Winter-Proof Wellness: Why Arctic Spas® Are Built for Winter

As the temperature starts to drop, many of us look for ways to escape the cold in some way, shape, or form. From cranking up the thermostat, to piling on every layer you own, to discarded hand warmers scattered around the house. While we all seek warmth in different ways, the goal stays the same: staying warm.

There’s something almost magical about stepping into the warm embrace of an Arctic Spa while the world outside is frozen. As the steam wraps you in warmth, your muscles relax, and suddenly the winter air feels less like something to endure and more like something to embrace. Not only are you guaranteed an escape from the cold around you, your body is also immersed in a hydrotherapy experience that leaves you rejuvenated and ready to take on the world. It’s an experience that makes long nights and snowy days feel special. That is the experience Arctic Spas® are designed to provide.

 

Built With Care, Built to Last

Arctic Spas® are designed with a deep understanding of what it means to live with snow and ice for months on end. From Alaska, to Norway, to Iceland, to Estonia, Arctic Spas® are part of daily life in some of the World’s Harshest Climates. Not only are these spas built to handle winter; they were born from the desire to conquer it.

Every Arctic Spa is made with details that matter, the kind you notice most when the temperatures dip. Unlike many other hot tub manufacturers that insulate their spas with padding, or foam insulation, Arctic Spas® uses perimeter insulation with a high-density closed-cell foam layer. This not only locks in heat, but in combination with the No-Maintenance Cabinets, allows easy access to your spa’s internal components while withstanding heavy snow, ice, and years of exposure without damage or fading. When repairs are needed, service technicians no longer have to dig out the foam insulation in your spa, leaving you to choose between warmth and accessibility. Additionally, Arctic Spas’ Forever Floor™ fiberglass base provides the strength and durability needed to protect your spa from pests, weather, and time.

Every design choice, from easier servicing to energy efficiency, is made so you spend more time enjoying your spa and less time worrying about it.

 

Warmth That Gives Back

Born from innovation, FreeHeat™ technology is one of Arctic Spas’ earliest breakthroughs, designed to keep your spa warm and energy-efficient, making it an essential part of any winter wellness routine. Instead of burying pumps and plumbing in solid foam, Arctic Spas® insulates the floor and walls of the spa, creating a warm cocoon where the heat from the pumps is recycled back into the water rather than wasted. This means your heater doesn’t need to work as hard. Not only does this innovation keep your water consistently warm in the coldest of climates, it also makes your spa far more energy efficient than traditional foam-filled spas. That efficiency translates into lower energy bills all winter long, providing confidence to Arctic Spas® owners that your spa is both sustainable and cost-friendly without having to sacrifice comfort.

 

A Spa You Can Trust

Arctic Spas® has earned its place in homes across the world’s coldest regions. With heavy-duty Mylovac™ covers that keep heat sealed in and snow piled off, and deep ergonomic seats that keep you comfortably immersed in warmth, you’ll stay cozy even when the air outside is icy.

As the temperatures drop, it’s also the perfect time to make sure your spa is ready for the season. Our guide to winterizing your hot tub walks you through everything you need to know to keep it protected and performing at its best.

If you’ve been wondering whether now is the right time to bring a spa home, there’s no better season. A spa engineered to be at its very best in winter, an Arctic Spa delivers the warmth, efficiency, and durability that make every soak something to savor. With Arctic Spas®, winter isn’t just a season to get through—it’s a season to cherish.
