A Family History

It all started with an idea, a desire for change, and the pursuit of entrepreneurship. In 1991, the Bania family put up what would eventually become Aspen Spas. Combining years of experience in a  number of industries, including heating and air conditioning, the Banias knew well the values of perseverance, hard work, customer service, and a job well done.  

The family’s many years in the HVAC field exposed them to a wide variety of skills, including electrical, plumbing, and carpentry work, as well as the essential and special finesse of knowing how to treat a customer and their home with respect and care. In time, they were able to create an unrivaled hot tub with innovative, exclusive designs and quality that can only be made by their family-owned and operated St. Louis company.

As a family-owned and operated business, we treat every customer with kindness and respect. We have also developed a streamlined buying process that leads our customers to the perfect hot tub.

Our knowledgeable team of experts and partners is constantly working on designing the right spa model, the right series, and the right customizations. With Aspen Spas, you can truly make your spa your own creation.

We are committed to building efficient, long-lasting hot tubs while recognizing that spas are a quality-of-life choice for health and wellness. Thus, we have chosen to use eco-friendly components made from recycled plastic that enhance the quality and life expectancy of every Aspen Spa. In addition, we have built well-insulated, energy-efficient spas that help reduce operating costs.

The immense success of the company is often attributed to family matriarch Pat Bania, who served as sales manager while patiently building strong customer relationships that lasted years until her passing in 2010. The true heart and soul of Aspen, Pat was a friend to everyone who walked into the company doors, setting a precedent for future employees on how to treat customers—like family. Her spirit lives on in her sons, Tom and Sam, who used their varying personalities and strengths to continue to run the company in honor of their late mother.

Since its start in 1991, the company has consistently been guided by a simple philosophy: design spas for comfort, performance, and flexibility—and build them with the best components and techniques available. We focus on design, durability, efficiency, and reliability to bring customers the best spas in America, and continually innovate to improve every spa experience.  

Today, Aspen Spas has dealers across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. As an established spa manufacturer, we strive to have a clear understanding of the customer’s therapeutic needs and relaxation desires. Through our factory-direct showroom in St. Louis, MO, we are continually in touch with today’s spa customers.  

With such a rich history, there’s no doubt that Aspen Spas, just like its products, is going to be around for years to come.
