Cost for hot tub installation / pad?




curious


About how much does it cost for a 6-8 person salt water hot tub in Tacoma, Wa? (Cost of tub, concrete slab, ect.)


Answer
The cost is about $5-7,000. Assuming you already have easy access to outdoor water/plumbing. But a salt-water hot tub? Never heard of that. But the proof of the pudding is in calling 3 or 4 dealers in that product and get their prices, installed. You may also attend a Home & Garden Show, where such dealers proliferate.

How much to install an outlet for an outdoor hot tub?




RandolphH


Im considering getting a backyard hot tub and want to understand all the costs involved.

Most hot tubs require a 240-volt electrical gfci outlet so I will need this outlet installed outside.

How much would an electrician charge for this job?

I live in the North East.

Thanks



Answer
anywhere between 100-500 quid depending on how good the electrician is, dont go for the cheapest but dont go for the most expensive. to tell if you have a good tradesmen check for few signs, is his van neat and tidy, signwritten? does he have a uniform or proper work clothes not just scabby jeans and t shirt? does he have an apprentice or another guy with him? this would indicate he is getting a lot of regular work which shows he can be trusted and is a good tradesmen. alternatively there is a search for check a trade in google however not every tradesmen is registered, im not but still get work and my work is still quality.

More importantly dont do it your self if you dont know what your doing i.e. what size and type of cable required, swa cable will be the choice most sparks will use (and should use) which is slightly more expensive the size depends on the current it will have to carry i.e how much current the hot tub is, how many amps it uses. but Part P regualtions and the law states no work is to be undertaken by anyone not part p registered hope this helped

I am looking to purchase a house with an outdoor unprotected hot tub in an area with severe winters. Do I change the water? Is it expensive to keep it heated?
What are pitfalls?

This house also has only one bathroom which contains a whirlpool bath and I like bath oil. Do I just make sure the jets are off when using bath oil? Or are my bath oil and bubble baths over?

Thanks.



Answer
just turn the temp down but winter is the best time to use it don't drain it you will crack the pvc pipe enjoy the hot tub if you use it it about a dollar aday to use it your cell phone cost more to use

I want to try to keep it cooler when im not using it, but at the same time i don't want to wait 24 hrs for it to heat up. I live in michigan and its going to be average about 55 degrees for this next week. Im aiming to cut energy costs. My hot tub has a econ mode button. I don't know exactly how it differs from the standard settting.


Answer
We keep ours at 80 when we know we won't be using it. However, we live in a warmer climate and even though it is set to 80, the water never gets that cool.
When we do want to use it, we put it on the 'standard' setting and it gets up to 104 in about 4 hours.

Perhaps try setting it on 'econ' and then about 90 degrees.
