installation ideas

[taraka]

Does anyone have a suggestion of either a book with photos or a web site that will give photos of ideas for installation of a hot tub?  ie:  patio, arbors, surrounding decking, etc.

Pool and Spa Magazine might be a good source.

Poolandspa.com has a lot of pictures.  Also check the major manufacturers web sites.  I know the sundance and hotspring web sites have installation pictures.  Rhtubs.com has pictures of traditional wooden hot tub installs.

How about others here post pics of their installs, I would love to see!

What a good idea! I would love to read suggestions (or see pictures) of how and where people have situated their hot tubs, and how they have blended them in with their yards.

I too would love a data base that showed "real" tubs in "real" home settings.  Both my Jacuzzi and Sundance dealer had several photo albums of tubs installed locally, I liked looking thru them.  I also googled *hot tub backyard deck photos* and got several images.

I have posted my photos recently in another post, but here is the final product from my install:

Most major manufacturer's web sites have a gallery of ideas. Start here:

Onmedic what did you use to seal your deck?

[OnMedic]

countryboy,

I haven't sealed it, and won't. We will be staining it with Cabot Austrialian Timber Oil, but I have learned that you don't seal it because you want cedar to breath!

ok, so the shine is just that the wood is wet?

[OnMedic]

Yup, just finished construction and cleaned it off and took pics.
