Dealing With Hot Tub StepsProviding Alternate Access As you build your hot tub consider how it can be accessed and consider its target clientele. If you are building it at home you must also think about how your friends and you, as you age, can access it. If you build it into the ground then the only hot tub steps are those required to immerse oneself in the water. In such a case there are many ways to get in without using them. The waters are not normally deep and, therefore, even falling into the tub may be an option providing you are careful. However, if your tub is above the ground or perhaps even on a special porch or other raised platform, considerations of access may dictate that you consider more than just simple hot tub steps for access. Of course this will raise the price. Your might even consider building a ramp for wheelchair access, in fact you may already need to depending on the targeted users. Liability In the litigious society that we all live in you need to consider your hot tub steps in terms of your exposure to accidents that may occur on them. Your hot tub steps may become damp. Therefore, you should post a sign that warns that condition. Your hot tub steps may be made of a material that can burn in the summer or can splinter. In fact, they may simply be a liability you cannot afford. Another option may be to have every guest sign a waiver of all liability associated with your hot tub steps. Of course that may not be considered very friendly or neighborly in some quarters. |
