Step it up!
For safe and easy access into your hot tub, especially if it is sitting on the ground, it will be necessary to have a sturdy set of steps that are not slippery when wet. Just as there is a wide range of hot tubs in today's market in Kelowna, there is also a variety of steps to choose from as well. Two popular materials used in hot tub steps are wood (cedar is the variety of choice because of its natural beauty and depth of color intensity) and molded resin.
Molded resin steps fit the curvature of your tub with ease, and frequently steps of this material have built in storage beneath the step for spa accessories. There are many choices here in color, design, price and size. One such attractive model has inset rubber panels that are very comfortable on bare feet. Rubber insets also help reduce the risk of slipping and falling.
The other popular material of choice is naturally water-resistant western red cedar. Since cedar is a natural product, it fits into an outdoor setting perfectly, and can be stained to suit the décor of your back yard. There is minimal upkeep to cedar depending on the degree to which it is subject to the elements. To keep cedar steps well maintained and in top shape, it is a good idea to stain them regularly. Cedar is a popular choice in Kelowna, although molded resin is also gaining popularity.
The type of exterior finish of your hot tub will determine your choice of steps. Your dealer will be able to show you the steps that are custom designed to fit your particular hot tub, but of course, the choice is up to you. You should also consider important factors such as pricing, durability, sturdiness, and practicality in making your final choice.
