The McKinley is the large-format option in the Classic Series — seven seats, 40 jets, and a footprint that gives everyone room. For families where multiple people soak at once, or buyers who want to ensure they never outgrow their spa, the McKinley removes those concerns.
TL;DR
- Large seven-person Classic Series spa with 40 jets
- Spacious layout designed for regular multi-person use
- Full foam insulation and freeze protection for New Brunswick winters
- Salt water system available as an upgrade
- Best for families who want maximum capacity at the Classic Series price point
Who the McKinley Is Designed For
The McKinley is for families who want to avoid the common mistake of buying too small. Seven seats means it can handle a family of four with room for guests, or serve a household where multiple people soak on a regular basis without anyone feeling crowded out.
Buyers who have owned a smaller spa and wished for more space — or who have visited a friend’s large spa and noticed the difference — tend to find the McKinley’s footprint is what they were looking for.
Seating and Layout
Seven seats across a spacious layout means each bather has room to stretch. The mix of therapy seats and open positions means the McKinley works for a single person who wants to move around the spa and try different jet positions, as well as for a full group soak.
The layout is designed to keep the spa feeling open rather than crowded, which is a meaningful difference from some mid-size spas pushed to their capacity.
Jets and Hydrotherapy
With 40 jets across a larger interior, the McKinley delivers consistent therapeutic coverage across the seated positions. Lower back, shoulder, and leg zones are all addressed. The jet coverage is not as concentrated as a smaller spa with the same count, but the placement is designed to serve multiple bathers simultaneously.
For families where one person uses the spa for serious therapeutic purposes while others soak more casually, the McKinley provides enough coverage that both uses are served without compromise.
Installation Requirements for a Large Spa
A large spa requires careful site preparation. You will need a structurally sound concrete pad or reinforced deck, a dedicated 240V electrical circuit, and adequate access for delivery. The McKinley’s larger size means more water weight — structural planning matters more than for smaller models.
Poolboy handles delivery and installation throughout New Brunswick and can assess site requirements before the spa arrives. For buyers in older homes or on existing decks, a pre-delivery site consultation is worth arranging.
New Brunswick Perspective
The McKinley is a strong seller among New Brunswick families with active outdoor lifestyles. Parents who buy it often note that it becomes a gathering point for teenagers and young adults during the winter months — a social function that a smaller spa could not serve. At the Classic Series price point, the McKinley is the most family-capable option without moving to the Custom range.
