HOT SPRING® SPAS

Highlife® Collection

The signature Moto-Massage® DX, 100% no-bypass Tri-X® filtration, and the FreshWater® Salt System, all standard. This is Hot Spring at its best.

Shop by Size

From the roomy seven-seat Grandee® to the compact Jetsetter®, every Highlife spa comes standard with the features you’d expect from the world’s best-selling hot tub brand. Filter by size to find the hot tub that fits your space.

Find the Right Hot Tub

Most people only buy a hot tub once, so it’s normal not to know where to start. These six questions cover what actually matters. Answer them and you’ll know what to look for.

How many people will use it?

Size to a normal week, not a holiday party. This one answer narrows the field more than any other.

What do you want it to help with?

Back pain, arthritis, stress relief, better sleep. Each one has a straight, sourced answer in Hydrotherapy 101.

Lounge seat, or open seating?

A lounge lets one person recline full-length. Open seating fits more people. Neither is better, and it’s the main reason to sit in a few spas before choosing.

Which features matter most?

Massage systems, water care, lighting, audio, smart controls. Don’t get hung up on jet count, though; where the jets sit and how they’re designed matters far more than how many there are.

Do you want salt water care?

Softer-feeling water, far less dosing, and up to a year between water changes. On Highlife the FreshWater® Salt System is included, so this one’s already answered.

What’s your timeframe?

Easy water care with the FreshWater® Salt System

Salt-ready water turns a small amount of dissolved salt into chlorine automatically, so you spend far less time on upkeep and add fewer chemicals. On the Highlife collection it comes standard.

How the Salt System works

A titanium cartridge converts dissolved salt into chlorine as the water circulates, and it’s owner-replaceable about every four months. Softer-feeling water, less dosing, and up to a year between water changes. Learn more about the Salt System.

Add FreshWater® IQ for hands-off testing

FreshWater IQ adds hourly water testing and one-touch dosing on top of the salt system. The spa tests itself, shows what it needs on the panel or app, and corrects pH at a tap. Available on 2024-and-newer Highlife models. Learn more about FreshWater IQ.

What our customers say

Recent five-star Google reviews from across Northwest Washington.

“Yet another 5-star review for Hot Tubs Northwest, and specifically for Randy Skelton, who went above and beyond to make our experience excellent. It took us over a year to go from “window shopping” to wet-testing (at HTNW twice, and two other spa retailers) to finally purchasing, and he stuck with us patiently the whole time.…”

Emily G. Burlington Showroom · 3 months ago

“We recently purchased a hot tub from Hot Tubs NW and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. Jared and Galen are incredibly knowledgeable and did an amazing job with the installation. They took the time to answer all of our questions about maintenance, water care, and chemicals, making sure we felt comfortable and confident with our new hot tub.…”

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the hot tub questions we hear most. The Learning Center covers each one in depth.

How much does a Highlife hot tub cost?

Highlife is Hot Spring’s luxury collection, so it sits at the top of the range. Our cost guide walks the tiers with real numbers. We don’t price a specific model sight-unseen because your real cost depends on the model, the features you choose, and what your site needs. Get pricing and we’ll quote your exact setup, no pressure and no obligation.

Will it cost a fortune to heat in winter?

Cold climates cost more, but the Highlife build is made for it: multiple layers of foam insulation, an insulated base, a SilentFlo circulation pump, and a tight-sealing cover. The cover is the biggest daily factor.

Is the salt system really included?

Yes. The FreshWater® Salt System comes standard on the Highlife collection, so softer-feeling water and far less dosing are built in, not an upcharge. Add FreshWater® IQ on 2024-and-newer models for hands-off testing.

What size Highlife do I need?

The collection runs from the compact Jetsetter® up to the seven-seat Grandee®, with lounge and open-seating layouts in between. 2 to 3 seats fits couples and small spaces, 4 to 5 fits most families, and 6 to 7 is built for entertaining. If you’re between two sizes, go by a normal week of use rather than your biggest gathering.
