The days when the jacuzzi was considered a sign of luxury are long gone. Today, such a bathtub is available to most Russian families, since manufacturers offer a wide range of models at a variety of prices. But the decision to install a hot tub in an apartment or house should be balanced and well thought out.

What it is?
The whirlpool bath, in which everything is "bubbling", got its name in honor of the manufacturer - an American company. She, in turn, took in the name the Italian surname Jacuzzi, which correctly reads "Yakuzzi". But the mispronunciation very quickly took root in most languages of the world and so began to call the whirlpool baths of any manufacturer.

The company that first started making bubble baths opened in 1917. It was founded by one of the seven Yakuzzi brothers who emigrated to the United States from Italy. At first, the enterprising Italian tried to produce aircraft, but failed. Then he retrained production to produce pumps for farmers, but this undertaking was not a commercial success either.

The Yakuzzi family had a child who, for health reasons, required constant massage, and it was only in 1956 that a prototype of a hot tub was invented. Then the brothers together changed and improved the design many times, received about 2.5 hundred copyright patents.
Mass production began in 1968. The jacuzzi bath, as conceived by the manufacturers, works as a universal massager, in which the action on the active points occurs with jets of water. But gradually, such a word began to call things that have nothing to do with home hydromassage, for example, this is how they often call a place under a waterfall or at the threshold of a river.

Modern Jacuzzis are not just baths with a pump that supplies air to multiple jets. These are real thermal springs within the most ordinary apartment. You can choose geyser baths and waterfall baths, illuminated structures, musical ones, as well as pulsating exactly in time with the fluctuations of the planet's magnetic field.
Needless to say, bathing in such a bath is not just a hygienic procedure. This is a session of hydromassage, relaxation, which has a positive effect on well-being and health.

Advantages and disadvantages
Hydromassage as a method of beneficial effects on the human body has been known for a long time. Water jets act pointwise on those parts of the body that are commonly referred to as active zones, and this effect is often used in the prevention and even treatment of certain diseases. Modern Jacuzzi offer three massage options:
- hydromassage - the impact occurs with water jets;
- air massage — exposure occurs with jets of air;
- turbomassage — the impact occurs both with water and air at the same time according to the combined type.
Usually the nozzles are located in those parts of the bath where certain parts of the bather's body should be located - shoulders, back, thighs, feet. The air jets are positioned under the buttocks and thighs.

However, bathtubs "with bubbles" also have their drawbacks, which many begin to guess only after the bathtub has already been purchased.
- A jacuzzi takes up a lot of space, and therefore it is almost impossible to fit a bathtub into a small bathroom. Even corner and round jacuzzis are rather bulky items.
- Using a whirlpool tub increases water consumption by several times, and therefore bills will be higher.
- The cost of a bath, although not as high as before, is still not budgetary.
- An installed hot tub requires careful and vigilant care. After application, water remains in the nozzles. With insufficient care, it becomes a favorable breeding ground for bacteria and fungi. Injectors require special treatment and periodic replacement.
- There is no shower in the jacuzzi, so you can only swim under the tap. Also, the design does not provide for the use of the bath directly for washing - dirt and sweat can contaminate the nozzles.
This bath is intended only for relaxation and massage, not for washing in the full sense of the word.

Materials (edit)
The jacuzzi body can be made of different materials. Most often found acrylic and cast iron bathsbut the hot tub can be and plastic, as well as made of natural stone.
The most inexpensive options are bowls made of polymer materials. Acrylic and plastic jacuzzis look beautiful and attractive, pleasant to the touch, but these materials cannot be called durable. Cast iron and stone are more durable.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/220-220/2019/09/dzhakuzi-chto-eto-takoe-plyusy-i-minusy-vybor-ispolzovanie-48.jpg)

Considering that it is acrylic that is chosen most often, today manufacturers offer bathtubs, the bowls of which are made of two-layer or three-layer acrylic; for greater strength, they make a reinforced metal grate.
Such bathtubs are lightweight, it is not difficult to take them from the store to the house, lift them to your floor, mount and connect. One adult man can easily cope with this. Cast iron products will require the simultaneous efforts of several people.

In the assortment of modern plumbing stores, you can also find a jacuzzi from kvarila... This polymer material is composed of acrylic and quartz sand. Such baths are more resistant to mechanical damage, scratches and chips.
Steel and cast iron Jacuzzis are more expensive, they are more durable, laborious to transport and install. But it's worth it. Cast iron retains heat better, the water in the bath does not cool down longer. Cast iron baths are more expensive than steel ones; steel bowls do not retain heat so well.

The choice of material is important in determining the acceptable price, the material of the bowl does not have any additional effect on health, enhance the healing effect, and therefore it would be incorrect to pose the question of which bathtub is more useful - plastic or steel. Regardless of the material of the bowl, manufacturers provide the same safety measures so as not to harm human health.
For example, when the bowl is empty, the equipment does not turn on, and in order to avoid electric shock during the procedures, equipment with automatic shutdown and RCD is used. If a failure occurs during use, the power will simply turn off.

The design tips will be as follows.
- If you are decorating a bathroom in a classic style with tiles, then try to choose a Jacuzzi with a cast iron or marble bowl. For apartments, it is worth choosing lightweight acrylic multi-layer options.
- If the bathroom is designed in a minimalist style, the jacuzzi should not be too large and luxurious. Choose modest models of small dimensions without decorative trim.
- A large bathroom is a good reason to consider a round or oval hot tub. A jacuzzi of this shape looks especially good in rooms with windows and natural light.
- The presence of a jacuzzi requires a special approach to lighting. It is important that the number of fixtures provides a high level of illumination in the bathroom.
- Next to the jacuzzi, designers consider it appropriate to install special holders for towels, as well as furniture. If space permits, when creating a design project, you can provide for the location next to the hot tub of flowers or a tub with plants that do not require a lot of sunlight, but love high humidity.
When choosing color solutions, experts advise choosing a whirlpool tub so that it matches the flooring as best as possible.
