Buying Guide

Spas are typically used for two reasons: family time/togetherness or hydrotherapy for ailments or possibly both. Do you suffer from back pain, anxiety and stress, muscle pain or arthritis? Even as little as a 20 minute soak in a spa can help with these conditions.

Determining how many users of the spa will tell you how large the spa must be to comfortably seat everyone.

Typically, loungers are used more for hydrotherapy purposes; massaging the back, thighs, calves and feet. Non-Lounger seating or open seating is generally used for entertainment purposes because they are more spacious and can accommodate more users. If you are unsure which seating style might fit best you may want to try wet or dry testing spas to see.

Price can vary greatly with spas depending on size, features and accessories. You don’t necessarily need to have the biggest, most expensive spa to enjoy the therapeutic benefits. Having a budget in mind while spa shopping can narrow down what seems like endless options and varieties spas have now.

When purchasing a spa it is important to also know the company you are buying from. Do they have a good reputation? Have your friends or relatives purchased from them? Are they capable of servicing your spa if you have issues in the future? Believe it or not some companies do not have factory trained staff on hand to service your spa and may have to call another dealer or service company to fix it.
