PARK CITY, Utah — If you’ve been dreaming about a hot tub in your backyard, there’s no better time to make it happen than right now. Most people don’t realize that roughly 75% of hot tub installations happen during the winter months, according to Reazon Singer, owner of The Spa Source. That surge in demand during the cold season drives up the cost of nearly everything involved in setting up and running your spa.

“You can save upwards of 25% on your installation in the spring or summer,” Singer said.

Those savings add up fast when you consider all the moving parts. Running electrical conduit through frozen ground, for example, takes roughly twice as long as it does in summer and labor costs reflect that. If your installation requires a concrete pad, expect to pay about twice as much in winter as in the warmer months.

In other words, the spa itself is just the beginning. The real cost difference shows up in the installation, and spring is when those numbers work in your favor.

With economic uncertainty top of mind for many households right now, The Spa Source is also offering $2,000 to $3,500 off select models, including its Caldera lineup, to help Summit County residents get the best spa at the best possible price.

Don’t wait until the first snow to start thinking about it. Beat the rush, avoid the premium and enjoy your new hot tub all season long.
