How to Avoid a Costly (and Dangerous) Mistake: Rooftop Hot Tub Installation - Video

It might seem simple to drop a hot tub on your deck or roof, but did you know a typical hot tub filled with water can weigh anywhere from 6,000 to 8,000 pounds? That’s like parking a full-size SUV on your house. ????????

In this project, the home was engineered from day one to support that kind of load. That’s the only reason we were able to safely crane this hot tub up and place it on the roof without a hitch. ????

If you're even thinking about installing a rooftop hot tub or spa on a second-story deck, you absolutely need to consult a structural engineer or architect. They’ll tell you if it’s safe, or if your space can be modified to handle the load.

Would you love a hot tub with a rooftop view, or do you prefer it grounded in the garden? Let’s hear your dream setup below! ????
