Chris Hayes, Managing Director of both BISHTA and SPATA, says, “We congratulate all the winners of the BISHTA and SPATA Awards this year. BISHTA represents over 100 specialist hot tub companies across the British Isles and SPATA represents in excess of 170 companies. As we set our standards high for both trade associations, the award winners keep coming up with even more fabulous entries!

The outstanding quality of submissions of pool designs, this year has certainly created some stiff competition, making it a difficult job for the judges in determining who should receive what level of Award! The high quality of the entries in swimming pool design will aid us in showcasing what our members can do for their customers and why it is so important to choose a BISHTA or SPATA member to turn your dreams into reality”.

The quality of the winning pool designs entries are clearly outstanding. Each project generates the lifestlye aspiration of a holiday or spa feel in home or garden. And whilst some of the winning projects represent the high-end of the industry, owning this kind of facility needn’t cost the earth. According to industry data, the running costs of a standard hot tub range from a variable £1 - £1.50 per day (depending on outside temperature and amount of time used), and an indoor domestic pool at about £7.50 per day, compared with about £5 per day for an outdoor pool. Its not surprising then that an ever increasing number of people are looking to splash out on the 'health and wellness at home' trend.
