Features of the Coleman Lay-Z-Spa
Your Coleman Lay-Z-Spa inflatable hot tub measures 77 x 77 inches round (1.96m) and 26 inches (66cm) deep. This means that 4 adults can easily fit inside with space to spare, or you can seat 6 adults at a push. You sit on the cushioned floor of the tub, and relax back in the hot, bubbling waters for the full-effect of and its air jet massage and stress busting hydro-therapy.
“I’m 5’10” and the water comes up to my hips…its plenty deep enough.”
The Coleman Lay-Z-Spa is built of unique 3-ply reinforced TriTech material, while the walls have an internal I-Beam construction, which makes it super-strong and durable. This means you can sit on the sides of your hot tub without it buckling or giving way.
As well as the internal cushioned floor, you also get a separate ground mat, for extra protection under the spa. There’s also an inflatable and insulated lid, which helps to keep the water hot when you are not using your hot tub. And, for added protection, there’s an external cover complete with snap-together safety clips. So you can be assured that young children cannot get into the tub when you are not around.
The hot tub has the powerful Lay-Z-Spa AirJet system, with 87 air jets which give a soothing massage, and there’s also an integrated filter system to keep your water clean and free from contaminates. You do need to keep your filer cartridges clean, by rinsing them regularly in cold water.
As with every feature of this portable hot tub, removing and replacing the filters is extremely simple and requires no special tools or technical skills.
From setting up your hot tub, through regular maintenance, and on to packing it away at the end of the season, everything about your Coleman Lay-Z-Spa really is as simple as A-B-C.
Setting Up Your Coleman Lay-Z-Spa Hot Tub
Even if you’re a total portable hot tub newbie, your Coleman Lay-Z-Spa inflatable hot tub takes only 10 minutes to lay-out and inflate.
First, you choose a flat piece of ground or decking area. Make sure it is free of sharp objects, such as stones and twigs. Then place the ground mat in the position you want your hot tub to be in. Next, you lay out the hot tub on top of the mat, connect the hot tub to the pump and switch it on. It takes about 5 minutes for your hot tub to inflate, ready to be filled with water.
Using a normal garden hose, you then fill the spa with water. Remember to make sure the water level is between the Minimum and the Maximum lines, which are clearly visible on the inside all of the hot tub. Then turn on the built-in Rapid heating system, using the digital control panels to select your desired water temperature. If you choose the maximum temperature of 104F (40c), it should take between 12 and 24 hours to heat up, depending on the temperature of the water from your hose and the ambient air temperature.
Please watch the video below for a great walk-through of how to set up your hot tub.
Enjoying Your Coleman Lay-Z-Spa Inflatable Hot Tub
When the water is at your desired temperature, it’s simply a matter of slipping into the soothing warm waters and relaxing. Everything you need is right at hand, with the Digital Control Panel on the side of the tub allowing you to turn on the AirJet massage system at will or give the water temperature a boost.
Once you’re up and running with your new portable hot tub, you might decide to add in a couple of accessories to enhance your spa experience, such as a floating Bluetooth speaker or an attachable drinks tray.
We always like to remind people, however, that you don’t necessarily have to buy Lay-Z-Spa accessories, as most hot tub accessories will fit your inflatable hot tub, so go with the ones that you appeal to you, as long as they have some good reviews and are at a fair price.
