Our hot tubs feature high-density insulation and heat-retention technology, ensuring efficient temperature stability, reduced energy use and reliable performance throughout the year — even in challenging UK weather conditions.
Our hot tubs are equipped with efficient circulation pumps that keep water clean, balanced and moving smoothly through the system, enhancing clarity, improving filtration and supporting a consistently enjoyable spa experience.
Premium stainless steel jets deliver powerful, targeted hydrotherapy, offering deep muscle relief and consistent water flow while maintaining exceptional durability and corrosion resistance.
Hot tubs use advanced electric heating elements designed to warm the water evenly and maintain a steady temperature, providing a comfortable and reliable experience for everyday relaxation and hydrotherapy.
Built with improved thermal transfer and insulated plumbing, the heating system reduces warm-up times and keeps water at your chosen temperature for longer, supporting both short soaks and extended sessions without fluctuations.
Integrated thermal sensors and intelligent heating cycles ensure efficient energy use by maintaining heat with minimal power draw, helping reduce running costs while keeping the water perfectly comfortable year-round.
Strong, Level Foundation:
Place your hot tub on a solid, stable surface such as a patio, concrete base or reinforced decking to safely support the full weight of water and users.
Easy Access for Delivery & Maintenance:
Ensure there is enough space around the tub for installation, servicing and routine cleaning — especially important in lodges and holiday homes with frequent turnover.
Sheltered, Well-Drained Location:
Position the tub in a spot protected from strong winds to improve energy efficiency, and choose an area with reliable drainage to make water changes simple and safe.
In most residential cases, a Hot Tub will fall under permitted development. However:
If the structure is large, placed near boundaries, in listed / conservation areas or within certain height limits you may need local authority permission.
For commercial installations, you may need to comply with building regulations, fire-safety standards, disabled access, electrical certification and health & safety requirements. Always consult local regulations and our team can advise you regarding your specific installation.
Find out more about planning permission.
Scheduled Delivery & Inspection:
We arrange a full-day delivery slot and call an hour before arrival. On delivery, you can check the hot tub for any visible damage or missing parts and report issues within 24 hours to maintain warranty cover.
Professional Positioning & Setup
Our two-person team provides free delivery, positioning and installation. They place the hot tub in your chosen spot, assemble steps, fit accessories and connect it to your pre-installed electrical supply — suitable for homes, lodges, cabins and holiday homes.
Testing, Guidance & Cleanup:
The team tests the control box, shows you the basic controls and removes all packaging, leaving a clean and ready-to-use setup for both domestic and commercial environments.
Running cost:
Typically £20–£60 per month for a well-insulated hot tub, rising to £60-£80 per month in winter if poorly insulated.
Yes, hot tubs can be used all year round in the UK, including winter, with a good insulated cover.
Every 2–4 months, depending on usage and water care.
Weekly water testing and chemical balancing, filter cleaning every 1–2 weeks, and regular surface cleaning.
This is usually not required for portable hot tubs, but may be needed for permanent installations or decking structures.
