Hot tub prices can be very confusing. When evaluating hot tub cost, one should consider what is included in the price. Details such as freight, backyard delivery, cover, cover lift assist mechanism, steps, starter kit, ozone, UV, and other things are typically not included when you see a price online. These items can change the hot tub price significantly. At Colorado Custom Spas, prices for a new spa start at around $5k (in 2026), and go up from there. Size, number of pumps, quality of jets, and general build quality tend to have the largest effect on price.
Another thing to factor in is our award winning service and support. Should you have any questions or require warranty service, you can call or text us 7 days a week. We pride ourselves on offering the best after-sale care and support in Colorado. We’ve invested heavily in the people, processes, and systems to ensure amazing customer service. Our online reviews are a testament to this fact.
There is no such thing as a chemical free hot tub, however, there are ways to reduce the amount of chemicals to a level to that is gentle on skin and eyes. Colorado Custom Spas prioritizes training our staff on all of the latest water treatment systems. We do extensive, in-house testing before selling any product or system. Our management team has a combined 100 years of experience. We offer a variety of water treatment solutions from saltwater hot tubs to mineral systems, ozone, AOP spas and enzymes. No matter your needs, we have a water treatment program for you.
Hot tub energy consumption is affected by a variety of factors, including cost per kWh of electricity, weather, exposure to sun and wind, filtration cycle settings, temperature setting, quality of cover, and, most importantly, the way in which a hot tub is insulated. The best insulation method for heat retention is the use of full foam. Perimeter insulation can get close if done properly, but full-foam is typically the most efficient. Generally speaking, along the front range, an efficient hot tub will use between 9 and 18 kWh/day. Your price paid per kWh will determine operating cost. Every brand that we sell, including Bullfrog Spas and Wellis hot tubs are designed to be energy efficient, even in the mountains of Colorado.
All hot tubs require a flat and level surface that uniformly supports the hot tub across the entire base. In addition to concrete, other suitable foundations include wood decking, pavers, and even gravel. A concrete pad should be at least 4” thick and reinforced. If you are unsure about your surface, let us know. We are happy to help guide you through the process. Even if your concrete isn’t level, we can provide solutions that won’t break the bank.
Most hot tubs require a 220V power supply at 50 amps. Some spas may require 60. Additionally, there are 110V plug and play hot tub models available. It’s important to note that, while plug and play hot tubs have their own set of perks, most 110V spas do not allow for the heater and the high-speed jets to operate simultaneously. We partner with Harmony electric for many of our installations.

NEVER use pool chemicals on a hot-tub without consulting a professional first, using unapproved products can cause damage to your hot tub
Hot tubs are heavy and difficult to move. Most hot tub movers use specialized equipment or dollies, along with several strong backs! The good news is that we can take care of that for you, and pricing isn’t as bad as you may think. For local moves that aren’t complicated, pricing starts around $500.
Most hot tubs have a drain valve that can be attached to a garden hose for draining. We recommend the use of a submersible pump. This will speed up the process significantly.
Most hot tubs get tilted on their side and are pushed on a sled or dolly. We use raw man power to get these back, and we are not able to lift over fencing as hot tubs are extremely heavy. See our video here showing examples and everything you should expect on delivery day when purchasing from Colorado Custom Spas.

A well cared for hot tub, from a quality manufacturer can last 20 years or longer. In fact we have customers that purchased over 25 years ago and are still in operation. Most clients find themselves upgrading to newer features and sizing because they want to, not because their old spa died prematurely.
The short answer is yes, but you want to make sure to factor in access for potential service down the road. We specialize in this type of hot tub installation. One of our brands, Bullfrog Spas, is uniquely suited to this application. Their synthetic frame is designed to withstand the potential corrosion or rotting metal/wood frames experience below ground. Bullfrog’s patented JetPak system significantly reduces potential leak points, the difficult repair of which is amplified when installed below ground.

There are a variety of factors that affect the final price of a swim spa, including delivery location, access, features, options, accessories and more. Generally speaking, Swim Spas start in the low $20k range and go up to more than $50k. Don’t fall for deceptive price tactics online. Often when you see a price for a swim spa or hot tub online, it doesn’t include freight, cover, delivery, or any other necessary extras.
Absolutely! That’s one of the many benefits of a swim spa over a traditional pool. A well insulated swim spa can easily maintain temperatures of up to 104 degrees, in even the coldest of months.
Yes, most hot tubs come with a manufacturer’s warranty. These typically range from 1 to 5 years on the major components. More reputable manufacturers will have longer warranties that fully cover parts and labor. Be sure to read the fine print. Some manufacturers list deceptive warranty lengths. They will often prorate coverage, exclude labor, or have other unusual exclusions.
If you purchased your spa from us, you can call or text (303) HOT-TUBS 7 days a week. At Colorado Custom Spas, we have a dedicated warranty and service team. We stock most parts and are available to assist every day of the week. Our award-winning hot tub service team is a big part of why we are so successful.
Generally speaking, you should call the place at which you purchased your spa. Online or big box store hot tub purchases often require you to call the manufacturer directly, with limited hours during the week. You will then wait while they attempt to hire an independent local technician to service your spa. Those independent technicians can’t possibly stock all of the necessary parts, so expect delays for shipping.
The foam cores of a hot tub cover can absorb water over time and become heavy. There is a plastic vapor barrier to prevent this, but it can fail over time. To extend the life of your cover, it is advisable to leave the cover open for 20 minutes after adding any product in order to allow chemicals to off-gas. Additionally, low Ph can contribute to this degradation. Should you be in need of a replacement cover, let us know. We have a factory that custom makes covers to our specifications. We can also provide OEM replacement options.
