Arctic Hot Tubs in Durham and Peterborough

It isn't easy to say who invented hot tubs. If you happened to live in Iceland or the Kootenay wilderness thousands of years ago, you could enjoy slipping into hot, bubbling water whenever your aching back needed a vacation from the hardships of hunting mammoths and saber-toothed tigers. Indeed, in a time without any other source of hot water, the natural hot springs that occur in all-too-few places must have been miraculous finds. Perhaps in times gone by, someone decided that the feeling of a good soak in burbling hot water shouldn't be restricted to those living over a geothermal vent. And the hot tub was born.

We've come a long way since then. Arctic Hot Tubs (www.arctichottubs.com), with locations in Whitby and Peterborough, offers dozens of designs and help customers in the Toronto realize full spa visions, indoor and out. Our website showcases not only hot tubs, but related outdoor structures such as gazebos and trellises. With our "build-a-spa" feature, you can design your own mini-resort and have them put it together for you.

Arctic Hot Tubs offers a vast range of possible products, but they have something in common. Hot tubs are not bathtubs. A bathtub is a piece of plumbing. It is about daily hygiene. A hot tub is about relaxation. It is about sensual experience; indulging your body, and cheating the cold of winter. A hot tub is to a bathtub what a fine meal is to an energy bar. You can live without it. But it isn't really living.

But hot tubs are only the centerpiece of a spa. Though it's hard to imagine, at some point you'll want to get back out of the tub, and that is why Arctic Hot Tubs also carries massage chairs, saunas, pool tables, wrap around bars, and other accessories to complete the spa experience. We will, in fact, set the stage for the greatest parties since the mammoth hunters found the hot springs.

Arctic Hot Tubs has two locations in the greater Toronto Area: in Peterborough (705-740-1000), and in Whitby(905-665-5899). We also have a fan page on Facebook and a Twitter account (arctichottubs). Come check us out. You won't be disappointed.
