The dimensions of a hot tub are usually expressed in length, width, and height. For a 6-person hot tub, the general size range is as follows: ● Length: about 80 to 90 inches (203 to 229 cm) ● Width: about 80 to 90 inches (203 to 229 cm) ● Height: about 34 to 38 inches (86 to 97 cm)
The design and use characteristics of hot tubs make them an ideal environment for the growth of Legionella. Legionella grows most vigorously in the temperature range of 25-45 degrees Celsius, and the water temperature in hot tubs is usually within this range.
First of all, from a technical point of view, hot tubs can be placed outdoors. Many hot tubs are designed with outdoor use in mind and have waterproof, windproof and weatherproof properties.
