When shopping for a spa it is just as important to compare the upfront price of the hot tub, to the long term cost of operation, especially in cold climates. It would be a mistake to choose a spa that may cost $1,000 or so less upfront. That same spa can easily cost $50 more per month in the winter. Averaging 5 months of heating per year, with a spa life as little as 15 years… that “bargain spa” will cost $2,250 over the 15 year period in energy efficiency alone… not to mention maintenance costs!
