Having an outdoor hot tub is a desire of many people. Besides adding real value to the home or apartment, an outdoor hot tub adds well-being and quality of life to its users. In the summer or winter, it is essential to have spaces and structures that guarantee leisure and relaxation moments. The installation of an outdoor hot tub is also a more viable alternative than building a pool and requires a smaller area. Still, both can live together entirely since one of the bath’s function is to provide moments of relaxation and massage.
There are hot tubs in many sizes, from small units to larger ones designed to accommodate a dozen people. In addition to containing hot water, they project massaging water jets. Used to relax, get a massage, socialize and use as hydrotherapy on aching muscles and joints, they are most commonly installed outside, and the danger lies in not providing hot tub shelters for it. With different features between the gazebos for sale in the market, it will preserve your investment, making your life safer and add style to your hot tub area.
So, if you’re taking care of a knee problem or have a headache after a stressful day at work, getting into a hot tub at the end of the day can be a dream come true. In order not to turn this dream into a nightmare, be aware of the potential risks of using an outside hot tub, and be sure to avoid them.
THE RISKS
1 – FALLS – One of the risks posed to the people who use them is its sides, which can be very smooth and easy to slip. The dew will turn the hot tub surface wet during the night, even when it is covered. If you fall into the hot tub instead of on the floor outside, you are at risk of drowning. If the fall happens outside because of a slippy floor can be harmful as well. The solution? Get a spa cover for your tub. The 12 x 14 gazebos are very popular and can be customized to fit any backyard.
One of the Westview Gazebos that will definitely protect you from this first risk is the Aspen Gazebo.
The most popular 12×14 gazebo we have is the Aspen Collection — an earth tone themed with terracotta walls to accentuate your rustic backyard interior and give off a warm, sentimental vibe.

Features that we love: Uses Ultrawood, duraflex PC skylight roofing, six sliding tempered glass door windows, optional privacy screens, and will avoid any slips and falls protecting you or loved ones around the hot tub.
2 – ELECTROCUTION – The electrical part of the hot tub comfort is a point of attention, mainly because it is a humid environment. From dryers, flat irons, and different appliances that can make your hot tub area more convenient, the combination of electricity with water is a fertile ground for accidents with profound consequences. Use a mini-fridge that is uncovered outside as a support for your drink; for example, while you are barefoot, ready to get in the hot tub, is not a good idea. If a wire gets exposed for any motive or a storm happened in the night before, it can make the wet floor around your hot tub a dangerous conductor of electricity. Are you using your hot tube during storms or heavy rains? Don’t even think about it! Our suggestion is to get a Studio 31 Gazebo swim spa cover.
Studio 31 is a multi-purpose Backyard Studio that is maintenance-free, made of Ultrawood, which looks and feels like wood but is made of durable eco-friendly synthetic composite material.

3 – CHILDREN ACCIDENTS
In homes with children, the care around hot tubs needs to be more critical. Open hot tubs accessible to children can cause accidents as bad as with big pools. An adult should always be around supervising kids when close to a hot tub. The little ones can climb on it to play, and depending on the age and swim habilities, this act can be fatal.
When you have in place a gazebo with closed doors, this danger can be one hundred percent removed.
