Unlocking lifestyle – how much does a spa cost to run?

The cost of a spa is only half the picture – what does it cost to run? Here, HotSpring provides an experienced word up on what to look for and what to avoid

What are the running costs to consider when buying a spa pool? 

In some ways this question is more important than ‘how much does a spa pool cost to buy?’, because if you choose the wrong model, you could be facing high power, water and chemical bills for years to come.

It’s easy to get drawn in by tempting spa pools deals but it’s important to factor in the long-term costs to make sure you don’t get stung – because cheap spa could be much more expensive to run. 

You’ll often hear sales people say, “It’ll cost a dollar a day,” but if they can’t back this up you could be in for an unpleasant surprise with your first power bill.

An informed perspective.

According to Power Compare, the average power consumption of a medium-sized New Zealand household is around 8500 kWh per year, which equals and average power bill of $2200 in Auckland and up to $2350 in Christchurch. 

You want to ensure your choice of spa pool doesn’t blow that figure sky-high.

There are many points to consider – pool insulation, energy efficiency, pumps, jets, covers – all these things need considering, arriving at the right spa for you, your family and, equally important, your budget.

Find out what to look for in terms of running costs in the full Hot Spring blog here.
