How long do spa packs last?
A Spa Pack is an integrated unit that contains the spa pump, heater, blower and controls. On average, a spa pack will last around 10 years, before one or more components begins to fail, or give you regular trouble. Replacing your Spa Pak can be a quick and simple affair. Essentially, a spa’s life span is based on a combination of two factors – spa quality and spa care. A hot tub can last anywhere from 5-20 years or more. Cheaper hot tubs made with lower quality materials won’t last long. If those hot tubs are not well maintained, they may not last more than 5 years.
How do I choose a spa?
Research the qualifications and credentials of the spa’s staff, including massage therapists, estheticians, and wellness practitioners. Look for spas that employ licensed professionals with extensive training and experience in their respective fields to ensure that you receive safe and effective treatments. The most common spa treatments are massages, manicures/pedicures and facials. However, you might also see offered such treatments as a body scrub/exfoliation, a fingers or toes file & polish (like a mini manicure or pedicure) or a scalp massage.
