Looking for Hot Tub Gazebos?
With Summer upon us and soaring temperatures expected, many of us are looking to find some relief from the sun without having to compromise enjoying our outdoor spaces. If you already own a hot tub, you may be wondering what options you have to create a wonderful space to sit back and enjoy without the risk of burning in the sunshine, or maybe you are thinking of adding some much-needed privacy to your home hot tub. If you are looking for a hot tub and are thinking of adding a roof or how to manage your space once you purchase one, then a gazebo would be a great option to consider.
No matter your reasons, be it shade, privacy or creating the perfect oasis or socialising space, this blog can give you the complete lowdown on hot tub gazebos.
What are Gazebos?
Not to be confused with its similar counterpart the pergola, a gazebo is a structure that provides complete shade and privacy with a roof or cover that protects you from the elements.
Usually made from wood, metal or in some cases, plastic, gazebos usually consist of four legs or stilts holding up a small roof. They can be purchased with or without panels or walls.
Types of Gazebos
Before purchasing a hot tub gazebo, you may want to think about what type of gazebo you would like.
Permanent gazebo: If you own your own home and you don’t mind making a permanent fixture to your outdoor space, then a permanent gazebo is the most popular choice. If you do not have a hot tub already or own a hot tub that is not already on a patio or decking area, then you can purchase permanent gazebos with a floor included.
If you are interested in a permanent gazebo to cover your hot tub and do not need a gazebo with a floor, then please be aware that they need to be built on a flat surface that doesn’t accumulate standing water. Patios and paving flags are a good option for this. (And also, for your hot tub!) As gazebos are most commonly made from wood, standing water around the legs and foundations can lead to the wood rotting away. Not what you want when they are supporting a roof over your head!
Wall mounted patio gazebo: If you are tight for space and/or places to anchor your gazebo, you may want to consider a wall mounted gazebo. As the name suggests, these are attached to the wall of your home and work more like an awning. These are ideal for patios with hot tubs that are situated close to your home.
Pop-up or portable gazebo: Portable gazebos are usually made from plastic and consist of four legs and a simple roof. Designed to be easily transported and erected almost anywhere, these can be a good option if you don’t want to make a permanent fixture to your garden, or occasionally enjoy the hot tub with the sun on your face!
Weather Resistant gazebo: These gazebos are made to withstand bad weather, so you know that you are getting durability if you buy from a reputable dealer such as us here at hot tubs & living.
Gazebo Design Ideas
Gazebos are surprisingly versatile and come in many styles. As well as finding the ideal hot tub gazebo that you love, you may want to consider how you want your overall outdoor space to look, or what ambience you are going for.
You may just want to get a simple gazebo that fits perfectly over your hot tub and provides shade on a sunny day, or maybe you want to turn your hot tub area into a relaxing outdoor living space, with a sofa and potted plants. If you are more interested in using your hot tub for socialising, then space for a barbeque or grill may be needed. All these design decisions affect the size of the gazebo you want and the style of gazebo you want. So, it is best to look around for ideas and think about what you want to get out of your hot tub space. This enables you to get the correct gazebo for your needs.
If privacy is a big concern for you, then buying a gazebo with side screens is a wonderful option. Some gazebos offer sliding screens, so you have privacy when you need it without compromising enjoyment of your outdoors.
Adding lighting and heaters to your gazebo means you can enjoy your hot tub through all seasons and creates a beautiful ambience. Fairy string lights are cheap to buy but can really brighten up gazebos. Consider hanging curtain lights for full illumination!
