Can I use a spa pool all year round?

No matter the time of year, jumping into your spa pool for a relaxing soak is a difficult luxury to top. If you’re one of those people who tends to wait for warmer nights to get in the spa, you might be missing some great opportunities. We have put this article together to educate our customers on the various ways spa pools can be enjoyed through every season of the year.

  • Using your Spa Pool in Summer

    It’s hard to beat a picturesque summer evening soaking in your spa pool. Vibrant shades of red and orange taking over the vast blue skyline while the sun sets on the horizon. Consider sharing this scene with some friends, or use it as an opportunity to reconnect with someone special. If you’re hosting a social gathering, giving guests the option of having a relaxing soak while they sip a beverage will get you some serious brownie points. However, many people overlook the option of turning your spa pool into a cool-down zone during particularly hot summer days. Easily achievable by changing the temperature setting on your spa pool’s control panel, a cool body of water is an excellent place to warm down after some exercise, or during a sauna intermission.

  • Using your Spa Pool in Autumn

    Being outdoors, toasty and comfortable in your spa pool is the perfect place to appreciate Autumn’s beautiful colour scheme. Let your spa’s jets get to work, massaging your muscles into vitality as you watch the leaves fall from the sky. Autumn is also a great season to spot some wildlife without an abundance of foliage in your way, so make sure the binoculars aren’t far out of reach! On the other hand, you might bring a book and get lost in a spellbinding story.

  • Using your Spa Pool in Winter

    Some spa pool owners reach for their covers as soon winter arrives, simply not willing to endure the elements on their way in and out of the pool. For other users, Winter is the season where their spa pool gets the most use. If you’re not part of the latter group, there are a few easy ways to make your spa more appealing and inviting, even on the coldest nights of the year. Small accessories like heat lamps, a heated towel rack, or even having bathrobes at the ready can make the process of leaving your luxuriously warm water much more tolerable. Winter is also the season where conditions like arthritis can be exasperated through the cold climate. Soaking in the spa is an excellent way to combat sore joints and muscles, while also increasing the circulation of nutrient-rich blood through the body.

  • Using your Spa Pool in Spring

    Slipping into your spa pool among the flora coming into full bloom can be a beautiful time of year to enjoy your warm water’s soothing effects, as well as the serenity of your surroundings. It can also be a helpful tool to restore your wellness routine as you head back into the routinely busy summer season. You might look to jump in the spa for a warm-down amongst cool air after some early-morning exercise. Alternatively, you can embrace the cool spring air as you appreciate the allure of our stars while soaking the day away in luxurious comfort.
