The shell of every ROTOSPA hot tub is constructed using a process called rotational molding. Shell ingredients are placed in a mold which is rotated horizontally and vertically then baked
producing a one piece shell which is incredibly strong and impervious to environmental influences. It is guaranteed for ten years but we know it will provide years of
trouble free enjoyment.
Why should I purchase a RotoSpa?
ROTOSPA is by far your best value in a full feature portable hot tub. It will provide years of enjoyment for you and your family at a reasonable cost. Every ROTOSPA hot tub is made using our
exclusive one piece molding process making it a more durable product than acrylic and fibreglass alternatives.
Where are they made?
ROTOSPA's are manufactured in Lakefield, Ontario Canada.
What is involved in installing one of your hot tubs?
Full of water, a ROTOSPA weighs approximately 3100 pounds
How heavy are they empty?
Roto Spas weigh approximately 275 pounds when empty.
Can I put it on my deck?
Most decks can easily support the weight or be upgraded with minimal effort and expense. Don't let the weight of the RotoSpa (3000 lbs when full of water) scare you.
There are some things to condiser. The "Foot Print" of a rotospa is about 40 sq feet. (6.5'x6.5'). At 3000 lbs, spread over 40 sq feet....that's less than 100 lbs per squar foot.
Doesn't sound that heavy now does it? Prior to installing and filling your hot tub you should review the structural integrity of your deck to ensure
that it will support the weight being added.
Can I use it year round?
Yes. RotoSpas are fully insulated. They are also equiped with a "freeze protection" feater. Should heater elemet stop working for any reason, the system will automatically turn the pump on to
continuously circulate the water which will prevent freezing.
How do they maintain their temperature?
A thermostatically controlled heater maintains the water temperature. You set the temperature, approximately 100 degrees F. in the summer,
104 degrees F. in the winter, and the hot tub will maintain that temperature on it's own. ROTOSPA has a 1KW heating element in it's 110v
household plug mode. It also comes with a 4KW heating element which can be used if you wish to have it wired for 220v.
What is the warranty?
10 years on the shell, 2 years on pump and 3 years on Heater Element. Click here for the full RotoSpa Warranty
Do you provide servicing?
Yes we service RotoSpa's.
Are ROTOSPA Hot Tubs Self Cleaning?
All hot tubs require periodic checking of the water chemistry and filter rinsing. Tubs marketed as self cleaning use the same filtration system as ROTOSPA
and require exactly the same maintenance. ROTOSPA's do not develop an etched waterline like acrylic tubs. Because the material is a solid core, ROTOSPA keeps it's new appearance for years.
What makes your hot tub different from the competition?
We have determined that our competition comes from lightweight portable hot tubs and more expensive permanent hot tubs. Lightweight portable hot tubs generally are light
because they are made from a foam core with a vinyl liner and outer skins (softubs), which will eventually stretch, fade, rip and need to be replaced at your expense. These vinyl surfaces
absorb mildew and odors reducing the life of the tub. They generally lack seating and features found on more luxurious hot tubs. Not to mention, they are generally priced higher than RotoSpa's. At least here in Winnipeg!
More expensive permanent hot tubs, firstly, cost substantially more. Expect to pay two to three times as much. They require a dedicated electrical circuit and poured concrete pad to
support the weight. Expect to pay an additional $1000.00 to $2000.00 for these requirements. The electrical costs to run these hot tubs are substantially higher as is the cost of accessories and options.
In the Canadian climate they often cannot be installed in the winter months due to frost.
How much will it cost me to operate my hot tub?
Expect to pay approximately up to $15.00 per month in the summer and up to $30.00 per month in the winter.
Is the fact they are Canadian made an advantage?
Yes. We live in this climate and designed our hot tubs to withstand the demands of the elements. Many of our competors hot tubs are made in warmer
climates and shipped north. They often lack insulation and their components are not designed to meet the rigours of the Canadian climate.
