By choosing a hot tub made by a reputable manufacturer, you can be confident that you are making a wise investment that will provide you with years of relaxation and enjoyment.
- Quality: Reputable manufacturers have a reputation to uphold, which means they are more likely to use high-quality materials and adhere to strict manufacturing standards.

- Customer service: Established companies typically have a dedicated customer service team that can answer any questions you may have and provide support if needed.

Why choose a Jacuzzi® Hot Tub?
-
The Jacuzzi brothers founded the hot tub industry in the 1950s.
The Jacuzzi brothers devised a hydrotherapy pump to aid a family member suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. Later, they created the first fully integrated whirlpool tub and established Jacuzzi, Inc. Today, Jacuzzi® hot tubs are recognised for their cutting-edge design and technology.
The most recent Jacuzzi® hot tub developments include voice-activated controls, improved water filtration systems, and energy-efficient designs. In addition, new massage jets and seating arrangements have been devised to enhance the entire relaxing experience.

What should I consider when buying a hot tub?
-
When buying a hot tub, think about important factors such as the materials used, energy efficiency, maintenance requirements, and warranty coverage. It’s also essential to consider your budget and the installation location, including size, seating capacity, and desired features.
-
Where should I locate my hot tub?
-
When selecting a spot for your hot tub, consider privacy, accessibility, and convenience. Choose a flat, level surface that can support the hot tub’s weight and is near a power source. Also, think about the view and how close it is to your home. Make sure there’s enough space around the hot tub for maintenance and cleaning.
-
Do you offer a site survey?
-
Yes, we do! Once you decide to buy a hot tub from Outback 365, we can arrange for one of our installation experts to visit your property. They’ll assess the best delivery options and access routes to make sure everything goes smoothly.
If you’re unsure about where to place your hot tub, whether in your garden, on a patio, or decking, the site survey can help with that too. We’ll check if extra support is needed, especially if you’re thinking about sinking your tub into decking or patio areas. Plus, we can advise on other products like pergolas or hot tub enclosures that might complement your setup.
Our goal is to make the whole process hassle-free and ensure you get the best possible experience with your new hot tub.
-
What access do you require for hot tub delivery?
-
Access requirements can vary depending on your hot tub model and delivery location. Generally, we need a clear path at least 1 metre wide and a minimum of 2.5 metres overhead clearance to safely deliver your hot tub down side access to your home.
For more challenging installations, we often use crane services to prevent any damage to your hot tub, property, or our delivery team. We also have several clever methods to manoeuvre hot tubs in tricky spots. If you suspect your installation might be difficult, please get in touch – our installation team loves a good challenge!
-
What electricity supply do I need for my hot tub?
-
It is recommended that all electrical work undertaken in preparation for your new hot tub should be carried out by a suitably qualified electrician.
Depending on what hot tub you have purchased you will require either a 16/32 AMP supply. This supply should be run from a separate RCD breaker using a suitable single phase three core cable to an IP65 rotary switch which should be located close to the hot tub and no further than 2m away. There needs to be enough wire left to take to the location of the hot tub and a further 2 metres for the installation team to directly wire into the hot tub. Your electrician should be able to sort out this requirement and we can speak with them directly if they require any further clarification.
-
How long after the hot tub is delivered can I use it?
-
We know it’s hard to wait, but after your hot tub is delivered, it needs about 12 hours to warm up to the perfect temperature. We also use a stronger dose of sanitiser at the start to make sure any bacteria in the plumbing is completely cleared out. That way, when you step in for your first soak, everything will be fresh, clean, and ready to relax you.
Waiting just a little longer means your soak will be safer and more comfortable – we promise it will be worth it!
-
How much maintenance is required for a hot tub and how long does it take?
-
Your hot tub will start to form a pattern based on how often you use it. For general usage we would estimate around 20 minutes a week to check water condition and add chemicals as required. Half an hour a month to thoroughly clean the filter(s) and 2 hours every 3 months to empty and refill.
-
Do you provide hot tub aftercare support?
-
Absolutely. After you have your hot tub installed, our Aftercare Service merely begins. It is vital to us at Outback 365 that you continue to enjoy your hot tub to the fullest. Aftercare is essential since it guarantees that any problems or maintenance requirements are addressed quickly and effectively.

How much room should I allow for my hot tub for steps and the cover lifter?
-
When planning the installation of your hot tub, it’s important to allow adequate space for both steps and a cover lifter. We recommend leaving at least 60 – 70 cm of clearance around the hot tub to accommodate steps for easy entry and exit. Additionally, you should allocate an extra 30 – 60 cm behind the hot tub for the cover lifter to function properly and ensure that the cover can be opened and closed without obstruction. This space will enhance your overall experience and make maintenance easier. If you have any questions about specific models, feel free to contact our team for guidance!
