Having a rather unique outdoor TV hot tub for sale for the last few years, we get a number of common questions that I would like to address for my readers.
Can I get a truly good quality TV built into an outdoor spa?
The answer is yes. But, as always, do your research. If the offer is for a “free TV with hot tub purchase,” your senses should tingle. Ask precisely what you are getting. How big is the TV in the hot tub spa?; is it actually in the hot tub, or mounted on the side?; is it on a motorized up and down drive?; if not, does it even go up and down?; what is the resolution of the screen?, is it an LCD screen?; does it come with a waterproof remote control?; and so on. Make sure you see the hot tub pictures before purchasing. You will get a better sense of the quality and if it will fit your needs.
Is the TV waterproof…and how?
In the case of the BellaGrande SLT (stereo, lights, television), the TV is waterproof to IP66 standards. That means you can use your TV hot tub with confidence, knowing that the water won’t damage the screen.
We incorporate a 20”, 720P hi-definition LCD TV in our BellaGrande SLT. That’s plenty of screen to enjoy television programs or DVD’s while relaxing or socializing with friends in your outdoor spa.
Does the TV in the hot tub work in snow?
Speaking only of our own TV hot tub model, the answer is yes. All of our outdoor spas are properly insulated with expansion foam for even the coldest northern climates. The TV stays warm and protected in the cabinet when not in use, so it will be ready to watch even in the chilly winter months.
Does the TV spa have a remote control?
The TV comes with a standard remote which is not okay for a hot tub environment. We include a waterproof programmable remote with our TV hot tub prices. The remote controls the TV, DVD, and Stereo functions. It can even be programmed to control other components like a satellite receiver.
Is the spa stereo waterproof?
Again, in our case, the answer is yes. Some manufacturers cut corners by putting car stereos or even marine stereos in their cheap hot tubs. Those units have air vents in the chassis for cooling. Since they are being put into spas, these manufacturers tape over the air vents to protect from water penetration, but risking overheating. Our spa stereos (stereo/DVD models in the TV spas) have a sealed chassis and use heat syncs for cooling. They are more expensive, but very durable and reliable in the field.
