Hot Springs Grandee is here...
summerside9000:
yes very nice. 6 inches and reinforced with conduit under the slab.
let it rain /snow/flood etc. that thing is not going anywhere haha.
Was the concrete air entrained and min 25 mPa?
My pad was 35mPa and 4% air entrained. Up here in Canada we get the -30 Celsius temperatures during the winter.
The air in the concrete prevents it from damage from the cold. Flaking/cracking etc when exposed to hot water in freezing temps.
Mine is all good to go and waiting for the first flakes here any day. 101 degrees is about right these days.
TwinCitiesHotSpring:

Hottubdan. I made the steps for less then $100.00 bucks. Very simple, 2 2x8x10 pressure treated lumber and 2 8' veranda(Home Depot)decking, some deck screws, 90 degree brackets and a quart of grey outdoor stain.

Great job on the steps. I also knew I could build my own for much less than they cost at the spa stores or on line. Both of mine probably cost about $100 plus I added LED under them to illuminate when it's dark out. Made for a safer entrance and exit.

Thanks again for all the nice responses. Summerside9000 yes it was 3% air entrained with a min 25 mPa. Reinforced with a grid of 1/2in rebar every 12inches. That concrete slab will still be there long after this hot tub is gone and then will probably be replaced with another hot springs tub. Lol
