rockman6104 Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 Hello everyone. I'm glad I found this forum. I'm turning my garage into a man cave for myself. I've just purchased a used Balboa HS200VS 6 person hot tub. Ive had a Catelina Spa in the past so I have some hot tub experience. The tub is getting delivered in 1 week so I have some time to get everything set up properly. My only concern is the slope in my garage. It's not horrible, but it slopes 2" over an 8 foot span (the length of the tub). I would like to shim it for it to be level. I was going to use pressure treated fence board. What are your opinions/suggestions on shimming a hot tub and having a hot tub installed in a garage. Looking forward to hearing from you.

I've seen hotels, motels, cabins with indoor hot tubs, so I don't see too many issues there. Will be humid inside garage, be wary of stuff rusting.
