Reliable Plumbing Services in Santa Cruz: Why Anytime Plumbing is the Go-To Choice

Hot tubs are a wonderful addition to any home, providing a luxury touch to your outdoor space and a fantastic hub for social gatherings or a chilled out evening alone. But how much do they cost?

At Bubble Box Glasgow, a leading supplier of bespoke hot tubs in the Glasgow Area, one of the first questions new customers ask our expert team is how much they should expect to pay in terms of ongoing running costs.

Luckily for them, where you purchase a high quality hot tub system, such as the luxury Eco Spas designed by our partners Aquavia Spa, the answer is pleasantly surprising.

The main ongoing costs of owning a hot tub are:

1. Electricity costs

There are a number of factors that determine just how much electricity your hot tub will use and the impact on your energy bills that will have.

These include:

Type of Hot Tub

Some spa types are incredibly expensive to run with inflatable hot tubs costing as much as £4 per day to run during the summer and even more when temperatures drop.

On the other hand, if you purchase a well-insulated premium hot tub from a respected installer hot tubs can be energy efficient and have a limited noticeable effect on energy use in your home.

Aquavia Eco Spa’s can be combined with an Energy Saving cover that uses many layers of polyurethane foam to maximise heat retention and by opting for this option you can expect to save use around 67% less energy than standard tubs.

The most energy efficient hot tubs on the market will only cost around 75p per day.

How you use your hot tub

Like any electrical appliance the more often you use your hot tub, and the duration of each session, the more you will pay.

It is recommended, to avoid health concerns such as heat stroke, that you only use your hot tub for up to 15 minutes at any one time at temperatures lower than 40°C and if you abide by these guidelines, you will significantly reduce the running costs.

2. Maintenance and repairs

So, running a hot tub doesn’t have to be a major financial commitment in terms of electricity use, but what about servicing and repairs if something goes wrong?

A hot tub service will usually cost around £150, and costs can be limited by using a respected local supplier to avoid paying additional call out fees to cover travel times.

For the best hot tubs and maintenance in the Glasgow area look no further than Bubble Box.

All Aquavia Spa products supplied and installed by Bubble Box come with unique warranties that help to give you peace of mind that if anything does go wrong you won’t have to break the bank paying for replacements or repairs.

Aquavia Spas come with the following warranties as standard:

• 15 years on hot tub structure
• 10 years on acrylic coverings
• 2 years on components.

The Aquavia factory in Barcelona holds a range of quality certificates including ISO 9001 (Quality assurance) and CE markings (proving compliance with EU standards).

Aquavia can confidently offer these extended warranties due to the quality of their products making product faults extremely rare in the first place.

3. Ensuring Water Quality

In order to keep the quality of the water in your hot tub you may need to purchase a number of filters and water purifying chemicals that can add to the ongoing expenditure.

Bubble Box hot tubs, however, come equipped with Clean Water Technology that introduces ozone in the water through the internal filtration system.

This process helps to neutralise any debris found in the water including soap, body oil, and inorganic matter.

This system itself requires no observation and once activated will do its job and turn itself off again once finished.

Some of our spas are also equipped with Ultraviolet Treatment that uses UV technology to eliminate any bacteria in the water.

This system keeps your hot tubs water clean and fresh, breaks down combined chlorine, prevents mould growth, and reduces the need for chemical cleaning products by up to 80%.

This shows that by opting for a high quality hot tub system that includes in-built water cleaning products you can reduce the amount you need to spend on water purification to almost zero.
