Hot tubs, spas and Jacuzzis are a real luxury and allow you to relax and rejuvenate in style and comfort. There are a number of factors that you should take into consideration however before you buy your hot tub, spa or Jacuzzi.

Do You Want a In-Ground or Portable Spa?

The first factor you should take into consideration is whether you want your spa built into the ground or portable. Portable spas are more flexible and can be placed wherever you choose, whereas built-in spas are not as flexible but they do add to the value of your home.

What Size Spa Do You Want?

Spas also vary in size from small spas that accommodate two people through to large ones that can accommodate a group. The size of spa you choose may depend on where you are planning to put it and how much space you have available.

Some spas come with built-in CD players, radios and other features. Before buying your spa you need to decide whether you want these additional features or whether they would simply be wasted.

Check the Water Heater

Another factor to consider when choosing your spa, Jacuzzi or hot tub is the water heater. Spa heaters can either be electric or gas, portable spas tend to use electric heaters, while in-ground spas may run on gas. Think about which is the best option for you.

Your Budget

This may be the first thing that many people think about as the cost of installation may not be cheap and then you will still have additional costs such as the electricity or gas used to run the spa. In general in-ground spas will be more expensive as they require a lot more work.
