    I am currently in the process of renovating my home/backyard. What a process! But the more I work do, the more fun I'm having trying to find green solutions for everything.

    The most recent work I did was have an "eco friendly" hot tub/jacuzzi installed in the backyard.

    Not only does it make my yard look like a resort, but the energy bills are only $20/month!

    The hot tub I chose is called The Amore Bay by Dimension One Spas (d1spas.com). It's made of recycled milk jugs and is very well-insulated. Also, the water is cleaned with a special ionized filtration system so it saves a lot of water.

    I hadn't really thought a hot tub could add to the conservation movement, but I was proved wrong... and I couldn't be happier with the new addition to my backyard!

    If you're re-designing your backyard too, I highly recommend checking out this line of spas.

    Is this a sustainable choice or just a greener than the other hot tubs choice? Curious. I too love the hot tub life and have read up a bit on these. I would say they look pretty nice. Have you thought about linking it to a rainwater collection system in order to supply all the water for it. Now that would be taking to the next level.

    Hey it seems you have a very good environment at you home. Hot tub at the backyard is a great idea. Me too is so curious to see your backyard, can you post a pic of you backyard pic along with your hot tub. Actually I have a above ground pool at my backyard and now I am wondering change my backyard with replacing above ground pool with the hot tub. I don't have much space at my backyard and placing both Above ground pool and hot tub will occupy almost all the space so am thinking to replace a pool with the hot tub.
