liam1 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 went yesterday with the missus and my young son to look at them, as we spend a lot of time in the garden we thought why not get one, my son loves the idea, just wondering if you guys have one and do you use it a lot.

brassbones Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Maybe its just my age, and possibly years of dubious viewing choices (ahem!) but the terms 'hot tub' and 'swingers party' are synonymous for me! Lol!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cknr0lla Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I have one.. Lazy Spa.. Kind of portable blow up one. I must say I am so impressed at the quality of it and it works 100%.. sturdy with strong bubbles and proper heat when warm. Just left it erected and filled under cover and switch it on a day before use to heat up. Obviously check the levels etc regularly but use it often as the little one absolutely loves it!

j_jza80 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 By levels you presumably mean the chlorine? Remember to keep on top of the chlorine, it goes green in no time otherwise Also, don't get a lazy spa if you have cats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cknr0lla Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Chlorine and PH yes lol... I have a cat.. uses it as his bed :-P By levels you presumably mean the chlorine?

Style Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 What baffles me is that some of the high end ones are more expensive than a freshly imported TT6! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 We have a Jucuzzi J345 and its one of single best purchases I ever made, I opted for this one as it has hydrotheraputic jets and seating positions so it targets key muscles and joints. We use it quite often even after 2 years of ownership, probably on average 4 times a week for about 20 mins, great for relaxation, it has a built in Audio which is nice if you want to relax to your music too. Only thing is you have to remember is keep on top of the chemicals and managing your filters. Excuse the wife, this when it was delivered and filled for the first time.

pedrosixfour Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Richard (ManWithSupra) has one for sure. Edit: See above! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samdale Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 When I bought my house it came with an Arctic spa cub. Used it quite regularly for a while but having lived here for 2years now it's been recently turned off and emptied. The novelty has worn off and I got a bit bored with all the showering to get rid of the bromine smell. Shame it can't just run on pure water. Also, for the small amount of use it was getting, it costs around £25-30 a month to run as its kept at 38degC all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, for the small amount of use it was getting, it costs around £25-30 a month to run as its kept at 38degC all the time We found ours only costs around £15 a month to run @ 38°c even with the use we have. We decided to negate the cost by replacing lightbulbs with LED ones around the house as an when they blew, we now use overall less power than we did before we got the tub I am currently building a small section of our garage (which is next to the tub) into a small heated changing room with a basic electric shower so you can wash the chlorine/bromine off right away. We love our tub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Never fancied one. As a water engineer I know they are ideal for spreading bacteria and 38 degrees is ideal for legionaires disease. http://www.hse.gov.uk/legionnaires/spa-pools.htm Enjoy your dip.....lol..!! H.

Burna Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I'm more than happy to come round and test out any new hot tubs. It'll probably have to be emptied and burnt after, but it will be a great party Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_aero Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 I rent a house with a jacuzzi 680 or something. Love it. And its no hassle at all to maintain. More effort than a swimming pool but quite easy to look after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Having a bath in the garden is the preserve of Romanian migrants, and Elton John's partner and friends, please keep the British end up and rethink this dubious practice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
