Can any pool type accommodate a hot tub addition?

Various pool types can support hot tub additions, though installation methods will differ. Concrete pools provide the most flexibility for integrated designs, while vinyl and fiberglass pools may require specific approaches to maintain their structural integrity. Aboveground hot tubs offer versatile solutions for any pool type, as they don't require integration with existing pool systems. Consulting a pro is essential to determine the most appropriate installation method for your specific situation.

Are luxury features worth the extra cost?

The value of premium features depends entirely on your preferences. High-end jet systems, advanced control panels, and enhanced insulation can improve your experience and potentially reduce operating costs through better energy efficiency. However, these upgrades substantially increase your initial investment. Consider how frequently you'll use your hot tub and which features will genuinely enhance your experience before committing to luxury options.

Does installing a hot tub impact my utility bills long-term?

A hot tub addition increases monthly electricity costs by $20 to $50. Factors affecting this include your climate, usage frequency, temperature settings, and insulation quality. Consistently using an insulated cover, maintaining lower temperatures when the hot tub is not in use, and selecting energy-efficient models can help minimize ongoing expenses. Regular maintenance also ensures systems operate at peak efficiency, preventing unnecessary energy consumption.

What is the difference between a hot tub and a spa?

While these terms are often used interchangeably, they traditionally refer to different installations. A hot tub describes a self-contained unit with its own heating and filtration systems, while a spa refers to an in-ground feature integrated with a pool's circulation system. Spas share water treatment systems with the connected pool and are constructed from matching materials. This distinction helps explain why in-ground spas cost more to install but may be more economical to operate when combined with pool systems.

We use an acrylic urethane coating along with a proprietary MM4 bonding agent to refinish your surfaces to any custom color or one of our 27 Natural Accent colors available.

"The person that did the work was careful and efficient. We are very happy with the end result. It looks like new. The odor from the coating was pretty strong and took a few days to clear from our bathroom because the bathroom does not have a window that opens If we had been able to open a window in the bathroom the odor would probably have dissipated faster."

"They did a terrible job. My shower pan was very very gritty and it should have been smooth. They did it twice and it was still gritty. They said they had no idea why. They blamed me by saying that I should not have sanded the pan. I used 400 grit sandpaper on the ridges of the floor. I could not sand in between the ridges. They used 120 grit sandpaper to sand in between the ridges. After they sprayed the pan you could see and feel a very gritty look on the floor. They blamed me by saying you should never sand fiber glass. Ha Ha, they sanded with course sand paper and blamed me for using 400 grit. The next day they scraped off all of the gritty paint, sanded it again, and sprayed it again. Still the same results. I paid them but I feel ripped off. They are so called experts at this and worked hard to say it was my fault. I really wanted to figure out the problem, but they had no clue. Maybe it was this and maybe it was that. Experts?? I would say not."

COMPLETE POOL SERVICE WHERE ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SWIM . At the age of 15, I was hired by Pacific Pools of Columbus, Ohio to help clean swimming pools. Very quickly word got around and in no time, I was cleaning and repairing several pools in the area. By the time I was in my early 20's, I was maintaning 44 pools a week and had serviced virtually every type of pool, spa, and backyard concievable. I worked as a maintenance/repair technician for a decade and began to take on larger projects such as pool remodeling, which I find very fulfilling. I believe I get the opportunity every day to take something outdated and run down and give it new life, creating something stunning It wasn't until about 20 years ago that I felt my knowledge in the field was then adequate to begin designing and constructing new swimming pools, spas, and water features. I believe that to create something on that scale you should understand all angles and aspects of the industry. Because of the many years I cleaned pools, everything I design and build is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also low maintenance and user friendly. Not only do I strive to build a high quality product, but I strive to give high quality customer service. It is a specific goal of mine to listen to my customers and give them what they want: a unique backyard oasis, a place of fun and gathering. I love to get to know the people and the families that I work for, and I want my customers to feel like they have a friend in their "pool man". I feel I have been successful in that endeavor and my list of referrals is ever-growing. Additional website www.marzettipool.com

"I have been wanting a pool for a long time and finally I got the husband's approval. We saved and interviewed pool company's for more than a year we finally decided on Marzetti swimming pools kash came out and brought a crew of guys and put in a swimming pool I could only have dreamed of we were so thankful of his knowledge kash never strayed he stuck with us building our swimming pool from start to finish most pool companies have three or four pools going on He made sure to schedule us and only us building our swimming pool. At that time we asked for salt water and an automatic cover. And that's what we got . Thanks kash for all the hard work"
