Amy D Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 I bought a nice 8'x8' Arctic spa, but when it was time to hook it all up, the city wouldn't let me because of a property line setback rule. So I need a spa that is close to 5' wide to comply with the ruling. I need a big hot tub, though, and have up to 13 feet in length to work with. Does anyone know of a long skinny hot tub that would solve my problem?? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really want that size, you need to build one from scratch. My friend over at www.custombuiltspas.com can help you with that. Otherwise your going to be with a 4 person tub for the most part. http://www.soundclick.com/havenhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A portable hot tub would not normally be impacted by property setback requirements. It is not a permanent structure. If it was a city clerk that told you that, you might want to check with a local attorney to make sure the city gave you correct information. Usually, set back requirements apply to the building of a permanent structure. Even if the setback rule should apply, since you already bought an Arctic, I would look into the possiblity of requesting a varience or special exception from the city. But I really don't think a lot set back requirement can apply to a portable hot tub. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spa_repair_guy Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Y' know I was thinking Why not look at a quality wooden tub? You can go DEEP for therapy and yet remain small. There are ovals and rectangles as well. Try RHTUBS and let us know here how it works out for you. srg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
