As the festive season brings a chill to Vancouver Island, there’s no better time to warm up and unwind. For Mike Mclanaghan, owner of Westcoast Factory Direct Hot Tubs, the holiday season is the perfect time to invest in wellness, relaxation, and connection — values that inspired him to launch his hot tub business in 2010.
“Hot tubs help people reconnect, relax and improve their overall quality of life," McClenaghan says.
Hydrotherapy for health and happiness
Winter on Vancouver Island may not bring snow, but the damp chill makes warm water therapy particularly inviting. “Unlike a bath, a hot tub is self-contained and ready to go,” explains. “You can use it 365 days a year as your personal therapy station.”
Warm water soothes aches and pains which can aid muscle recovery. Hot tubs provide natural relief for conditions often experienced by older generations “Over the years, I’ve heard countless customers say it’s changed their lives,” adds. “Hot tubs help with relaxation, joint repair, and an overall sense of well-being.”
A holiday tradition in the making
Westcoast Factory Direct Hot Tubs has seen families use their products to create traditions. “Imagine soaking under the stars with a cup of hot cocoa,” says “It’s a perfect way to bond and take time for yourselves, away from the distractions of daily life.”
The holidays are also an ideal time to shop, with the Boxing Week sale offering steep discounts on 2024 models to make room for new inventory. “We carry over 500,000 dollars in stock, so you can physically see, touch, and even sit in the tubs before you buy,”explains.
“Our volume approach means reasonable prices and savings this time of year are the best since we need to make space for our 2025 collection ”
Unique hot tub space
What sets Westcoast Factory Direct Hot Tubs apart is its product range and service. McClenaghan has over 32 years of experience in the field, an element essential in knowing what is best for his clients needs and desires. “Anyone can sell you a hot tub, but what about water maintenance and follow-up?” he says. “We help customers choose a model that fits their needs and wants, and we’re there to support them after the purchase as well.”
Customers also appreciate the design of the tubs, including aluminum surrounds and perimeter insulation for ease of maintenance.
“This business is built on referrals and word of mouth,” McClenaghan shares. “Knowing that we’re helping people self-care in their own backyards keeps me motivated.”
With the arrival of new 2025 models just around the corner, now is the time to take advantage of the savings and to have a space in your home for relaxation. “It’s worth the drive to see the difference,” McClenaghan says. “We’re not just selling hot tubs - we’re helping people improve their lives.”
