Lay-Z-Spa 60025 Helsinki Hot Tub, 180 AirJet Wood Effect Inflatable Spa with Freeze Shield Year Round Technology and Rapid Heating, 5-7 Person

Product Information

We intend to use our Hot Tub more often but with the current running costs, this makes it difficult. That’s why I’ve been looking into improving the efficiency of the tub. Here is what I have come up with: The hot tub is designed to ensure that you enjoy a hot tub bath and massage throughout the year including during the cold seasons. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about the water freezing during the winter seasons. The availability of the freeze shield technology in the tub enables it to maintain the right water temperatures all the time. Portable.

Apart from allowing you to unwind and relax the body after a long day, this air jet system hot tub is meant to enable you to relax your body muscles and the joints as well. It comes with a button where you can press to release therapeutical bubbles intended to massage the entire body. The equipped 120 airject massage system enables the massage process. Water filtration system. We've now put a good number of Lay-Z-Spa hot tubs through their paces, and our review team has always been impressed by the design and build quality. However, that recognisable brand name does tend to mean its products come with a premium price tag compared to other, perhaps lesser-known, brands. With this being the coldest time of year, running costs for the spa are obviously higher. In the below examples you can see our standard energy usage and then a spike in usage when we turn the hot tub on. Cheaper inflatable options are great if you want to save money and have a tub you can deflate and stow away but try to remember they won’t be super-durable. So if you’re looking for a long-term investment you’ll need to spend a little more. Find out more about installing your hot tub or scroll down for popular hot tub brands. Types of hot tubs Hard shell hot tubsMy initial thought on the bottom of the tub was, that it looks a bit thin and therefore uncomfortable. But I’m happy to say it is perfectly comfortable. (Maybe the thermal floor mat helps) We really like our Helsinki spa and would happily buy it again because it provides a relaxing space to unwind, entertain guests or enjoy quiet time with loved ones. It’s our little slice of luxury. The Helsinki hot tub has a thermostatic for regulating the water temperatures. Therefore, the device can maintain and heat the water up to 40 degrees Celcius. The ability to keep the water at these temperatures makes it easy for one to massage, and even filter off debris from the water at the same time. Note that you can set up the time you want all these activities to take place with the equipped timer. Who is the Helsinki hot tub perfect for? It’s one of the company’s larger tubs, so more water needs heat-up and be treated, but Lay Z Spa are continually developing their products to be more cost-efficient.

Finally, there is a timer button which can be used to delay the startup of the heater function. We don’t use this feature as it seems a bit pointless. It’s just a delay start feature. Unless you upgrade to the Wi-Fi version you have very little control over the start/stop schedules. It’s a manual task on the Helsinki. Lay-Z-Spa cleaning and maintenance Whilst a 6-person hot tub may sound extravagant if you're a family of two adults and two kids, it's still going to be a much more relaxing experience if you all want to enjoy the jacuzzi at once. And, if there are two of you soaking up the bubbles, a 2-person hot tub will be a more intimate experience than a 4-person hot tub which will give you both room to stretch out your legs a little. Hot tub water capacity The next chart shows usage for one full week during May. It was still pretty cold outside and this is reflected in the peak heating time and then average running costs once heated. The spacious design makes it a great option for families or parties, although the flipside is that the thinner walls mean there's less insulation, and the large capacity means more water to heat and that more energy will be used to maintain your desired temperature.

Jets: the number, type and positioning of jets will vary with each hot tub. Paying more will typically allow for more jets and customised positioning. Like an inflatable hot tub, it can be self-assembled and disassembled and requires none of the hassle or expensive installation costs of a static spa, yet its rigid foam build makes it a sturdier and more stylish proposition than the 'paddling pool' aesthetic of an inflatable. Plus, there are no punctures to worry about.
