The Arctic Spas Summit is one of the most popular models in the lineup — a versatile mid-to-large spa that offers serious performance without requiring the footprint or budget of the flagship models. For many New Brunswick families, it hits the ideal balance.
TL;DR
- The Summit is a versatile mid-to-large spa designed for 5–6 bathers

- Available with the integrated salt water system for simplified water care
- Ideal for families or couples who want meaningful features without going to the top of the range
Where the Summit Sits in the Lineup
The Summit is positioned between the compact Klondiker and the premium Summit XL in the Arctic Spas range. It offers genuine large-spa performance — significant jet count, multiple therapeutic seating zones, full-body lounge capability — without the footprint or price of the flagship models.
For buyers who want more than a mid-size spa but aren't convinced they need the very top of the range, the Summit is the natural landing point.
Seating Layout and Versatility
The Summit's interior is designed for multiple use cases. A full-body lounge seat offers the reclined, head-to-toe coverage that makes longer therapeutic soaks comfortable. Upright seating positions with targeted jet coverage address shoulders, neck, and lower back.
Open bench seating rounds out the layout, making the Summit work as well for a couple sharing the spa on a weeknight as for a group of five after a winter outdoor outing.
Jet Performance
The Summit carries a jet count that places it firmly in the performance category. Jets are distributed across dedicated therapeutic zones rather than concentrated in one or two seats, which means the therapeutic value is available to multiple bathers simultaneously.
The Summit's jets are individually controllable in direction and intensity, letting each bather personalize their experience.
Cold Climate Engineering
Like every model in the Arctic Spas lineup, the Summit is built around the full foam insulation system and freeze protection architecture designed for serious Canadian winters.
A Summit running through a New Brunswick winter doesn't require the heating system to work constantly to overcome heat loss — the insulation does the work, and the heater simply maintains what the foam protects.
Salt Water System Compatibility
The Summit is available with the Arctic Spas integrated salt water sanitizing system. For the Summit's typical usage profile — a family of four or five using the spa several times per week — the salt system's steady, automatic chlorine generation handles the water care load more consistently than manual dosing.
What Makes It Popular with Families
The Summit's consistent popularity with New Brunswick families comes down to a few practical factors. It is large enough that it doesn't feel crowded with three or four people in it. It is featured enough that adults use it for therapeutic purposes, not just socializing. And it is reasonably efficient to run relative to its size.
Installation and Site Requirements
The Summit requires a structurally sound base and a dedicated 240V electrical circuit. Poolboy handles delivery and installation across New Brunswick and will conduct a pre-delivery consultation to ensure your site is prepared.
Long-Term Ownership Experience
Arctic Spas models at this level are built for genuine longevity. The combination of quality components, efficient insulation, and a service network that supports the spa throughout its life means a Summit purchased today should be in service well over a decade from now with proper care.
New Brunswick Perspective
The Summit accounts for a significant portion of Poolboy's sales in New Brunswick every year, and the pattern is consistent: families who choose it report high satisfaction and, when asked, confirm they'd make the same choice again. In a province where a hot tub sees meaningful use from October through April, choosing a model that performs reliably through that window matters.
