As the summer heat rolls in, there's nothing more comfortable after a long day of work than coming home and enjoying a thorough relaxation session. An outdoor hot tub, especially in the evening breeze of a summer day, helps wash away work-related stress and brings us back to the simple joys of life. In this season, mastering water temperature control becomes essential. This guide will provide you with comprehensive tips to help you achieve the most comfortable soaking experience in summer.
Many people associate outdoor hot tubs with winter, imagining that soaking in warm water during cold weather brings unmatched comfort. While it's true that hot tubs can add warmth to cold days, imagine this: coming home after a long day, stepping into a gently heated spa as the last rays of sunshine fade, with a soft breeze on your face and the steady flow of hydro-massage relaxing your muscles. The heat and fatigue of the day melt away. This kind of summer spa joy far surpasses air conditioning and cold drinks.
Soaking in the right conditions during summer brings a unique kind of relaxation. Warm, not hot, water can help regulate body temperature and blood circulation, relieving fatigue and providing a real sense of cooling.
Why Proper Water Temperature Matters in Summer
Outdoor temperatures in summer are naturally high, and the human body relies on sweating to regulate heat. If the hot tub water is too warm, it can place extra strain on the body’s cooling mechanisms, potentially leading to symptoms such as nausea, thirst, heatstroke, or even fainting.
Extra care should be taken for children, the elderly, and pregnant women. Entering a hot tub with improper water temperature in summer may increase health risks for these vulnerable groups. A properly set water temperature can help relieve fatigue, but an improper setting can have the opposite effect.
JOYEE's Recommended Water Temperatures for Summer
In summer, the ideal hot tub temperature should be set at:
36°C to 37°C (97°F–99°F): Comfortable and non-irritating, helps muscles relax For sensitive groups: 34°C–35°C (93°F–95°F) is safer and gentler Do not exceed 38°C (100°F): To avoid a rapid rise in body temperature
This range sits between the average body temperature and the outdoor environment — not too cold to cause chills and not too hot to harm your health.
How to Find Your “Perfect Temperature”
Comfortable water temperature is subjective and depends on factors like air temperature, humidity, physical condition, and even your mood on a given day. Here are some tips to find your personal "golden temperature":
Start Low: Begin at 95°F (35°C), then gradually increase by 1°F–2°F (0.5–1°C) Monitor Physical Response: If you feel dizzy, sweaty, or your heart rate increases, the temperature may be too high Use a Digital Thermometer: Don’t rely on touch alone — use a thermometer for accuracy Try Different Times of Day: Morning and evening temperatures feel different — find the best combination for you
Smart Guidelines for Soaking Time
Even with the right temperature, long soaks are not recommended. JOYEE advises the following durations for summer:
General public: 20–30 minutes per session Lower temperatures (91°F–95°F / 33°C–35°C): Extend to about 40 minutes Children or elderly: 10–15 minutes with supervision Stop if discomfort occurs: Dizziness, chest tightness, or headaches mean it’s time to get out and rest
Drink water before, during, and after your soak to prevent dehydration or electrolyte loss.
Tips for Efficient Heating in Summer
Summer water doesn’t need as much heating as in winter. Smart use of natural conditions can save energy:
Use sunlight for natural warming: Place the hot tub in a sunny spot — a few hours of sun can heat the water, but be mindful not to overexpose the tub to prevent wear and tear Keep the lid on: Prevents heat loss and shortens heating time Choose tubs with insulation: Well-insulated tubs (like JOYEE’s design with inner shell, base, and skirtpanel) save power and cut long-term costs Use smart temperature control systems: Set your ideal temperature and schedule heating to avoid unnecessary power use
Hot tubs offer more than warmth in winter — they’re also a great companion for summer relaxation. Whether you're enjoying a peaceful solo soak or spending time with family, a properly managed summer spa session offers a trifecta of coolness, healing, and serenity. As the summer heat sets in, make your hot tuba vital part of your healthy lifestyle.
