08719844416The expenses associated with operating a Lay-Z-Spa hot tub can vary greatly depending on the user and their specific usage habits. In fact, using your Lay-Z-Spa only on weekends could be more affordable than ordering a couple of Starbucks.
It's crucial to recognize that each Lay-Z-Spa owner's experience will differ, with multiple factors impacting the overall running costs. These factors can range from the size and water capacity of the Lay-Z-Spa, its location (sheltered or exposed), how often it's used, fluctuations in outdoor temperatures, and differing energy tariffs.
Given these variables, the following running cost estimates serve merely as a guide, calculated based on current average energy prices.
