- Does it need a special outlet?
- It runs on a standard 110-120V household outlet, but the heater draws a lot of current, so avoid sharing the circuit with other heavy appliances.
- How long does it take to heat?
- From cold tap water it typically takes many hours to reach soaking temperature, longer in cold weather. The insulated cover helps it hold heat between uses.
- Can it stay up all year?
- It can stay inflated outdoors, but in freezing weather the water and heater lines risk damage. Many owners drain and store it for winter.
- How many people fit?
- Intex rates it for four adults. Two people have plenty of room, while four is snug but workable.
- What comes in the box?
- The tub, a fitted insulated cover with lock clips, a ground cloth, the filter cartridge and the inflation and control unit are included.
- Is it hard to keep clean?
- It uses a standard cartridge filter and regular chlorine or bromine, like any spa. The filter needs rinsing often and replacing periodically.
- Where is the Intex Hot Tub Pure Spa Plus 4-People Portable 77 in x 28 in Bubble 140-Jet Spa cheapest?
