Title: Install how close to shed?
Post by: Richie_NY on May 30, 2020, 11:19:00 am

Hello.  We are installing the hot tub next to our shed.  What's the closest I can install it?  What's the minimum amount of space I need to leave?  Thanks.

I would give yourself two feet of space between the tub and any other wall - this gives technicians plenty of space to remove all four side panels and service the tub without removing it from it's location. 

At least a foot is suggested, but two gives everyone including yourself more space to work around the tub. I personally like to have full access around the tub so I can walk around and condition my cover monthly - but I'm also OCD and my cover has strong UV exposure year round.

I'd say 30".

I appreciate your help.  I was asking if I can put it very close to a shed for space purposes, not what's ideal.

The answers you got were relative to space considerations relative to service which is what matters most in that line of questioning.
