Here's why you should invest in a jacuzzi

Category General News

"I tell myself every day I love my Jacuzzi, I love my marble floors, I love my high ceilings."

- DJ Khaled

The celebrity producer knows his stuff. For thousands of years, hot water has been a powerful way to relax and emerge refreshed. After a long day at work, soaking in a hot tub is the best feeling. When the jets come on, the stress comes off. If you're considering a dip guaranteed to banish the winter woes, here are the benefits of owning a jacuzzi. 

Increases property values

Jacuzzis can give your living space a nice touch. They can become the focal point of an outside recreational area. They're also a drawcard for buyers who appreciate the outdoors or value luxury. 

Do it right: Make your jacuzzi an intentional part of your property. It should be built-in and blend in with your home's exterior. Include attractive landscaping to make it a tranquil paradise. You should also keep your jacuzzi in good condition. 

Great way to entertain 

A jacuzzi is a fun way for family and friends to spend quality time together. When you all jump into the bubbling waters, you can unwind, relax and escape those cellphone notifications. Add candles and romantic music and it sets the mood for couples.

Do it right: Place comfy chairs and tables around your jacuzzi for convenience. You can also include a braai stand or jungle gym near your jacuzzi depending on your space. 

Fine for your health

It's no secret that hot tubs are good for your wellness. Their use provides a range of perks. You can enjoy better sleep, relieve your aches and pains, lower your blood pressure and lose weight. There's really no excuse not to get into those healing waters. 

Do it right: Burn your favourite incense. Vanilla soothes, orange energises, peppermint eases headaches and rosemary reduces inflammation. If you put on a face mask, you'll clear your pores and get the ultimate spa experience. 

All-year activity

This is a big advantage that jacuzzis have over pools. While swimming pools delight in summer, jacuzzis bring the smiles at every season. During warmer weather, you can simply leave them unheated for a refreshing soak. 

Do it right: If you're a fitness freak, you can make it part of your workout routine. During summer, you can use your jacuzzi to cool down. In winter, you can use it to ease your soreness and muscle aches. 

Can be customised

You can get a jacuzzi as unique as you are. There is an assortment of features, colours and sizes available.  

Do it right: Opt for an established company who has a respected name in the industry. You'd be wise to check social media for reviews on their product quality and service. 

Won't break your budget 

Yes, a jacuzzi is still a luxury. However, they've become much more affordable over time. You can even buy a second-hand jacuzzi in decent shape online. 

Do it right: Shop around. This is a big purchase so you may want to wait for a Black Friday special or clearance sale. If you're going with a previously loved jacuzzi, confirm it's in working order before you hand over your money. 

Easier to maintain than a pool

Your jacuzzi has a smaller surface area than a pool. You'll need fewer chemicals and supplies to keep it clean. You'll also have less of an issue with water evaporating.  

Do it right: Be sure to follow the instructions you get carefully. If you don't have time, you can also seek the service of professionals to keep your jacuzzi in tip-top shape.
