What is a Premium Hot Tub?

When looking to purchase a hot tub, you may be astonished by the number of types of hot tub that are currently available.

Over the last few years, the popularity of hot tubs has increased hugely and as such, the industry has grown and expanded into using modern technology to supply this increase in demand. 

Now more than ever, there are numerous and different types of hot tub, brands, companies, rental hot tub services and hot tub tech available to you as a consumer. This means that it can sometimes be both overwhelming and difficult to decide which hot tub is right for you.

Premium Hot Tubs

Premium hot tubs are generally regarded as, and what are traditionally known as, hard-shelled hot tubs. These are the hot tubs with a permanent base and have hard panels on the outside. They can be made using a variety of materials, but if you’re looking for a premium hot tub, then it is best to choose one made from acrylic, plastic, or wood. 

Premium hot tubs tend to be on the more expensive end of the hot tub market, simply because they are a permanent fixture in your garden or outdoor space. This requires installation on solid, level ground and access to power as well as higher maintenance costs. However, because premium hot tubs are permanent this is what makes them worth the higher price. You can have a range of features that aren’t available in portable hot tubs, and they can be used all year round.

• Massage: With a larger hot tub comes more choice about massage jets. With premium hot tubs, you have access to a better variety of jets and their placement than you do in other hot tub types. 

• Lighting and sound: Many Premium hot tub brands offer underwater lighting and sound systems that are integrated within the hot tub itself, so you don’t have to fork out extra for speakers or lights. You can also choose the features that work for you, although most hot tubs now come with Bluetooth as standard. 

• Energy Efficiency: Many premium hot tubs now come with energy efficient technology to help reduce the cost and energy consumption of having a larger, permanent hot tub. Look for ones with heat recovery technology to stay environmentally friendly and reduce your energy bills.
• Durability – When looking for a hot tub, quality should always come first. After all, it can be a big investment and the last thing you want is for your hot tub not to last. Thanks to their precision engineering and construction, premium hot tubs are becoming well known for their longevity.

One of the most popular reasons for buying a premium hot tub though, is the size and space. Premium hot tubs can accommodate larger numbers of people due to more seating and come in a variety of sizes and colours. So, if you plan to use your hot tub as a focus for socialising or parties, then a premium hot tub would be a better choice.
