FAQs About Pergolas for Hot Tubs
What are the best ways to create privacy for a hot tub pergola?
Privacy is one of the main reasons to add a pergola over your spa. You can enhance it further by:
- Adding privacy panels, curtains, or lattice
- Installing a retractable canopy
- Growing hedges, vines, or tall plants around the structure
With the right setup, your hot tub becomes a secluded sanctuary.
How do I measure for a pergola over my hot tub?
Start with your hot tub size. Standard hot tubs range from 5 to 9 feet wide and 29 to 39 inches tall. Add space for entry/exit, servicing, and any surrounding seating.
Measure the total area where you want the pergola posts to land. This gives you the post-to-post size needed. Then choose the post height that gives you the right headroom.
What else can I use a pergola for near my hot tub?
Hot tub pergolas do more than just provide cover—they help define the entire outdoor living area. You can:
- Create a relaxing seating area beside the hot tub
- Attach a pergola to your house or deck for a complete outdoor room
- Expand your space with a second pergola for a bar, grill, or outdoor kitchen
Our attached and deck pergola kits make it easy to transform your backyard into a fully functional retreat.
How do I measure my space so that my pergola fits over the hot tub?
A good rule of thumb for sizing is – is there space to comfortably get in and out of the hot tub, service the hot tub, and relax in outdoor seating outside of the hot tub?
If you haven’t yet purchased the hot tub, let’s start with the size of the hot tub. They typically come in one of three standard sizes – small, medium, and large. Small hot tubs seat between 2-4 guests, medium hot tubs seat 4-6, and large hot tubs can comfortably accommodate 7 or more. With those considerations in mind, you’ll then want to measure the dimensions of the pad that will support the hot tub and any space around it needed for hot tub repairs and servicing, as well as a seating area you might include outside of the hot tub. Hot tubs typically range from 5 feet to 9 feet wide and 29 inches to 39 inches tall. Sizes and dimensions can vary depending on the hot tub manufacturer. Add the amount of space you’d like on the outside perimeter to accommodate seating, and that will be the place where you want the pergola posts to land.
After you determine the post to post size, you’ll be able to select the height of your pergola by choosing your pergola post length.
Refer to our guide on how to measure for a pergola when you’re ready to select the pergola size for more information on pergola width, length, and height. Our DIY pergola kits come in over 90 standard sizes and custom sizes that will accommodate unique dimensions.
What are the best uses for pergolas for hot tubs?
If you want to add a touch of charm and protection to your outdoor spa area, there’s no better way to do it than with a hot tub pergola. Our pergolas are quality built structures that can add a level of coverage from the elements with minimal effort. A pergola for hot tub designs can also be incorporated in to a neighboring area.

You can use it as an opportunity to expand the seating around around your hot tub for more privacy, and to create another unique space to spend time outdoors. Another option is to add an additional pergola to an adjoining area to build a new outdoor kitchen or living room. Our deck pergola kits offer a way to create an extra room to expand your backyard design even further! So with our pergolas, the sky is the limit for making your new outdoor experience a reality!
