Question 1

Can an inflatable hot tub be used in winter?

Accepted Answer

Yes, inflatable hot tubs are very popular in the winter. However, to reach the maximum temperature, you have to insulate the hot tub from the ground and use an insulating cover whenever not in use. Use a ground mat or several layers of an old rug, and use an inflatable or polystyrene cover. You also have to make sure to keep the heater on at all times, for the water to not freeze in it.

Question 2

Do inflatable hot tubs use a lot of electricity?

Accepted Answer

Inflatable hot tubs can use anywhere from $20 up to $100 per month. It mainly depends on the outside temperature and the quality of insulation. To greatly reduce the running costs, always use an insulating cover and an insulating floor mat.

Question 3

How long do inflatable spas last?

Accepted Answer

Quality-made inflatable spas from Intex and Coleman may last at least 5 years if properly taken care of.

Question 4

Are inflatable hot tubs worth buying?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. For a few hundred, you'll get years of relaxation. If your hot tub fails after 5 years, you can purchase a new and much better one, and the cost will still be way lower than built-in or acrylic hot tubs. If you change your mind, you can easily change the place of your spa. People have been building beautiful sheds for their blow-up hot tubs. In case you will have to move to a new house, taking an inflatable hot tub with you is super easy!
