Construction

Finished Futura Spa outside the Chesapeake, Virginia factory

BUILT IN CHESAPEAKE, VIRGINIA

Built with purpose. Built to be serviced.

What is behind the cabinet matters as much as what you see in the water. Every Futura Spa is built around a reinforced shell, carefully routed plumbing, dependable controls, and practical access for years of ownership.

THE FUTURA APPROACH

Comfort starts with sound construction.

We focus on the parts that make a spa enjoyable to own: strength where it counts, balanced hydrotherapy, efficient heat retention, and components that remain reachable when routine service is needed.

01 — SHELL

Strength beneath the surface

The Lucite acrylic surface is only the beginning. Behind it, the molded shell is reinforced with multiple layers of fiberglass and resin. This structural backing follows the contours of the seats and footwell to create a rigid, durable foundation.

Jet bodies and fittings are installed through the reinforced shell, then sealed and checked as the spa moves through production.

02 — PLUMBING & HYDROTHERAPY

Designed as a complete system

Hydrotherapy is more than a jet count. Pumps, manifolds, air controls, and water lines are arranged together so each seat receives the intended flow. Flexible lines allow precise routing to individual jets while larger plumbing moves water efficiently through the system.

Connections remain visible and reachable before the cabinet is closed, allowing the completed spa to be inspected and tested.

03 — FRAME & SERVICE ACCESS

Built so the important parts stay reachable

The structural frame supports the shell and cabinet while leaving room around pumps, plumbing, and controls. Removable cabinet panels provide access to the equipment bay and perimeter plumbing without digging through structural foam.

That service-first layout can make routine inspection and future maintenance more straightforward.

04 — CONTROLS & HEAT

Simple control, dependable operation

Current Futura models use Gecko digital controls to manage temperature, filtration, lighting, and pump operation. The control pack and heater are mounted together in the equipment bay for clear access during setup and service.

Programmable filtration helps the spa maintain clean, inviting water while operating around your schedule.

05 — INSULATION, CABINET & COVER
