Jacuzzi

Jacuzzi is certainly no stranger to the bathroom market, being at the forefront of technology since their invention of the whirlpool bath in the 1950’s.

Bathroom City has been affiliated with Jacuzzi since our establishment in 1986, and has continually stocked the latest designs and technology.

Not only does Jacuzzi feature in our showrooms on a regular basis but also on our blog!

Yes, if you hadn't noticed we simply love talking about Jacuzzi, why? Because the prestigious brand has so much going on, whether it be new products, events or technology, Jacuzzi has got to be one of the most active brands in the bathroom industry.

Combining a perfect solution of style and functionality, the famous whirlpool designer is edging its way more and more into people’s homes, with the development of more compact whirlpool technology and a range of designs which can accompany almost any bathroom setting, extinguishing the need for a huge open space for a hot tub to unwind.

Previously, we’ve perused lesser know products by Jacuzzi, concentrating on the vast range of sanitaryware the brand has to offer; this time though, we’ll be looking at the one of the brands most applauded collections, whirlpool baths.

A whirlpool bath is the pinnacle of luxury in any modern family bathroom and Jacuzzi’s range of different designs promises everything from deep sensual massage to vigorous rejuvenation.

The Aura Whirlpool Bath from Jacuzzi oozes home spa chic, with its spacious sunken design, which recesses into the floor, the luxury whirlpool combines stunning modern artistry and function for premium relaxation. 

The Aura Whirlpool Bath

The two main characteristics which make the Aura Whirlpool Bath stand out from the crowd, is its unique shape and choice of Teak, Wenge and Italian Marble finishes for the deck surround, which can play home to a drink or two when submersed in warm bubbles.

Along with its eye catching styling, the contemporary whirlpool offers several technical features which separate it from the rest of the market including; rotating back jets, an integral shower handset, underwater lights, sanitising system and soft headrests, for an exceptional bathing experience.

The Aura range from Jacuzzi displays a full spectrum of shapes and designs, supplying a size or function suited to any modern installation.

A more traditional take on whirlpool bathing is the Sharp collection; which exudes class with its more versatile design suitable for standard bathroom suites.

The Sharp 70

The stand out factor of both the Sharp 70 and Sharp 75 whirlpool baths is the shape, and not necessarily because it is pretentious or awe-inspiring; it’s because it’s so wonderfully ordinary, supplying all the luxury of a whirlpool installation without having to give up too much space.

Although streamlining a more extravagant whirlpool into a more compact space, the Sharp 70 still makes room for an abundance of features including: a seat, 6 rotating jets, 4 jets, a head rest and sanitising system; packing superior function in a versatile design.

Steering more towards a hot tub, the Aquasoul whirlpool range offers a variety of sizes depending on space but primarily looks to occupy larger bathrooms or wet rooms, with the Aquasoul Extra, Aquasoul Corner 140, Aquasoul Corner 155 and Aquasoul Double taking centre stage.

Each design from the Aquasoul collection from Jacuzzi offers a comprehensive range of features, none more so then the Aquasoul Extra; a robust 3 seater whirlpool bath which blurs the lines between bath and hot tub.

The Aquasoul Extra is an unrivalled modern design with its sleek contemporary styling and generous bathing space: “Extra” a fitting name for a whirlpool bath that offers 3 seats.   

Amongst its potential for 3 people to relax simultaneously, the robust bath incorporates 10 rotating jets, 6 jets, 4 fixed jets, a sanitising system, underwater light and heater.

The Aquasoul Extra

With Bathroom City’s long history with Jacuzzi (since our establishment in fact) we can support each and every one of their designs, guaranteeing quality, easy to use functions and bold styling.

Brand Focus: Jacuzzi

Home to the rich and famous, athletes and the frolics of certain Big Brother Z listers, the humble hot tub is gradually creeping into normal society, becoming more affordable and appropriate for a standard family bathroom.

Often misunderstood as being associated with canapés and champagne rather than standard home bathing, a Jacuzzi hot tub or whirlpool bath is actually an ideal bathroom solution, providing a system which helps muscles and makes you feel invigorated at an affordable price.

The Twin Series whirlpool baths are luxurious and versatile

With a range consisting of big inset hot tubs right though to bath shower combinations, Jacuzzi whirlpool baths have a collection so comprehensive that you can find a solution for any size bathroom.

The Twin Series Whirlpool Baths are a perfect example of Jacuzzi’s versatility, combining a stylish whirlpool with massage jets and a designer shower enclosure, the bath shower combination provides the ultimate in practical luxury. 

