Top Must-Have Accessories for a Simple & Sleek Hot Tub
Many people purchase hot tubs to have a place to relax. Others use their hot tubs for the primary use of entertainment and parties. Whether you’re enjoying your hot tub with friends, family, or even by yourself, having the right accessories can set the mood!
We often notice that many people focus on enhancing the visual aspect of their hot tub while forgetting about the safety features of a hot tub. Luxury hot tub accessories will help make caring for your hot tub much easier.
Have you ever asked, “How can I make my hot tub more fun?” Consider these few accessories:
- Lighting
- Railings
- Steps
- Speakers
- Cleaning supplies/Filters
Hot Tub Lights
Adding lights to your hot tub is crucial to enhancing your desired hot tub experience. The great thing about hot tub lights is that they not only light up your hot tub but also the surrounding yard or deck! We suggest you consider opting for lights because they illuminate the water while providing a crisp and clear vision of the inside of your hot tub. With internal lights, you can adjust the color and brightness depending on what model you choose to purchase.
A few recommended ways we suggest you set up your lights:
- Add the lights to your deck/yard
- Light up a walkway path to your hot tub
- Consider adding floating lights. These lights are available to purchase from most online retailers.
- Opting for built-in lights for the underwater glow
These four ways are guaranteed to light up your hot tub experience, all while allowing you to create memorable moments that you, your friends, and your family will remember.
Steps & Railings for your Hot Tub
Railings in your hot tub are a great start and should be a top accessory on your list. Railings for your hot tub are a top-notch safety add-on to ensure those who use the hot tub safely get in and out. No matter your age, slippery feet are always a hazard, and accidents can be prevented simply by adding railings. This comes especially handy for the cooler seasons. Around wintertime, freezing around the pool starts to accumulate, causing the surrounding floors to be slippery.
Just like railings, adding steps to your hot tub is an effective way to encourage the safety of your hot tub. The great thing about hot tub steps is that they often come with a wide range of designs, colors, and styles and are sold in different materials ranging from wood, stone, high-grade plastic, and more!
Can You Add Speakers to a Hot Tub?
Yes, you can! Speakers are a fun feature to add to a hot tub as it enhances the entertainment experience.
Many hot tub brands now make hot tubs with built-in speakers. Two common types of speakers are built into a hot tub: flush-mounted and pop-up speakers. Flush-mounted speakers are more hidden by being inside your flush cabinet so that it won’t affect your hot tub look. Pop-up speakers can come in and out of your cabinet, depending on when you want to use them.
Cleaning Supplies & Filters
One of the most important parts of owning and keeping up with a hot tub is ensuring it is safe and clean. Filters are a way to filter out any dirt, debris, and bacteria. You must clean and change your filters regularly to have the most effective filters. Note that if you fail to clean your hot tub on a regular basis, you are putting yourself and others at risk of skin irritations due to bacteria.
