You’ll need to just be sure you have a great degree house that may deal with the hundreds of kilos a full sizzling tub weighs earlier than you place this factor there: it’s not mild, and it completely shouldn’t be positioned on an unreinforced deck or a raised patio you don’t need sagging into the bottom. My location was disused and really practically degree, with pavers over sandy soil that may take the burden. Be sure you examine this earlier than even contemplating a sizzling tub.
The one actual meeting, aside from ensuring you’ve gotten sufficient energy (both a regular 120V circuit or 240V dryer outlet will work, with 240 being noticeably quicker to warmth), is putting in the lid. It’s a traditional flip-top model sizzling tub lid with foam insulation. It comes with drillable clips so to be certain that it stays safe on windier days.

The bathtub has 12 jets and 4 clear seating positions, with a standard footwell for everybody to share as soon as inside. It’s a bit tight with bigger people, however you’ll be able to fairly comfortably match 4 adults within the tub, and really simply match two (and a child, my spouse and I found, if the temp is low sufficient).
Controls are easy buttons on the facet of the bathtub, with a temp readout that tells you what the present temp is, with the set temp adjustable by arrow keys, in addition to the small spa mild, and the jets.
The jets themselves are simply turned on and off with mentioned change, except the spa is heating, at which period they continue to be on to flow into the heated water. You possibly can regulate how robust the bubbles are with intelligent little knobs on prime of the bathtub rim subsequent to the cupholders (important for a sizzling tub).

In case you’re a brand new sizzling tub purchaser, it’s primarily as simple as filling up the bathtub, then ready the 24-ish hours it takes to warmth up water to your required temperature. I set the bathtub to its most 104 levels Fahrenheit for a correct warmth soak, and it took a bit over 24 hours to warmth the bathtub from tap-cold water on 120V in the course of winter. Your mileage will differ, however plan on a day or two till it’s correctly rocking.
