A Hollywood lifestyle of being able to go out and relax in a spa or a hot tub sounds really nice …that really is a millionaire’s dream. In movies, we watch millionaires soaking in their hot tub as they sip an expensive bottle of wine and listen to upbeat music – many of us want to do that, but don’t have thousands of dollars to make those Hollywood dreams come true.
And this is the biggest misunderstanding between the two. There is a huge debate on the durability of inflatable hot tubs, but the fact of the matter is that they are now built with materials that make them as dependable as portable hot tubs. The reason inflatable hot tubs had to improve on their design is because they are moved twice as much as portable hot tubs.
A growing trend in the UK, hot tubs are popping up in more back gardens than ever. They’re a great alternative to a pool if you don’t have the space, or if you simply want somewhere to sit and relax or exercise in any weather. The choice people face once they decide they want the luxury of a hot tub, however, is whether they want a permanent tub or an inflatable one.
They don’t usually use real water jets, but instead use fans to “blow” the air around (also because of the 120 volt outlet), which causes them to cool down much faster than a regular hot tub. This cooling effect is only made worse by the fact that the materials they are made from lose heat much faster than the materials used on a regular hot tub. All in all, you aren’t likely to get more than 15 minutes to a half an hour of good heat out of an inflatable hot tub.
