That's the point, you can't schedule them to heat up 4hrs before you get home, because that's not enough time for them to go from ambient to "hot" unless you live where it's 98 outside year round. If this was outside and it was 50, it'd be 54 when you wanted to go in.

Hence, you leave them running all the time.

These take probably an hour or so to go up one degree, so typically you would let them run on constantly. If you turn it off, it will takes many hours (sometimes days) to get back up where you want it to. May be knowing that will make you reconsider wanting a remote for it, I don't know.

Just got this yesterday. It's noticeably larger than our 4-6 person one. I think it holds about 90 gallons more water and it definitely feels more spacious. Easily 3 adults comfortably. Two adults and two kids comfortable as well.

I have a Saluspa version (77 inches), and it also has a timer that you can set to heat up to 104 degrees (provided you are running the heater/filter 24/7). I have tried both ways, leaving it set at 104 degrees or it at 98-100 degrees with the timer set to warm to 104 degrees 4-6 hours before I get in, and both seem to cost the same a month, about 50-75$ dollars in electricity. This is running it from September to December outside and covered, with temps getting as low as 32 degrees, so your location may be ymmv.

I watched a pile of YouTube videos. There's a dude in Canada that just put a layer of r-10 foam under it, and a layer on top, and it draws 400watts per hour OUTSIDE. We're going to insulate the same way, but mines going in the basement over the winter, and outside on the deck in the summer.

Quote from g10ny :
I don't own this, just the smaller one, all I can do is run some numbers. Assuming the surface area and also volume of water is double (as height stays the same) you will incur double the loss of heat on the surface as well as have to heat up a double amount of water. Bottom line, all else equal (temperatures you are running it on, insulating properties of the outer wall, floor and cover), this will incur double the costs compared to the smaller model.
Surface area is not double though.

You are correct. This has 85.04'' diameter, the other model has diameter of 71''.
area being proportional to the square of the diameter, (85.04/71)^2=1.43, so the difference between the two is 43%.
As the volume of the water cylinder is the area times height, for this is 27.95, the other's being 26, total volume ratio is 1.54, so a difference of 54%.

Again correct, the OP has overestimated the doubling of the volume. Also, the costs don't double, but add a ~40-50%.

Are you worried about it getting a leak if you put it in your basement? I like the idea, but worried about all the water running out.

Basement?? What about all the water vapor and humidity it would generate…?

It's an unfinished cement floor with drains and a sump pump. If anything, it'll help my heat exchanger on my heat pump water heater 😂.

This is quite large compared to the smaller spas. We bought this as our fourth unit for it's size. We only run it from october to april. We never turn it off. it took two days for the 58 degree spring water to get to 104. It stays at 104. We put puzzle mats under it, even though it is not necessary. We are not level where we have it, but it is covered where we have it placed. I keep two old comforters on top and this is doing an amazing job. This is why we chose to have it under cover. We do not have to add water very often to this, so I am not sure it will put a ton of extra moisture into your house, for those that are pondering whether to keep it indoors or not. The only time moisture escapes is when it is uncovered, plus our house is so dry in the winter anyways. Walmart will not match price for this from a purchase two weeks ago. I will order another and return it to get the price reduced. Kind of bogus, but we absolutely love these hot tubs and have told many people about them. Thanks to the OP for this!!!

I assume this isn't something we should be running in a very cold climate? We live near Cleveland and temps get in the teens and below. Would this survive a winter like that or not worthwhile for that?

From what I've seen in reviews these work well into the 20's for sure, just draw a ton of electricity unless you insulate them a little better with polystyrene underneath and on top. A guy on YouTube in Canada insulated his and uses 9kw a day ~$1.50 but I've also heard of people who use them a ton and don't insulate can see $75-$100 increase in their electric bills.

5-7 people? Are you kidding? My 8' x 14' Swim Spa doesn't comfortably hold 5-7 people.

Contrary to popular belief if you're going to say run this say Friday/Sat/Sun it's not cheaper to keep it on the entire time. Just turn it on Thursday and off Sunday.

Can this be used indoors? In the living room, for example.
