To fill an 89-gallon tub with ice, you would need approximately 747 pounds of ice.
8.35 pounds. Because ice is a solid, technically you cannot measure ice using gallon as the units. However, a gallon of water that has turned to ice will have the same weight before and after freezing. This will not be true if the temperature is lowered even further or the ice is under pressure. At 4 degrees C, just before freezing, a gallon of water weighs 3.79 kg or 8.35 pounds. =============================================================================== All the above do not take into account that water expands in volume as it freezes (that is why Ice floats) thus if you started with a gallon of water, you would have more than a gallon of ice. The density of ice is 0.9169, the density of water is 1.0 Therefore a gallon of Ice will weigh 7.5598405 pounds or 3470.4665 grams, while a gallon of water weighs 8.245 pounds or 3785 grams.

To calculate the appropriate size of a rubbermaid tub, you need to consider the volume rather than just the surface area. However, if you assume a standard height of 5 inches, the equivalent rubbermaid tub to 88 square inches in surface area would be approximately a 24-gallon tub.
To calculate the volume of the tub in cubic inches, multiply the three dimensions (60 x 32 x 20). Then convert the volume to gallons by dividing by 231 (there are 231 cubic inches in a gallon). So, the tub would need approximately (60 x 32 x 20) / 231 gallons of water to fill up.
No, having water and ice in a hot tub doesn't necessarily ruin it. It's important to remove the ice and allow the tub to thaw slowly to prevent any damage. Check for any signs of damage or leaks before using it again.
