- Is the Intex PureSpa Plus 4-Person worth it?
- For a first hot tub or a rental, yes. It costs far less than an acrylic tub and needs no special wiring. Expect slower heating and weaker jets than a permanent tub.
- How long does it take to heat up?
- Plan on roughly a day or more from cold tap water on a 120V circuit, depending on starting water and air temperature. Keeping the insulated cover on speeds it up.
- Does it need a special electrical outlet?
- No. It runs on a standard 120V household outlet. Avoid sharing the circuit with other high-draw appliances.
- How many people fit?
- Four adults fit comfortably, though it is snug with four large adults. Two or three leaves room to stretch out.
- What comes in the box?
- The tub, the 140-jet bubble system, a filter cartridge, a fitted insulated cover and a ground cloth. Chemicals are sold separately.
- Can it stay outside in winter?
- It can, but heat loss is much faster in cold weather and the heater struggles to keep up. Many owners drain and store it for the winter.
- Where is the Intex PureSpa Plus 4-Person 140 Jet cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $809.99, as of our latest check.
