For those that do not want to spend the thousands of dollars on a traditional hot tub, there are now inflatable hot tubs that are made of long lasting materials but are at a fraction of the price.Each of the inflatable hot tubs are self contained units that allow the hot tub to be moved from place to place if the individual decides to do so. These portable hot tubs can also be found mounted onto trailers so that they can be rented out to various functions so that the individuals can mount the trailer platform and utilize the spa. Each hot tub usually ranges from as cheap as eight hundred dollars to as expensive as six thousand dollars depending on the quality of the materials used and the amount of accessories that come with it.

Types

Most of the inflatable hot tubs will fit about four adults in the tub. They are usually made of soft materials that mimic leather so that sitting in the tub is a comfortable and relaxing experience. The motor for the heater comes with the tub and the water treatment kit usually comes with it as well so that the individual has all that he needs to get up and running with his portable hot tub experience. There are some inflatable hot tubs that have some other accessories and features not found on the cheaper versions. For instance, some come with steps to make it easy to get into the tub. Others come with built in waterfalls or water color change devices to make the spa as exotic as possible.

Portable Hot Tubs

There are some portable hot tubs that do not even run on electricity. For instance, there is a wood burning hot tub which heats up the water though the wood burning coils that comes with it. The water does not have to be heated before being placed into the tub. The coils naturally circulate the water through the tub so that it is constantly being put back through. The basket that holds the firewood can be raised or lowered to adjust the temperature of the tub during its use. This type of portable hot tub, although cost efficient once it has been bought, is very expensive to begin with, costing around five thousand dollars for this hand made tub which should last a lifetime.

Although these portable wooden hot tubs are great options the big advantage of the inflatable hot tub is of course the price and flexibility that comes with it. In my opinion they are pretty unbeatable and if the popularity of them is anything to go by then everyone seems to agree.
