Hot Tub & Deck

The model we chose has 44 jets and seats six people, we really liked the color, it's called oyster opal.

It has a dark brown synthetic cabinet, an ABS plastic bottom pan, and a 10 year warranty on the structure, no worries about rot in our wet climate.

It had a hydraulic cover lifter installed so they threw that in as well, Lisa can open it by herself with just one hand.

While I was waiting for the electrician to get back from a parts run I filled it up, took about 45 minutes.

The 50amp disconnect that he installed for me, the 1" flex conduit and #6 wire was especially difficult to deal with.

I built a set of steps using synthetic decking, it's expensive but requires no maintenance, we will probably use it to build the deck.

About 24 hours later the water is 102 degrees and ready to go.

The waterfall is a silly feature but it looks kind of cool when it's running.

You can see that the patio just isn't big enough, we need to get a deck built this spring.

The cover works as a privacy screen so we can block out any view of the street we might have.

I mounted the railing on the steps instead of the side of the tub, I'd rather not drill holes in the cabinet if I can avoid it.

I had to rip a 2x4 to space out the post from the risers, a couple of 8" bolts hold it all together.
