Title: Hang on Slopey
Post by: leweezo on December 15, 2014, 01:21:11 pm

just put a level on my deck and then pulled a line across it and realized that my deck is 1/2 inch higher on one side. I this gonna be a big problem? The deck is 8ft by 8ft..

Sounds like it could help rain run off better. Hopefully that doesn't slant toward the house.  1/2" over 8 to 10 feet shouldn't affect the hot tub that much.

Yea that's a 1/4" on the tub. Perfect, put the filter low if you can. Is the deck properly supported?

The tub will be about 4000 lbs filled, The deck is constructed of 5 doubled 2x12 joists each with 4 (4x6) posts  that go down 10 inches and sit into  pier blocks that sit on a 5 inch slab.. I think that be strong enough
