You work hard.
You deserve to come home after a long day for some much-needed R&R. And what better way to kick back and relax, than a hot tub?
Whether you’re a seasoned spa owner or new to the world of hot tubs, it’s important to do some research before diving in. As you shop for hot tubs online and in-store, you’ll notice that there are a number of factors that can set one apart from another.
One of the most important considerations to keep in mind when shopping for a hot tub is the size. The size of your hot tub can have an impact on your long-term enjoyment, how it fits into your lifestyle and even the installation itself.
For many of our customers, a 4-person hot tub is the perfect choice. Not too big, not too small – just right! In this article, we’re going to be taking a closer look at 4-person hot tubs, from the signs that this size is perfect for you, to options on the market, and more.
Let’s begin!
Why Buy a Hot Tub?
Before you begin your hot tub shopping journey, we invite you to first learn more about the hot tub lifestyle. By gaining a more comprehensive understanding of the benefits that a hot tub can offer, chances are you’ll make a more informed and confident buying decision.
The last thing our team at Johnson Pools & Spas wants is for our customers to hesitate or feel buyers remorse following the purchase of their spa. That’s why we prioritize education and learning, before you even begin to shop around!
Here are the top reasons why you should consider purchasing a hot tub:
1. Health Benefits
While many associate hot tubs with relaxation, they often don’t consider just how this warm and comforting environment can impact their health. In fact, the regular use of a hot tub can dramatically impact your health – in the most positive of ways!
The most common health benefits of regularly using a hot tub can include:
- Eased pain, tension and soreness
- Fewer headaches and migraines
- Support in post-injury recovery
- Better sleep patterns and more energy
- Improved overall mood
- Better flexibility, balance and mobility
- Support in weight management
Many health benefits can be associated with various therapies enjoyed within the spa, including but not limited to hydrotherapy, aromatherapy, chromotherapy, and reflexology.

2. Home Improvement
Have you ever noticed that most investments in your home offer motivation to clean, improve and better enjoy the area? The same goes for those who have recently purchased a hot tub!
Many homeowners who have invested in a hot tub are naturally motivated to continue the improvement journey throughout their home and backyard space. With a hot tub, most are eager to elevate their landscaping, upgrade their patio or deck area, invest in new patio furniture, and even update their approach to exterior lighting!
Not only can this positively impact your enjoyment, but the overall appeal and value of your home will enjoy a good boost as well. This can be exceptionally helpful if you wish to sell your home in the future.
3. Lifestyle Boost
It’s hard to deny that hot tub owners generally experience a boost in their overall lifestyle.
Not only do hot tub owners benefit from more rest, rejuvenation and relaxation through self-care, but they are also provided with the opportunity to host family and friends! Whether you’re looking to connect with your partner, have a girls night or host an elaborate party, your hot tub has you covered.
