Why these spas are the best for cold climates

Advanced insulation that retains heat

Full-foam insulation helps lock in heat around the shell and plumbing, reducing heat loss and keeping water temperatures consistent, even in cold-weather conditions.

Energy efficiency in every season

Efficient heating systems, quality insulation, and a well-fitted cover work together to help reduce energy use, making it easier to enjoy your spa through winter without excessive costs.

Freeze protection you can rely on

Built-in freeze protection systems automatically activate when temperatures drop. This is essential for protecting key components and keeping your spa running smoothly in cold climates.

Always ready, even in the coldest weather

Your spa is built to maintain consistent water temperature, so you can set your spa to stay warm and ready to use whenever you are, even when the weather is below freezing.

Smart monitoring for cold weather

The SmartTub® System gives you added peace of mind by protecting your spa from freezing, as it can alert you to power outages or a loose cover.

Warmth that makes winter feel shorter

There’s nothing like the contrast of warm water and crisp air, as it provides a break from the winter chill. Cold weather makes every soak feel even more relaxing, turning your spa into a true winter retreat.

What our customers are saying and feeling

Love our spa!!!

“My husband kicked the tires for years!  He finally broke down and bought it! I can’t say enough good things. I’m so much more relaxed after being in it. Our muscle tension seems to float away and sleep is better!  So happy!"

Relaxation here we come!

"We purchased our spa four months ago and use it almost every other day!  It is the first hot tub I have owned that I did not float up in the lounger seat. The bluetooth feature to my phone is so nice to have.  I can play any type of music depending on the atmosphere we want.  The lights also help set the mood choosing between solid and rotating colors mesmerizes the kids when they are out there.  I don't think I have ever been this relaxed in my life!!"

Romona

One year later, no regrets

“This hot tub does everything you need and big enough to enjoy alone or with your partner. Easy to control, and my favorite part is the deep basin so I can fully submerge up to my neck. Love the waterfall, LED lighting, and overall design."

My Daily Dose of Dover

“I waited to review and I feel that 4 years is enough of a break-in period. My Dover is the BOSS! I’m a daily soaker and so far not a hiccup. Take care of your tub and it will take care of you! It will even tell you when and what it needs. Dig it!"

Hot tub of my dreams

"We purchased this hot tub 2+ years ago and have been very happy with almost all aspects of this tub. The flat lid areas are a great place when the kids need a rest out of the heat. Care and maintenance has been very simple with parts/supplies available online."

Wonderfully relaxing and powerful spa

"This is our first spa that we purchased a little over 2 years ago.  It has been very popular with our teens and their friends. The low profile makes for a better spa experience for the shorter folks. It was a more expensive option but delivers more than we expected. "

Fabulous hot tub and features

"I bought my hot tub from Imagine Backyard Living in North Scottsdale. The showroom itself was amazing. The people who work at Imagine Backyard Living were phenomenal. They know the products and they explain everything thoroughly. They made everything simple and easy for me to purchase from them. I called them with a few questions before my hot tub was being delivered and everyone helped me. It was one of the best experiences I ever had. I decided on the Chelsea hot tub. That was the best decision. The jets are powerful and very relaxing. I like it very strong. My kids don’t like the strong jets but you can control it from the individual seats. The lighting system is a really nice feature. Plenty of room to stretch out too. It has brought our family closer. We love it and we use it 4 to 5 days a week. You pay for what you get. Thank you Sundance for making a quality product."

Powerful jets, perfect for small spaces

"The jets are so powerful, especially when you control the diverter to focus the air flow. I'm 53 and a busted-up former paratrooper, and I can attest that the therapeutic value from these powerful jets is worth EVERY penny spent and then some. "

Holds up well over time

"We've had our Cameo since 2008. It is such a joy to relax in the lounge with the wrist jets, then move to the seat where the back jets are really the equivalent of a skilled masseuse at taking out knots. We hope to enjoy it for many more years to come. "

Exactly what we wanted

"We are experienced tub owners and had our first one for 12 years. We have had the Hamilton for about a month and are very pleased with all the small extras that make this tub so much nicer than our first basic model. The non-moving parts in the jets will make the longevity so much better. All the filtration really makes a big difference in how your skin feels and not smelling all the chemicals. The layout is awesome and works great for relieving the aching muscles. Overall you get what you pay for. Considering we plan on having this tub for 15 to 20 years I think we made a great choice."

Love our second Sundance spa

"We purchased the Capri Spa due to the smaller size which fits perfectly under our Pergola on the patio. We also own the Sundance Altimar Spa which we have at our mountain home. It's the reason we stayed with Sundance. QUALITY that LASTS!!!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Definitely. Sundance® spas are designed to be used year-round, even in colder climates. These spas come with features like full-foam insulation, energy-efficient heaters, and tight-fitting covers that help retain heat and keep operating costs manageable, even in winter. Many people find that soaking in colder weather is especially enjoyable, thanks to the contrast between the warm water and crisp air.

They're built with high-quality, full-foam insulation. This insulation surrounds the shell and plumbing, which reduces heat loss and helps the spa maintain a consistent water temperature, even in colder weather. Combined with a well-fitted, insulated cover, the insulation keeps operating costs lower and ensures your spa stays warm and ready to use year-round.

Winter heating costs will vary based on your climate, local energy rates, how often you use the spa, and how well it’s insulated. In general, a well-built, well-insulated spa with a quality cover will be much more efficient than older or lower-end models. Keeping the cover on when not in use also makes a big difference in controlling monthly costs.

Full-foam insulation helps retain heat around the shell and plumbing, while freeze protection systems automatically circulate water or activate the heater if temperatures drop too low. A well-insulated cover plays an important role by locking in heat and keeping cold air out.Together, these features help prevent the water from freezing and keep your spa running reliably through winter.

Not usually. In fact, cooler outdoor temperatures can sometimes slow things like bacteria growth when the spa isn’t in use. The key is to test your water regularly and keep sanitizer and pH levels balanced, just like any other time of year. Sundance® spas make this process simple with efficient circulation and water care systems, so your water stays clean and clear even in winter.
