Hot Tubs, Saunas and Home Spas - Enjoy the Natural Therapy of Steam and Heat

Hot tubs and saunas welcome you to the world of ultimate relaxation. Nothing feels as good as slipping into the warmth of a Jacuzzi whirlpool or hot tub spa to soothe tired muscles. The therapeutic effect of a thermal spa bath or cleansing steam sauna will make a difference - both physically and mentally.

Change the way you feel

Enjoy the health benefits of a stress relieving home sauna - from a one or two person shower suite to steam bath rooms that can accommodate a group. Construct an outdoor pool side sauna cabin that can be used throughout the year.

State of the art generators create relaxing steam that penetrates and relaxes muscles and joints. Choose a sauna heater that is efficient for either large or small saunas with the convenience of timers and remote controls.

Build it yourself with a sauna kit that can include pre cut, modular pieces for easy assembly.

Healing from the sun

Infrared sauna therapy can provide pain relief to those suffering from chronic fatigue, arthritis and fibromyalgia. Exposure speeds oxygen flow, increases blood circulation and provides more effective detoxification. Like sunlight, radient saunas can reduce depression, especially during dark winter days.

Dry, radiant heat is only one advantage - a portable infra red sauna is quick to assemble, requires minimum maintenance and is inexpensive to operate.

Do-it-yourself kits

For a DIY project assemble a hottub from western red cedar. Order a kit that includes a thick vinyl cover, optional heating systems, child safety locks, adjustable jets with individual controls and bi-level seating. Detailed instructions for assembly and operating manuals are included. More about hot tub covers.

Installation of indoor hot tubs requires special considerations - proper ventilation is necessary because of the moisture and heat. A good bathroom fan or venting system is a must.

Arrange for extravagance

Built-to-order spas and the latest products are known for easy care, practical luxury, and sometimes just fun. They include such features as a TV, LED waterfall and swim current. Consider it an investment in your home, health and lifestyle.

Relax in a place apart

Modular, ready to assemble hot tub enclosures are perfect for any backyard or deck. Designs such with open lattice walls work in warm climates. For colder areas, build structures with a strong roof load capacity for snow load.

Put together a hot tub room in the backyard - order a gazebo with a sky dome, vaulted ceiling and oversized windows. Gazebos range in size from 8'x8' to larger 12ft x 22ft models.

Crystal clear

The right combination of chemicals keeps hot tubs at their best. Use balancers to raise, lower and stabilize ph levels - high ph leads to scale formation and cloudy water.

Maintaining calcium at the right level will help prevent corrosion of metal parts in the filtration system. Add a filter cartridge cleaner, scum absorber, foam remover and enzyme clarifier for low maintenance.

Another option is an ozonator - ozone purifiers keep spas sanitized with minimal use of chemicals resulting in reduced irritation to skin and eyes and less of a chemical odor.

Add a dispenser for chlorine or bromine tablets. Don't forget to clean and deodorize the cover with wipes that provide UV protection.

Necessary inner workings

Both small circulation pumps and larger heavy duty jet pumps are easy to install. They are convertible for different voltage configurations and are designed for low energy consumption and quiet operation.

Reliable electronic heater packs regulate the temperature in the hot tub for safety and comfort with a full range thermostat and 24 hour timer.

Replacement parts and hot tub supplies are readily available online.

Accessories that make life easier

Keep track of the temperature with a floating thermometer. Install hand grab rails, an easy mounting umbrella and LED lights. Enjoy good music with a radio and drink tray by your side - and step out to a warm towel or robe from a warming cabinet.

The best is yet to come

Aromatherapy scents offer floral, spicy and fruity fragrances for a soothing experience. Specially formulated for hot tubs and spas, they will not damage the equipment or disturb the water balance.
