As spring quickly approaches, now is the prefect time to begin your backyard preparation, which can including the installation of a new spa or hot tub. When being plans for your new hot tub, the first consideration you'll need to address is whether you want it to sink into the deck. These pros and cons should help you to decide if this type of installation method is right for you. Pro #1: In deck installation allows the spa to blend into the surroundings. When hot tubs are installed flush with the deck's surface, it allows for a more secluded atmosphere. Homeowners are able to merge the hot tub's area into the surrounding landscaping, providing a retreat from the hectic realities of life. Pro #2: In ground installations allow for integrated …show more content…
When both the hot tub and the deck area are constructed at the same time, homeowners are better able to customize their spa. They will have access to a number of customizable design features that otherwise may be unavailable to them if they had to buy a stock hot tub. Con #1: In deck spas typically are more costly to install and maintain. Because the deck has to be built around the hot tub, this type of installation can cost a lot more than on deck installation. In ground hot tubs need to be installed by an experienced professional to avoid damaging the equipment or creating potential damage to the deck itself. They also tend to cost more to operate and maintain due to increased power consumption and fewer cover options. Con #2: Hot tubs that are sunk in a deck can pose increased tripping hazards. Nothing can bring a good party to a grinding halt faster than someone getting hurt due to tripping on the less visible edges of sunk in hot tubs. Not only does the risk of personal injury increase, but the homeowners liability can also go up drastically if someone is hurt because they tripped over the hot tub. Con #3: Decreased equipment access can cause problems with maintenance and

In this case, the hot tub was an open and obvious danger because it had the characteristics of a swimming pool and did not have a hidden danger. Like in Bae, where the artificial condition was a swimming pool that was an open and obvious danger, Burov’s hot tub is a small-size pool with almost identical characteristics of a swimming pool. The hot tub is a four-person hot tub that is lifted on a platform with steps; the depth and width of the hot tub is reasonably spacious since it fits four adults. Like in Mayle, where the pool had strong water current and the water was frothy, Burov’s hot tub has frothy water and probably strong water current. The four-person hot tub on Burov’s property is spacious enough to pose similar danger to a child

It’s August 21s,t 2015 a week before school starts. We were at the Wisconsin Dells for the end of summer trip. It all started with Will, putting His feet in the ice cold water that feels like it belongs at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. Will, plumped down on the tub that feels like a bean bag holding itself up he explained. Only if he knew to hang on tight, Will was pushed down the slide (In the tube of course) by the employee that sent me flying down the slide like he was soaring in the sky like a bird. On a sharp turn my tub flipped and Will, landed on his stomach hitting the plastic that’s sticking out of the bottom of the sliding feeling like small needles puncturing my stomach he explained. Will came soaring out the end of the tube to only be told he had to stay on the tube next time or Will would be kicked out of the water park for the employee's accident, Will tried to explain his story but they didn’t believe it. What if Will or any other kid was soaring down the slide and hit their head on the side of the slide going down at 30-40 miles an hour? It can be a tragic accident leading to Brain Damage, Concussions or even Death.Water slides should get more precautions for safety reasons.
Our results show that doing a belly flop would cause the most harm to a person who is diving into a pool of water. This is based off of the greater speed that a person belly flops into the water (8.3 m/s2), which is more than both head first diving (7.73 m/s2) and rotating into the water (7.34 m/s2). Also, the amount of force that the water exerts on the body while doing a belly flop (1079 N) is greater than the amount of force the water exerts on the body while head first diving (1004.95 N) and rotating into the water (954.2 N). It takes approximately 3,300 N to crack bones, such as a rib and approximately 4,000 n to fracture a femur (Choi,C). This means that the excessive amounts of force have the power to breaks bones and the greater the
In fact, I have only experienced the luxury of hot tubs only a few times in my life. Living in Phoenix, where heat is already the de facto temperature, owning a hot tub is often less than desirable. Phoenicians do not need a Jacuzzi because we can get wet and toasty just by perspiring when we walk outside. However, when my family and I travel to another state, there is sometimes a Jacuzzi at the place we stay. So, while in a more favorable climate than in Arizona, my family always takes advantage of getting into the spa. Entering a hot tub is always memorable: one foot in - hot to the touch; slide into the pool - uncomfortable, at first; but, wait a moment - the coziest sensation there could be. Relaxing in the tub is always a communal opportunity. My father discusses something with my mother. My older sister adds her two cents to the conversation, and my brother and I comment when appropriate. It becomes as pleasant a discourse as if we were having supper around the dinner table. It is always a lovely time. If there is a swimming pool nearby, my dad likes to jump in it after leaving the Jacuzzi. My mom and my sister do not understand why, but it is a strangely incredible feeling. The warmth on your body from the hot tub ecstatically contrasts upon impact with the coolness of the swimming pool as you jump into it. I feel like it is what happens when molten lava, flowing down a volcano, hits a cold ocean tide. It is quite a strange sensation, but it is rather exhilarating, as well. Overall, bathing in hot tubs has been a very rare occurrence in my life. However, I can say, upon recollection, that there is one word that consistently describes all those experiences: family. Conversing with one another across the bath is easy due a hot tub's round nature. Chilling, per say, together during a common relaxing bath brings such an interpersonal sense of fellowship. Concluding, I
