Trimmed Out the Jacuzzi w/ Mini Bar
« on: August 10, 2014, 09:35:52 pm »
I finally finished trimming out my Jacuzzi J375.  I set my tub on an elevated treated deck because of frost issues last Spring.  I then framed out a mini bar on the console side of the tub.  Many hours of trimming out the deck with a product from Menards called an over-deck, I finally finished the project.  Very happy with how it turned out, and the little bar works great for setting miscellaneous items on.  I have the bottom trim piece to put on yet to finish it off completely.  I also added 4" of insulation under the tub for added efficiency.

Budule, that's a man-made product like trex decking.  Not cheap, but it looks very nice.

 Looks nice!   But you will have to replace the framing at some point down the road, doesn't look like it's treated? Also is that a wood burning furnace in the background?

I used treated wood, Jim.  I also used the lumber as concrete forms a while ago, so it might not look like they are treated. 

Yes, that is a wood boiler in the background.  Central Boiler is the manufacturer.  I heat the house, garage, and my shop with it.  I could heat the hot tub with it, but when it get's 20 below zero, I have a hard enough time keeping the house and shop warm.

Great set-up, Mike.  Begging to be soaked in, and a great view, too.  Something tells me that wasn't going to be a straight Pepsi when the glass was full.
