When you buy a hot tub, you make a long term investment in your health, vitality, and well being, so you want to make sure you know the perfect temperature for the best soaking.
Your hot tub works best when you use it regularly, and you’ll get the maximum benefit when you do. The best plan is to keep your hot tub hot and ready, set to the perfect temperature, and always ready for your daily soak.
In this article, we answer the question, “What is the ideal hot tub temperature?”
The right temp is the best way to get the most out of your hot tub experience. There are a few things to think about. Let’s look at them.
First, the perfect spa temperature is a personal preference. We find that it depends on factors like a person’s age, health, and personal choice. There are, however, some recommended guidelines:
After you fill your spa up for the first time, you want to let it sit for about 18-24 hours to let your spa reach a temperature of 100°F (38°C).
Once you’ve done this, and you are enjoying your hot tub on a daily use, make sure that it’s always ready for the best massage and hydrotherapy.
To do this, simply set your spa to your ideal temperature, then close the cover, and leave the thermostat set at that level.
Hot Spring spas feature insulated cabinets, custom-fitted covers, and energy-efficient circulation pumps that work together to maintain a steady temperature while conserving energy.
Your spa utility costs will vary depending on the model and how much you use your hot tub. It’s worth noting that Hot Spring Spas are energy efficient. All of their models are certified to the California Energy Commission (CEC) requirements. California sets the standard for energy-efficient hot tubs, so you can have peace of mind knowing that your spa is designed to keep costs low wherever you live.
While we recommend a “set it and forget it” approach for convenience, energy efficiency, and the longevity of your spa, there are some times to consider dropping water temperature by a few degrees:
A hot tub soak is good for you! The heat of your hot tub improves blood flow. It can also help improve your joint flexibility, and it can provide relief from arthritis pain.
You can even do hot tub stretches and exercises in your hot tub. You can experience these benefits at relatively low temperatures – so set your spa at around 100° to start, and raise it to suit your comfort level.
You will enjoy a daily soak to help you recharge and emerge refreshed with a Hot Spring spa warm and waiting in your backyard
