Which Hot Tub Brands Are Made in the USA?

A lot of American spa brands originally had their base of operations in California.
But over the years, many of the biggest names in the industry moved production to factories in Mexico (even though they may still keep their official headquarters at these original US locations, so it can sometimes be hard to tell!).
Lower production costs means more profit for them—but also a potentially inferior product for you.
If you’re looking for a new spa, we put together this list of brands that still manufacture within the USA, so you can be sure you're buying American.
Alps Spas
All of our spas are custom ordered and built to last. From our steel frame construction to our environmentally safe acrylic backing and ABS bottom, you can rest easy knowing you bought a quality product. All spas are water tested for twelve hours to ensure that all components are working properly.
We are happy to sell direct to our Atlanta neighbors. Come visit us at one of our two Atlanta locations or call us for more information at (678) 916-4300. If you are outside the Atlanta area please contact us for your nearest authorized dealer.

How to be sure you're buying a quality spa
Before you invest in a large purchase like a hot tub, check the Better Business Bureau rating of the manufacturer.
Always buy from an A+ if you can! A rating of a C or lower is a sign that the brand should be avoided.
