    Stay very vigilant on keeping that water treated. My granddaughter developed a very bad skin infection that was antibiotic resistant from getting into that same hot tub from Amazon. I don’t think her paternal grandparents were maintaining it like they should and I’m sure you guys will. Just thought I’d mention. These smaller ones can be harder to maintain water than larger ones because bacteria can grow so rapidly in that amount of water. Not trying to be downer or negative. I take hot baths before bed to help my aching joints and thinking about getting one of these too. Enjoy 😊

    @@imsharonl2 yea we got our granddaughter back and she was covered in bumps that looked a lot like chicken pox so we were thinking maybe that’s what it was and by morning they were worse so took her to the doc and tested negative then found out it was a antibiotic resistant bacterial infection. I called the other grandparents and found out they were broken out with it too and she was in there with them so She is no longer allowed in their hot tub. Just gross.

    That looks wonderful! I can just imagine the nice hot water and how good it must feel to your joints and muscles. ☺️ Here in Japan, we have deep tubs in our bathroom that we fill almost to the top and then we put bath salts in. We can soak in it after our shower and it feels great. But I think having it outside where you can breathe in the fresh air while you’re in the tub and also the bubbles massaging your body must feel great, too. What a good idea for the two of you! I hope you enjoy it every day and keep nice and warm!❤

    I love salts in my whirlpool bath. I am very sensitive to fragrance so only use the real No. Scented Dead Sea salts I order from Israeli Products. Salts can also keep down bacteria and add much magnesium to your bones. Also other beneficial minerals get into your pores.

    One idea ya can also do for safety if you already haven't. Is on out side of the hot tub that you are going to be stepping in/out of lay down a few non slip Mats . Then maybe lay tarp down underneath the hot tub next time setup to help give little protection to the wood.

    Whoever mentioned the probability of bacteria or fungus being a natural hazard of hot tubs is right. I know you two are smart and always put safety first. The filter is SO IMPORTANT!! We had one and always used a device that gave all the parameters of the water quality. Many times had to add more chemicals and watching the pH levels is also very important. I am happy for you two. Being straddled with degenerative arthritis in my spine and having had one back surgery ; I am doing my best not to have a much more serious surgery. I don’t have a hot tub now but I hope to have one soon. Now I am controlling the pain with injections. I can have them every three months and I am always counting down the days beforeI can have another round. Many blessings to you both. ❤️❤️❤️PS. Do you have test strips?

We have to worry about the winters when we aren't there and things freezing, so being able to take this down and store it closer to the electric heaters would work really well. So glad Elizabeth is benefiting from this addition! Yay!

    I like the way the cover latches on. I put up a pool in the summer for my grandkids, but sometimes the cover is plastered against the fence. I have to use chlorine. I put a tablet in a floater and take it out a couple of hours before the kids get in it, so some of it evaporates.

    I'm diabetic and I turn my hot tub temperature down to 98 and at that I can stay in for a long time without feeling like I need to get out. For the filters I recommend Power Soak Filter Cleaner at every water change, especially since you aren't using continuous sanitizer.

    Bill, I wonder if a bucket heater would help heat the water faster. You would have to be careful not to burn the plastic. Maybe immersing the heater in a bucket with large holes, I'm thinking.

    I’m thinking about working on the plumbing. I would run a pipe to a spigot from the hot water heater. That way I could fill it with hot water instead of cold water.
