3 Ways Augmented Realty Can Help You Select a Hot Tub

Hot tub shopping has dramatically changed in recent years. While showrooms give you an authentic way to touch and see the hot tubs in person, you can take your hot tub shopping experience one step further with modern technology.

Adding a hot tub at home is a big transition and companies want to provide customers with the best experience possible. Augmented reality apps can provide a lot of assistance for your hot tub selection process. Learn how AR technology can help you make the most informed decision on a hot tub purchase without any regrets.

1. Hot Tub Location

AR-based hot tub apps allow you to turn your camera on and insert a digital 3D render of a hot tub. With the technology, you have the ability to see exactly where you want the hot tub located. You can lock a digital hot tub into a position and move your camera around the specific area to see how the hot tub looks.

With the full visualization, you can pick the most ideal spot for your hot tub. For example, you could be torn between a covered patio area and an outdoor deck. With an AR app, you can compare both areas and make the best selection for comfort and for areas that are aesthetically pleasing.

The advanced AR technology will allow you to have someone interact with the space and have even clearer visuals. For example, you set a digital hot tub up on a deck and then have someone walk in front of the camera. The person can showcase how much space you have around the hot tub and where some of the best positions would be.

With the AR app, you can determine a more precise location so you do not need to worry about moving the hot tub once you have it installed and delivered. You will find it a lot easier to move and adjust a digital hot tub.

2. Size Comparisons

Along with the location of the hot tub, you can compare specific hot tub models. Virtual hot tubs come in different designs and styles, allowing you to quickly compare different options. Once you select a specific model in an app, you can capture a screenshot of the hot tub in the location. Then, you have the option to change the hot tub model and see how different sizes look.

With the screenshots, you can quickly scroll back and forth to see how the hot tubs look in different positions. Some apps may have the capabilities to showcase hot tubs with the covers on and off as well. With the full visualizations, you can choose the best size options to fit your space.

3. Décor & Styles

You want a hot tub that not only provides relaxation and comfort, but can also provide a nice aesthetic as well. With AR apps, you have the opportunity to see different color options for a variety of hot tubs.

Some of the apps may also let you add other digital details like hot tub accessories. For example, you may want to install stairs that lead up to the hot tub or add the visual of some plants that surround the hot tub.

The little details will help showcase a full vision of the hot tub design. You can really play around with color options and decide to make some décor changes before the hot tub arrives. For example, you may want to replace an outdoor throw rug that will match with the new hot tub better than the rug you currently have. When you make all of these decisions beforehand, the process becomes a lot easier.
