Our Verdict: Best Lay-Z-Spa hot tubs for your garden
The Lay-Z-Spa Miami Hot Tub gets our vote for being a robust, mid-priced inflatable spa that's efficient to run with an energy-saving timer and rapid heat system. We think it's going to tick the most boxes for people looking for a therapeutic place to relax. Its 120 AirJet system will provide an invigorating massage for one to four people. Also, it comes with an insulated protective cover and double lock safety clips, which is important if you have children or pets. Additionally, the hot tub is made of strong Duraplus material and has Free Shield technology, so this Lay-Z-Spa is robust enough to be used outdoors all year round.
Finally, if you are looking for a party hot tub that's a little bigger, we recommend the Lay-Z-Spa Helsinki. This seven-seater hot tub has extra powerful jets and a wonderful wood effect that makes it a competitive alternative to a permanent hot tub.
FAQS
How expensive is it to run a hot tub?
This all depends on how much you intend to use your hot tub and which model you choose. Overall, hot tubs can be quite expensive to run; however, some models have high-tech energy-saving systems which can maintain the temperature. The running price of a hot tub is also dependent on how high your temperature is set and how warm it is outside.
Can inflatable hot tubs be used in winter?
While the British climate may not be the best for the hot tub season year-round, most contemporary inflatable hot tubs are made with a heat maintenance system that will keep the water warm even during the winter months. Therefore, unless it's raining – you can go into the hot tub for most of the year.
How to clean an inflatable hot tub?
To clean the water in the hot tub, you will need to add a sanitiser like chlorine, which will come in tablet form or in granules. The chlorine should be added straight away to eliminate all the bugs we carry into the water before they have the chance to multiply. Depending on how much you use the hot tub, you should sanitise it every day or every few days.
Check your instructions on the model you have purchased to determine which sanitiser your hot tub will need and follow the suggested quantities.
You can remove the filter weekly to clean it by using filter cleaner. However, some models will require daily cleaning. Inflatable hot tub filters can become clogged more frequently than permanent hot tubs, so it's best to be consistent and clean it often. Every few weeks, you should drain your hot tub to clean it with liquid soap and water. Check your model's instructions to find out the best formula to use.
Ultimately, the best way to keep your hot tub clean and functioning is by doing frequent and thorough maintenance. If you do a quick job of cleaning, it will result in degradation and unclean water. Definitely not what you want for a relaxing evening in the hot tub!
How long do inflatable hot tubs last?
A hot tub's life expectancy depends on how well you take care of and maintain it. Some people report problems after only a few months of usage, while others have stated they have had up to five years of use out of their inflatable hot tub. The average time a hot tub lasts is around two to three years of use.
Inflatable hot tub maintenance
After selecting your dream inflatable hot tub, be sure to read through the manufacturer's instructions so you know how to best take care of it so it will last a long time.
You will need first to clean the tub itself and the filter, plus test the pH and alkalinity of the water.
pH and alkalinity: If your inflatable hot tub doesn't come with a test kit, you'll need to purchase one to test the pH and alkalinity of the hot tub water at least once a week. The recommended amount of pH levels should be around 7.4 to 7.6 pH. If it is too acidic or has too much alkaline, you could damage the material of the inflatable hot tub and irritate your skin.
