Texas winters can be unpredictable. Only in Texas can you wear a t-shirt on Christmas morning one year and have a bit of frigid snow the next winter. It’s just part of the joys of living in this great state. Unpredictable winter weather aside, don’t let the cold season keep you from using your hot tub! In fact, winter is a great time for spa use. Here are 9 ways to enjoy your Hot Spring® spa this winter.
Add Company
Winter weather puts a chill in the air, but loved ones melt it all away. This winter, be certain to invite over your friends and family to enjoy time in your Hot Spring hot tub alongside you.
Keep a Lid on It
Taking a soak in that soothing, warm water is every hot tub owner’s dream. The best way to bring your water up to the ideal temperature? Keep your hot tub cover on when you aren’t using it. This will maximize energy efficiency, allowing you to enjoy your prime soaking temp anytime you want.
Add Fun Winter Wear
With Texas winter temperatures dipping low in the winter, having clothes to wear to and from the spa is a useful idea. So, why not choose fun winter wear? Luxurious robes, fluffy knit hats, and cozy footwear are not only practical but make the cool night soaks all the more enjoyable.
Plan Ahead for Exiting
Before you enter your Hot Spring hot tub, think through what you will need when you are ready to leave. When the air is chilly you won’t want to spend unnecessary time searching for things while wet. So, plan ahead by setting out your towel and any other accessories you’d like.
Enjoy Warm Treats
Make winter hot tub use all the more delightful with delicious winter treats. Toast to an enjoyable evening with hot cocoa or freshly brewed hot tea.
Hydrate Well
Winter weather is notorious for drying skin. Additionally, when regularly using your spa, it is advised to stay well hydrated to avoid further dry skin or discomfort. Drink plenty of water and use moisturizer after you exit your spa to prevent any issue when using your hot tub.
Exercise
If you want to stay fit this winter, you can use your hot tub to make working out all the more fun. Hot tub exercises can include deep stretches, core movement, and low-impact cardio.
Unwind
Texas winter days are short with the sun setting early in the evening. Shorter days can feel tense and unproductive. Use your Hot Spring spa to combat the winter blues by using it to decompress and destress. Even just 10-15 minutes of intentional unwinding in your hot tub can make a noticeable difference in mood and perspective.
Follow Winter Care
Taking proper care of your hot tub in the winter will protect your spa from damage and prevent costly energy usage. A spa cover is designed to do just that, so make good use of it. If your spa cover is damaged and in need of replacing, we will help find a suitable spa replacement cover. You may also consider a spa cover lifter for ease in lifting your cover on and off.
