Hot tub considerations in Sacramento

With the number of hot tub stores to choose from in Sacramento, you may be left with too many options. To narrow your search, start by thinking about two things: Your budget and which features you want the most. Hot tub speakers, waterfalls, fountains, bench seating and LED lights are all popular extras for Sactown hot tub enthusiasts.

One thing to remember is that the cost of a hot tub does not stop with the price of the tub. Setting up a pad for the hot tub is an initial expense, and chemicals, accessories and energy costs for the hot tub adds to the long-term price tag of the purchase.

On the plus side, hot tubs are a relatively low-maintenance backyard edition, and excellent for the recurring symptoms of pain and bad circulation. Here is a breakdown of what you can expect regarding regular hot tub maintenance in Sacramento:

  • Daily maintenance
    • Ensure the hot tub cover is clean and secure
    • Adjust the water temperature as needed
    • Check for damages to hot tub and cover
  • Weekly maintenance
    • Test alkalinity, pH and sanitizer levels
    • Sanitize and shock the water
    • Rinse the hot tub filter
    • Wipe down hot tub cover
  • Monthly maintenance
    • Run the filter through a chemical rinse
    • Inspect jets
    • Test water quality
  • Quarterly maintenance
    • Clean the hot tub cabinet
    • Deep clean filter
    • Drain and clean the tub

Hot tub regulations in Sacramento, California

Local hot tub dealers have experience working with city and state regulations, so feel free to ask them specific questions regarding your hot tub installation. According to the City of Sacramento, all hot tubs deeper than 18” must have at least two drowning features, such as exit alarms and safety covers.

Additionally, California requires that all hot tubs are at least three feet away from property lines and have a fence around them. Hot tubs must be installed on a stable surface that’s close enough to an accurate and applicable electrical outlet.

Sacramento hot tub FAQ

How much does a hot tub cost to run in Sacramento?
Hot tub costs include chemicals ($150 - $250 per year), filters and maintenance ($100 per year) and a higher electricity cost (an added $20 - $50 per month). Your electricity increase depends mostly on how hot you keep your tub and what type of energy savings the model includes.

California is in a water crisis, and some taxes reflect that. Unlike pools, hot tubs only lose about 3 gallons of water per day or 1% of the total household water consumption. At that amount, your water bills should not be significantly affected by a hot tub.

Do warranties cover hot tub repair?
Hot tub warranties typically cover manufacturers defects, not repairs that are caused by wear and tear or damage. Some hot tub dealers offer service plans in addition to the manufacturer's warranty to help cover these costs.
Can any hot tub use salt water?
No, some hot tubs aren’t suited for saltwater. Refer to the instruction manual to see if yours is the right candidate for a chlorinator machine that converts salt to free chlorine.
Can you use a swim spa all year long in Sacramento?
Yes. A swim spa combines the best features of a pool and a hot tub into one system. It allows you to swim continuously against a current as a workout or therapy feature. Because of its multifaceted capabilities and the area’s beautiful weather, many Sacramento residents use it all year round.
How warm is a swim spa?
Most people keep the temperature around 80 degrees when exercising. When relaxing, you can boost the heat up to 104 degrees.