For larger home spa style installations, the Aura whirlpoolbaths summarise all that is grand about the modern hot tub but still promise a range which can be utilised in a range of settings. The Aura Corner 140 for example is ideal even for modern bathroom settings, with its ‘Tardis-like’ proportions and choice of stylish Teak, Wenge or Marble deck which give it that modern spa look. 

The Aura Whirlpool baths exude the class of a home spa

For that classic hot tub design, the Nova Whirlpool Baths are a round concept which allows for more than one person to enjoy the deep water massage simultaneously, the perfect solution for larger bathrooms and dedicated spas. 

It is easy to get lost in the vast array of Jacuzzi whirlpool designs and sometimes people forget that the luxury brand also offer a complete range of stylish sanitaryware and brassware to complete your modern installation.

With designs ranging from Cognito, Nexus and Republic basins to name a few, right through to the truly unique Morphosis, Nexus and Sanctuary bidets, not to mention the vast range of toilets and brassware at hand, the Jacuzzi collection outside of hot tubs is both distinctive and stylish, the perfect compliment to any contemporary installation.

With a name which will echo well into the future, the Jacuzzi brand is certainly a name worth buying into, with designs which stand the test of time in both style and durability. 

A Brief Guide to Relax Your Inner Athlete

2012 is certainly the year for sport. So far we have been treated to the Euros, Wimbledon and with the Olympics just around the corner; it’s hard to get away from images of athletes in peak physical condition to make us feel bad about our ever growing bellies.

We’re sure that at some point over the last couple of months you have gained some inspiration and attempted a jog to the corner shop, drank a protein shake or kicked a football so badly it would make your Nan blush.

Either way, the journey to your summer six pack may have been haltered by laying dormant over the winter months, having a crack at some exercise, realising you’re way out of your depth and ultimately picking up an injury.

It’s sure to say one thing we can all do the same as athletes is relax; and with so many scientific ways to get us back to our peak performance, it would be rude not to give them a go.

Ice bath

Firsts the worst, seconds the best and thirds a whirlpool bath and then another really nice one. Yes, the ice bath is the least appealing form of recovery, so we thought we’d get it over and done with.

Ice baths take around 15 minutes and are between 12 and 15 degrees Celsius. Once you have filled your bath with 2-3 bags of shop bought ice and ran the cold tap until full, the initial 2 minutes of submersion is the most horrifying.

After a couple of minutes of moaning, thinking of England and outright screaming you are finally on the road to recovery as the ice cold water tightens your blood vessels and reduces swelling.

Stay submerged for around 15 minutes and on escape you will soon feel a difference in your muscles and also feel as if you have been hit by a tranquiliser dart, as the bath will help you fall asleep with in the following hour.

Epsom salt

Far less traumatic and a great alternative to the ice bath, adding Epsom salts to a bath provides our body with much needed Magnesium.

Here’s for the ‘sciencey’ bit. Magnesium is the forth most important positive ion in the body (hang in there) and we need it to help pas toxic material and increase muscle tone.

By adding Epsom salts to your bath after a work out, you will charge your body with a boost of Magnesium, which will aid recovery, prevent arthritis, decrease the chance of heart disease and doesn’t require 3 bags of ice you will be pleased to hear.  

Whirlpool bath

Moving on to more luxurious recovery aids, whirlpool baths are becoming increasingly more popular and affordable.

Jacuzzi Hexis Whirlpool Bath available at Bathroom City

No longer seen as a major extravagance and more a legitimate option for any home, the soothing baths give you a high quality hydro massage on tap (sorry).

If you are continuously spooning footballs, slipping on banana skins or are a genuine athlete, then the amount of money spent on ice, massages and Epsom salts per year could render this purchase a worthy investment and an enjoyable one at that.

Whirlpool hydro massage eases your muscles and increases you circulation, allowing cells to receive more oxygen (more science, sorry) and feels lovely (important bit).

 Jacuzzi

The market for Jacuzzis has began to span further than millionaires, dodgy night club owners and people from the 70’s.

Finally the Jacuzzi is being deemed a sensible purchase for family homes and why not? They’re relaxing, fun and great for the muscles of our inner athlete.

Perfect for concentrating on certain muscles, the Jacuzzis warm, vigorous bubbling can help people with arthritis, get the blood flowing (helping circulation) and help muscles slowly rebuild after injury, giving them a just enough movement to begin strengthening.

Why not come to our showroom and try out our huge range of whirlpool baths and Jacuzzis to see whether these products suit your lifestyle?

You may add a number of fixtures to the corner bath such as showers, jets, doors and curtains to ensure a personalized spa experience.

In modern bathrooms, corner baths can be fitted with a Jacuzzi or whirlpool, shower jet systems and even hydro therapy massagers to help you relax and let go of all your inhibitions and stress. Just lie back, and let your senses take over!
