« on: August 19, 2005, 04:04:23 pm »
in the winter..for all you that have had your tubs for a bit now..How high do you all normally go in the winter time?

I was thinking about this..right now if I go any higher than 99 I'm toasted within 15 min..can't even make it for 15 min at 100...so I was kinda thinking on what temp to keep it in the winter time...so...amuse me gang!

96 in summer--it usually hovers around 97-99
99 in winter--it's always 99 then...... 8)

102 in the summer.
102 in the winter.

When my spa was new, I kept it at 98 in summer and 100 in winter.  Now I can't bear the thought of less than 102.

Mine will be cranked to the max.  I'm a southern gal and I don't like the cold.

Mine never goes below 102, and that's in Florida, where the heat index makes it feel like 106 all Summer.  It is a hot tub and should be hot.

  We're just under a month into ours so no winter experience yet, but we run at 101 now and plan on 103 when the snow flies.   paul

102 in the summer but on hot days it creeps up to 104-105.  On cool nights we like 104.  You get use to it be real hot after you had your tub a while.  The hotter the better .It  helps the aches and pains.

keep heater at 99 so that means 101-102 in the summer. keep it at 102-103 in the winter.
i must agree with earlier post. for a cool refreshing dip, get in the pool. a hot tub should be hot.....

I don't have a pool or even room for a pool. ;D
I've been keeping mine at 91. It's refreshing.  I plan for the winter time to have it up to 101.
