In ground hot tub: something you need to know

In ground jacuzzi is mainly to embed the Jacuzzi Spa into the ground, seamlessly blending with the surrounding environment, which can save space and enhance the overall aesthetics. However, compared with the independent installation method, the installation and use of the in ground Hot Tub requires more attention to detail. This blog lists the following tips to help everybody know about the in-ground hot tub.

 

Site preparation

First, make sure there is enough space to place the hot tub spa and reserve some space for activities. Also, make sure there is enough underground space for maintenance so that personnel can enter the interior for maintenance in the future. In addition, it is necessary to determine whether the bottom of the Spa Hot Tub is stable enough and use concrete to trim it if necessary to ensure that the ground where the hot tub is placed is flat and solid to prevent the tub from tilting.

Trap door

In addition to reserving maintenance space, you also need to reserve a trap door. It can be decorated with tiles, wood-plastic panels and other materials, and ensure that the trap door is easy to open and close, which is both beautiful and does not affect usage.

Choosing a suitable jacuzzi hot tub

Choose a hot tub based on your actual needs and the size of the reserved space. However, it should be noted that an in ground hot tub has the cabinet part completely hidden in the interior space. Therefore, when purchasing a hot tub, you only need to choose a basic cabinet style.

Pipeline planning

Before installing a hot tub, you need to make sure that the water pipe is connected to the right location and reserve a drain port and drain pipe to ensure that the drain hole and drain pipe of the hot tub are tightly connected to avoid leakage during drainage. Otherwise, the accumulated water may be immersed in the small internal space and cause damage to the electrical parts inside the spa hot tub.

Checking

After the installation is complete, a test inspection is required. First, fill the hot tub with water and run it to check for leaks. Then, make sure all electrical equipment is working properly and the power connection is secure. Finally, perform a drainage test to check for any drainage problems.

Use insulation cover to improve safety

When the in-ground hot tub has been put into use, please note that it needs to be covered with an insulation cover after using the Spa Tub. The in ground hot tub is usually level with the ground. If the bathtub is not isolated with an insulation cover, it will increase the risk of children or pets accidentally falling into the water.
