Is a Jetted Tub Worth It

A whirlpool bathtub, also commonly referred to as a jetted tub or a Jacuzzi tub, can be a great addition to a bathroom. These tubs can help relax sore muscles and joints and can be especially desirable for people who exercise often or those with medical conditions such as arthritis.

How much does it cost to install a jetted tub?

The total cost to install a jetted whirlpool bathtub ranges between $1,500 and $17,000 with an average price of $6,500. This price includes the cost of the tub itself as well as installation charges and materials.

What is the difference between a jetted tub and a whirlpool tub?

The first whirlpool tub was patented by Jacuzzi. The company’s products have since become synonymous with in-home spa tubs and, while Jacuzzi is a brand name, it is often used interchangeably with “whirlpool” or simply any jetted tub. Whirlpool is the generic term for any tub with water jets installed.
