How to Install a Semi Inground Hot Tub in Miami-Dade
A semi inground hot tub offers the perfect balance between modern design and easy access—especially ideal for homes across Miami-Dade County. Whether you’re upgrading your patio in Coral Gables or adding luxury to a terrace in Brickell, Sensassion Pool & Spa helps make your vision a reality.
1. Site Selection & Preparation
The first step is choosing a strategic location—preferably near an electrical source, with partial shade and proper drainage. A semi inground spa works beautifully in sloped yards or elevated decks, offering both visual appeal and convenience.
2. Partial Excavation
This type of spa requires only partial digging—typically 18 to 24 inches deep. Once excavated, we prepare a concrete or gravel base to stabilize the shell and prevent shifting.
3. Plumbing & Electrical
All electrical work must meet Miami-Dade’s safety standards. A dedicated 220V GFCI breaker is required, and plumbing lines must be well protected. Our licensed technicians handle the setup, ensuring efficient water circulation and easy maintenance.
4. Spa Installation
The spa is lowered into place, partially embedded in the ground. The exposed portion can be dressed in wood, stone, or composite panels to match your outdoor style.
5. Final Design & Finishes
Enhance your new spa area with lighting, plants, or tilework to match Miami’s tropical ambiance. A semi inground installation adds value and creates a custom, high-end look.
