Hotpod floating spa

Juniper Foo | Oct 20, 2006

Fancy your own hottub floating paradise? Hotpod has a nice one here. You get to swim and you get to spa at the same time, which is what R&R should be all about. The Hotpod looks easy enough to set up. According to the literature, you only have to connect the suction and intake hose of the pool. The pod then takes water right from your pool heater and pumps it through six hydro-engineered jets. Meanwhile, it's cosy enough for up to four adults without having to sit on each other's laps (unless so desired). The only catch: It's doubtful any of the public or condominium pools here in Asia will let you connect this to the pool's heater. Shucks.
