Orion Hot Tub

7-Person, 64 Oversized-Jet Therapy Spa by Platinum Spas — The Ultimate Bench-Seat Configuration

The biggest hot tub we sell that isn't a swim spa. Seven adults. Sixty-four oversized jets. Four pumps. All-bench seating designed for maximum conversation and powerful hydrotherapy — without a lounger eating up valuable seat space.

If you host family gatherings, love entertaining, or simply want a hot tub where everyone can face each other without anyone getting stuck on a "single" seat, the Orion is built for you. It's our largest therapy spa with an all-seat design — ideal for buyers who value conversation and seating capacity over a dedicated lounger.

Who the Orion Is Built For

The Orion isn't the right hot tub for everyone — and that's by design. This is for buyers who prioritize capacity, conversation, and powerful jet pressure over a dedicated lounger.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Large families

With 7 seats and no lounger hogging space, every family member gets a full, comfortable seat. No fighting over the lounger. No compromise seats.

🎉 Entertainers & hosts

The all-bench configuration means everyone can face each other for real conversation. Perfect for after-dinner relaxation, backyard parties, and hosting guests.

💪 Buyers who want powerful jets

Fewer, LARGER jets deliver more water volume per stream for deeper, more powerful massage pressure. 64 oversized jets move more water than many spas with 90+ smaller jets.

🏡 Buyers with larger backyards

At 91" × 91", the Orion is slightly larger than most 6-person spas. If you have the space, the extra capacity pays off every time you host.

Why the Orion Lasts 20 Years (Not 8)

The Orion is built with the same premium construction as our flagship Stargate — because at Factory Hot Tubs, we don't compromise build quality to hit lower price points. Every component is chosen for longevity in Canadian climates.

✓ Platinum Premium Shield Insulation

Three-layer insulation system: spray foam bonded directly to the shell, foil-backed perimeter wrapping inside the cabinet, and 2lb hard rigid insulation panels on the cabinet walls. Premium energy efficiency without burying the plumbing.

✓ Welded 304 Stainless Steel Frame

No wood. No rot risk. No termite vulnerability. The Orion's frame will outlast the rest of the spa. Unlike full-foam hot tubs that hide wooden frames — and the rot and pest damage that comes with them — the Orion is built for decades of Ontario use.

✓ Aristech Acrylic Shell

Aristech is the world's leading acrylic supplier for premium spas. Dual hand-rolled fibreglass backing makes the shell self-supporting — it won't sag, flex, or delaminate under the weight of 450+ gallons of water and 7 adults.

✓ Quality Plumbing Construction

Premium plumbing systems using both gear-clamped and glued connections where appropriate for long-term reliability. Combined with the Orion's modern insulation design, all plumbing remains accessible for service if needed — unlike full-foam hot tubs where plumbing is permanently buried.

✓ Molded ABS Pan Floor with Fibreglass Backing

Insulated bottom prevents ground-related heat loss. ABS is weather-proof, rodent-resistant, and structurally sound.

Health & Wellness Benefits

Regular hot tub soaking delivers real, measurable health improvements — and the Orion's 64 oversized-jet configuration delivers powerful therapeutic pressure for serious hydrotherapy:

Stress & Anxiety Relief

Warm water and hydrotherapy trigger endorphin release and reduce cortisol. A 20-minute soak reduces stress biomarkers measurably.

Better Sleep Quality

Soaking 90 minutes before bed drops your core temperature at exactly the right time to trigger deep sleep. Studies show 15-25% improvement in sleep onset time.

Arthritis & Joint Pain

Buoyancy reduces joint load by up to 90%. Warm water increases blood flow to sore joints. Regular hydrotherapy is recommended by rheumatologists for osteoarthritis.

Muscle Recovery

The Orion's 3 high-flow therapy pumps delivering oversized jets provide deeper massage pressure than smaller jets — ideal for targeted muscle recovery and chronic tension relief.

Orion Hot Tub FAQ

How much does the Orion hot tub cost?

The Orion is our flagship bench-seat therapy hot tub and sits in the premium category. For current pricing and promotions, contact our Oakville showroom directly at 905-338-9995. We offer free GTA delivery, financing through FinanceIt with approvals in minutes, and trade-ins on any major brand.

How many people does the Orion seat?

The Orion seats 7 adults comfortably in an all-bench configuration — no lounger. This maximizes usable seating and makes it ideal for families and entertaining. The 91" × 91" footprint gives everyone plenty of room without feeling cramped.

What is the difference between the Orion and the Stargate?

The Orion is slightly larger (91×91 vs 88×88), seats one more person (7 vs 6), and uses an all-bench layout with 64 oversized jets. The Stargate has a full-body lounger and 90 smaller jets. Choose the Orion if you prioritize seating capacity and want everyone facing each other. Choose the Stargate if you want a dedicated full-body lounger for solo therapy sessions.

Why does the Orion have fewer jets than the Stargate?

The Orion uses 64 OVER-SIZED jets compared to the Stargate's 90 standard jets. Oversized jets deliver more water volume per jet for deeper, more powerful massage pressure. For buyers who prefer fewer, more powerful streams over many smaller streams, the Orion's jet configuration is ideal.

Is the Orion a full foam hot tub?

No. The Orion uses modern layered insulation — spray foam on the shell, rigid insulation panels, foil-backed perimeter wrapping, and a welded 304 stainless steel frame. This provides excellent energy efficiency while keeping all plumbing and components fully serviceable. Unlike full foam hot tubs, the Orion will not trap moisture, rot a wooden frame, or bury your plumbing.

Does the Orion include delivery?

Yes. We include free GTA delivery and setup with every Orion purchase. We service Oakville, Burlington, Mississauga, Toronto, Milton, Hamilton, and surrounding areas.

What are the electrical requirements for the Orion?

The Orion requires a dedicated 240V/60A circuit with GFCI protection.

Can I use the Orion in Canadian winters?

Absolutely. The Orion is engineered specifically for Canadian winters. Its Platinum Premium Shield insulation, welded stainless steel frame, and 5.5kW heater maintain perfect temperature even in -20°C conditions. The all-bench design is especially popular for family winter gatherings.
