to maintain your desired water temperature. Keep this in mind as well; how well is it insulated from the elements. We often hear of neighbors having completely different cost of operation. This is due to the difference in spa construction Spending a little more now on your hot tub or portable spa can save you hundreds on your power bill in the future. Pay now or pay more later. What type of insulation from the elements does your portable hot tub have? How many pumps, how often will your hot tub be used and is it 110V or 220V? These are all important questions. |
