Jacuzzi prices outdoor
- Minimum: $3, 500
- Maximum: $8, 000
There are many things that affect the price of a Jacuzzi such as the brand, size and type. On average, the installation cost usually runs between $3, 500 to $8, 000. Due to the labor that is involved in installing an outdoor Jacuzzi, most contractors charge around $85 an hour. This hourly rate doesn't include materials.
The cost of a Jacuzzi also increases depending on the extras that the homeowner requests. For example, all Jacuzzi tubs need a cover to not only keep debris out, but also to hold in the heat when the Jacuzzi is not in use. This helps cut down on energy costs. However, covers usually don't come standard with most Jacuzzis. The cover and cover helper, which is used to help lift the cover, usually run about $200. The homeowner can also expect his power bill to increase by $1 to $3 a day to keep the Jacuzzi heated.
Other extra costs may include running electrical ground wires, a DC converter for the Jacuzzi motor, a GFCI breaker connecting to the circuit and a continuous bond wire that runs from the Jacuzzi to the service panel. Homeowners should also make sure that their Jacuzzis come with the first batch of cleaning solutions and chemicals. These are things the homeowners have to buy anyway, but it's nice when the first batch is included in the initial investment.
Materials
Most Jacuzzis have interior shells that are acrylic. Both inexpensive and expensive Jacuzzis are made using acrylic shells. Others are made from materials such as wood; the most common wood used is red wood cedar. Jacuzzis with wood interior shells usually cost more and don't last as long as the those made out of acrylic. It is usually easier for manufacturers to work in more jets and other special features, such as speakers and radios, in acrylic Jacuzzis.
Types
Jacuzzi prices are not only based on the material used, but the type as well. One type of Jacuzzi that homeowners can consider is a whirlpool tub. This type of Jacuzzi forces both water and air through pressure jets. This not only makes the water bubble, but also gives the owner a deep-tissue massage. Another type is air bath whirlpool, which allows air to flow through the water, creating hydrotherapy benefits. One popular Jacuzzi type is a stream shower tub. This offers all of the benefits of a traditional Jacuzzi but also has the added benefit of a pulsating stream of water that typically rains down on the owner like a shower. There is also a space-saving Jacuzzi, which is just smaller in size. These types are usually placed in the ground to save even more space.
