I'm sure I'll be Ok with my deck and the hot tub and all, but.......I figured I'd ask anyways. The Jetsetter is coming on Friday 07-14-06 and it's going on the deck. When I built my deck, I knew I would one day get a hot tub so I beefed it up. I've got doubled 2X8's X 14, 16" O.C. with joist hangers. Underneath the 2x8's I have two 2X10's attached to 4X4 posts with 2 carraige bolts holding the 2X10's to the 4X4's. This is a floating deck and it sits on some concrete pads which I think are 8X12X4. On the the side that the tub will sit on, I ran a 2X8 at the end underneath the doubled 2X8's that connect to the rim/end joist, if that makes sense. So, if you've followed me this far, you should be able to agree that I'm good to go. I'm just wondering if 2 carriage bolts are enough at each 4X4?
I think the jetsetter weighs around 2800 lbs filled and occupied.
