Choosing Hot Tub Steps
If your hot tub is low to the ground you may require only a single step to be able to access the spa. If your spa is higher you may require a double or even a triple step for easy access. You might also consider a single step that has a 12 inch rise.
The doubles and triples are used for tubs that higher walls or interiors that are deeper. When installing steps make sure you take into consideration the size of all of the people that will be using your spa. Little family members will require more aid than tall adults.
Steps are available made from many different materials such as cedar, redwood, aluminum, or molded plastic or acrylic. You can even have custom steps made if needed and you can have steps painted to match your spa.
Whats really important is making sure that your steps are waterproof if they are wood and slip resistant no matter what material they are made from.
Some of the newer steps are very innovative including storage underneath the steps. This is a great place to store drink glasses, tanning lotions, towels, goggles, and anything else. You pay a little more for that storage but it is worth every dime!
What is most important is safety. Safety of your guests getting in and out of the hot tub with wet feet. Safety for both your little guests and big guests.
If you are a bit of handyman you might even decide to build your own steps. You can probably build them for a fraction of the cost but again remember it is very important to ensure they have a proper finish to ensure no one will slip.
Your steps should not only be functional they should also be aesthetically pleasing and compliment the look of your hot tub. Shopping online for hot tub steps gives you the best selection options and you can also save a great deal of money.
