Hot Tubs
Hot tubs have been as much a staple of relaxation as they’ve been treated as status symbols.
The hot tub was originally a round wooden tub, similar to a barrel used for soaking in warm water. Today, the word hot tub is typically used to describe a home spa. Another common name for the hot tub is Jacuzzi, the name of a popular home spa manufacturer that is often used as a generic term.
Home spas are constructed from an acrylic shell and can be found encased in a freestanding enclosure or built in-ground. Most hot tubs feature water jets, used for massaging.
Hot tubs are usually heated using an electric heater or natural gas. Monitoring the water temperature is important to ensure proper comfort and safety levels.
