In February of 2021 I purchased a 2 person blow-up hot tub, online, from a company called Aleko. This was the best $500.00 I’ve ever spent in my life! If you’re interested about this and other hot tubs in Kalispell, read on.
As a massage therapist in Kalispell, I understand the benefits of hot, and cold therapy. I’d always wanted a hot tub, and had no idea there was even such a thing as a blow-up hot tub. A client of mine mentioned he and his girlfriend had purchased one and were quite happy with it, so I found one online whose dimensions would work with my patio, and here we are. Click HERE for a link to some of Aleko’s products. It takes about 48 hours for it to heat up after being filled with water from the garden hose. The tub is portable, and has its own built in pump, and heater. And that’s where my problems began (there have been very few), with the heater. About 2 months after purchase, the heater burned out, so the company sent me a new heater to install, which took about 3 hours. THAT heater only lasted a month, so Aleko then sent me a brand new complete tub, and I’ve taken to using the old one for an ice bath! Yep, I now have hot and cold therapy pools right in my backyard. Ice brings down inflammation, and heat helps sore muscles recover after a turbo gym workout, and certainly reduces stress and improves sleep.
Here’s a pic of my wife Sharmon enjoying our hot tub in Kalispell. Yes, two medium sized people can comfortably fit in this hot tub. The 4 person blow-up hot tubs seem to be more popular than the 2 person units, and the covers for the 4 person tubs fit much better than the stock cover that came with my unit. It has 2 filters that screw into the wall of the tub, and unfortunately due to supply chain issues, or something, they have been out of stock at Aleko for months, but not changing them doesn’t seem to have done any damage to my hot tub.
I use a “Frog” brand floating bromine dispenser gizmo to keep the water clean, and the PH and alkalinity balanced. It conveniently flips upside down when it’s time to be changed.
The hot tub heats to a max of 108 degrees which I’ve found is plenty hot even in the dead of winter. I’m very pleased with Aleko, the maker of this hot tub, and delighted with their customer service. I’ve found that I enjoy using this stress reducer as much in August as I did in February. CHEERS!
