How long do you usually stay in the spa and at what temp. We have had our jetsetter since thursday the 2nd and we have been in it every night at least an hour. 15 min. jets and 45 min soak. Just got to love tubbin.

Ialways  recommend atleast 30 minutes at a moderate temp. from my research I have come to learn that in 30 min. is when the fluid in your joints starts to return and the therapy in your joints then begins.too long in too high temps can lead to danger.Also please refrain from alchohol in the tub,(you could spill it) no really it will sneak up on you and you could easily and quickly pass out. ;)

Time depends on temp. Water temp and air temp.

I can stay in 104 for 30 minutes if it is near zero air temp.  But if its above 50F, I can't stay in 104 for more than 20 minutes.  At 80F air, its hard to stay in more than 20 minutes at 102.   If your upper body can cool, you can stay in warmer water longer.
