If you are thinking about treating yourself and your family to a spa pool, there are probably already many reasons why you might want to get one. It can be a fantastic way to truly relax and unwind in the home, and for many people it is one of the true signs of real luxury.
All of that might be true, but a spa pool in your backyard will also help you to get through some of those harsher New Zealand winters, which can be a lot colder than many people realise. Whether you have just moved to New Zealand or you are a long-time native, you are going to appreciate having some simple way to get yourself through those colder months.
In this blog post, we will take you through some of the main ways in which having a spa pool will help get you through the New Zealand winter. Appreciating and understanding some of the following points should help you to really make the most of your spa pool - or encourage you to finally buy one, if you have been thinking about doing that for a while now.
Depending on which part of New Zealand you find yourself in, it can get very cold in the winter. If you are in the South, you are probably used to this, but it can often take people by surprise even so. With potential temperatures bottoming out to around -12 degrees celcius some years, it’s really going to be beneficial to have some kind of way to keep yourself warm during those months.
Of course, there are plenty of ways to do that. But if you have a spa pool, you are going to find that this is much more easy to do, and it is going to afford you a really powerful opportunity to keep yourself warm when it gets really cold.
With a spa pool in your garden or back yard, you can simply dip into its warm temperature water and escape the chill for a while. Imagine a day on the snow fields or pottering in your garden; top if off with a warm soak to soothe tired muscles and prepare you for the next chilly day ahead.
If you happen to keep your swim spa or spa pool near to your back door, even better: that way you have a shorter dash across the yard in the cold air to get back indoors!
The beauty of one of these top of the range spa pools is that you can choose your temperature exactly, and make it as cool or as warm as you like. That means that you can use a spa pool as the perfect accompaniment, no matter what the outside temperature actually becomes or what your personal comfort level might be.
Let’s say you are in the North, and in an area that is somewhat more tropical than the snowy South. You might not have quite as harsh a winter, so you wouldn’t need the spa pool in your yard to be quite as warm. Thankfully, with these spa pools, you can keep them at exactly the temperature you desire, meaning that you are not going to be too warm or too cool during winter - or, indeed, during any time of the year.
All temperature controls are right there in your topside spa control so, even if you add an external electric heat pump, you won't need to leave your spa to turn up the heat.
The whole point of being able to choose your temperature and keep out of the extreme weather is that it allows you to be comfortable. Comfort is a hugely important thing, something that you are going to want to try and create for yourself as best as you can at all times. The more comfortable you can be in the home, the better, as it is going to offer up a range of benefits.
Some of the main benefits to being comfortable include:
As you can see, being comfortable really is something that you should aim for. As well as all of those benefits, you are going to find that other people experience the same benefits around you as well, which brings us nicely to our next main point.
When you have something like a spa pool in your home, and everyone is using it regularly, that means that you are all going to be much more relaxed and calm on the whole. That’s great news, because it means that your family is going to be a lot happier, more conducive to working together and living in harmony, and generally just having a better time.
When it's too cold for a walk together or for playing games in the backyard, some precious, quality time spent together as a family will maintain relationships and encourage easy conversation.
You probably already know that having a happy family is one of the most essential aspects to being happy yourself. With a spa pool, you can keep your family as happy as possible, thereby enjoying the many ongoing benefits that come from that. This alone could mean that getting through the winters in New Zealand could be a lot easier on you and everyone else around you.
A spa pool really can feel like luxury. If you don’t want to have one more winter without feeling like you are living in luxury, this is something that you are going to be able to rectify by simply treating yourself - and your whole family - to a high quality spa pool, and doing so as soon as possible - at least before the true depths of winter come in.
