The cost to run a hot tub can vary widely based on several factors, including the size of the hot tub, the climate, energy rates, and how often you use it. On average, you can expect the monthly cost to be between £15 and £40. In colder climates or with more frequent use, costs can rise to £80 or more per month.

We recommend leaving your hot tub turned on as much as possible. It is much more cost-effective and efficient to turn the heat down slightly rather than turning it off altogether. Heating the hot tub if it has been off for a long period of time is time-consuming and ultimately more expensive. An additional benefit of keeping it turned on low is that it ensures the water is filtered and cleaner ready for your next use. However, if you are planning on not using it for a while or wanting a winter shut-down, we offer this service. We can send a fully approved engineer to your home in order to completely drain the hot tub including the draining pipes. Clean down the hot tub and ensure that no water remains in the system, avoiding any damage from freezing pipes.

13-amp hot tubs are great because they allow you to plug into normal conventional plug sockets. However, the 32-amp hot tubs require specific power supply upgrades that can only be done by a qualified electrician. While the 32-amp hot tubs typically offer more performance and generally higher specification, it is because of this that they require more power. Please factor in the cost of having an electrician install a 32-amp power supply at your home or business. Our 13-amp hot tubs either have a single 2-speed pump or separate jet and circulation pumps along with a 2kW heater. The heater will not work when the jets are on and visa versa. A 32-amp hardwired hot tub will generally have a 3kw heater and at least one pump (up to 5 pumps) dependant on the model specification. The 32-amp hot tubs need a separate isolator which would need to be installed by a trained and certified professional electrician.

Before your hot tub is delivered, you will need to make some preparations. This includes installing an appropriate electrical supply for your hot tub. The product pages specify the maximum power supply for each tub. However, we are happy to discuss this with you before your purchase if you wish to check. Your electrician will require this information, but it should be straightforward for a certified electrician. You will also need to create a solid base for the hot tub to stand on. Please refer to our Pre-Delivery Guide for more information.

Owning a swim spa offers a range of benefits, including versatile exercise options, relaxation, and hydrotherapy. Swim spas combine the benefits of a traditional pool and a hot tub in one compact unit, making them ideal for both fitness enthusiasts and those seeking relaxation.

Swim spas differ from traditional pools in size, functionality, and maintenance. While traditional pools are larger and deeper, swim spas are compact and offer adjustable current for swimming in place. Additionally, swim spas require less maintenance and space compared to traditional pools.

Maintaining a swim spa involves regular cleaning, water testing, and chemical balancing. It's essential to clean the filters, check and adjust the water chemistry, and ensure the swim spa's components are in good working condition. Regular maintenance helps prolong the lifespan of the swim spa and ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for users.

Swim spas come with various features such as adjustable current for swimming, hydrotherapy jets for relaxation, LED lighting for ambiance, built-in seating for comfort, and water purification systems for cleanliness. These features enhance the swim spa experience and cater to different user preferences.

Maintaining water quality in a swim spa involves regular testing, balancing chemicals, cleaning filters, and ensuring proper circulation. It's essential to monitor pH levels, sanitize the water, and address any issues promptly to keep the water clean and safe for use. Following a routine maintenance schedule helps ensure optimal water quality in the swim spa.

The ideal temperature range for a swim spa is typically between 82°F to 88°F (28°C to 31°C). This temperature range provides a comfortable environment for both swimming and relaxation activities. It's important to adjust the temperature based on personal preference and intended use of the swim spa.

32 Amp For our 32 amp hot tubs, it is essential to hire a qualified electrician. This is a specialist job, and since most hot tubs are installed outdoors and filled with water, ensuring the electrical work is suitable and safe is critical. Only a professional electrician should handle the installation to comply with safety standards. 16 Amp (13 Amp) Our 16 amp hot tubs can operate on a regular RCD-protected "caravan" style socket. While we always recommend having someone familiar, experienced, or qualified to handle the power supply, a standard power supply from your home or business is usually sufficient. If you have any doubts, please consult a local electrician to inspect and ensure everything is safe for you.

The great news is that hot tubs don’t need a permanent water supply. They’re filled and drained using a hosepipe. This means you shouldn’t need to install any additional plumbing at your home.

If you choose a package which includes our delivery and positioning service, we’ll use a special spa sled to manoeuvre your new hot tub into place. You can find out more information in our Pre Delivery Guide.

Please contact us to discuss access if you have any concerns at all.

Yes! Although we can’t provide you with a crane, we can help you source one. Crane costs will vary from around £250 to £800+, depending on factors such as the height of your house, the distance from kerbside to the hot tub’s final position, and the type of crane being used. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Some of the potential benefits include reducing muscle soreness, improving recovery time, decreasing inflammation and improving circulation. It’s important to note that Chill Tubs are not suitable for everyone and can be uncomfortable or even dangerous for some individuals. It’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new recovery routine. In addition to physical benefits, the Chill Tub may have mental health benefits. Use of the Chill Tub may help improve your mood and increase mental alertness.

Chill Tubs are suitable for most people, most of the time, however we recommend to take a cautious approach and we would advise that people with reduced mobility, sensory, and/or cognitive abilities only use the Chill Tub if supervised and only if they have the knowledge necessary to use the equipment safely, as well as to understand the dangers arising from improper use. Tolerance to cold water varies from person to person and we recommend being mindful of gradually building up the duration of use with the Chill Tub and be cautious when using it alone. Children must be supervised near the Chill Tub to make sure they do not play with the equipment and do not carry out operations to be performed by adults (cleaning cycles/maintenance). Always attach the cover when not in use. Small children are not advised to use the Chill Tub. Pregnant women should talk to a doctor first, low temperatures are not advised. Anybody under medical care, such as people with heart conditions, diabetes, high or low blood pressure or other health problems must not use the Chill Tub without first consulting their doctor. People with infectious diseases should not use the Chill Tub without first consulting their doctor.

Do not use the Chill Tub after drinking alcohol or taking recreational drugs. The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of fatal hypothermia when using the Chill Tub.

The amount of time you can spend in cold water without suffering from hypothermia is determined by the water temperature, your body size and shape, your level of cold adaptation and your experience, among other factors. Check with your doctor as relevant. Start with safe, short dips of 30 seconds to learn what your limits are. If you begin to feel uncomfortable or you start to shiver, listen to your body, get out and slowly warm up by walking around. If you like, you can check the water temperature before entering the bath, to ensure that it is at temperature that is suitable for your experience in cold exposure. The temperature of the water is displayed as default on the control panel.
