    This is probably a long time coming, but I wanted to thank you for all your assistance on installing my swim spa. You answered all our questions and when we needed you to come down to the house to look at something, you came the next day. Service could not have been any better. You have no idea how this swim spa has changed my life. I’m in it at least two hours a day. One day I swim for 35 minutes, do crunches and leg raises, and then I relax with all the jets going. The second day I run for 20 minutes, row for 20 minutes, then do crunches and leg raises, and of course you have to relax as well! On the weekends I love having people over–it’s a great place for good conversation. I just want to thank you for coming down to the house and giving us suggestions on how to get the swim spa in the backyard. Life will never be the same again. Much better than just a hot tub I was going to get. Great service. Thanks.

    I just wanted to say thank you for the great service. We really appreciate the quick response as our kids value their hot tub time more than playing games!! From what we noticed upon my return from a weekend out of town, the job was extremely well done. The interior was sparkling and the jets at full power again. Please pass along my thanks to the technicians who completed [..]

    I wanted to thank you for the first class service you provided when I recently purchased my first hot tub from you. The home visit prior to placing the order was very reassuring and the installation and follow up has been excellent. I now wonder how I lived without one!

QUESTIONS? WE GOT YOU!

What factors help the hot tub last longer?

Hot tubs can last quite a long time if they are built from sturdy components.  The most important component is the hot tub shell material.

Cheaper hot tubs use vinyl, similar to a swimming raft, which can puncture and wear over time.  There are also a budget hot tub material that are plastics that may fade in the sun, warp and bend or even crack over time.  Most high end spas today use a high quality acrylic made by only two manufacturers:  Lucite acrylic and Aristech Acrylics.  Even having acrylic from one of these manufacturers is still not a guarantee there will be any blistering or cracking of the shell, so they sell various grades of acrylic to hot tub manufacturers.

The lower priced acrylic is a single layer sheet that requires the application of fiberglass backing by the manufacturer to provide support to the shell.  The more expensive grade of acrylic has an ABS plastic layer under the acrylic layer to provide for a thicker material.  A sign that a particular hot tub manufacturer is using the high quality ABS backed acrylic can be seen in the depth of their deepest spas.  The thicker the shell material begins as , the deeper the material will pull in a thermoformer to create the ultimate spa shell.

Other factors of hot tub longevity include the use of quality components, high quality cabinet material (nowadays  pvc cabinets outlast wood cabinets), and even how well the spa water chemistry is maintained by the owner.

Can I save money by using an ozonator?

Yes, the use of an ozonator will cut down the amount of conventional sanitizer needed. The reduction will vary from 25% to 35%, depending on spa usage and amount of run time. These devices use electricity to run, but the amount is really quite minimal.

Should I use a 110-volt or 220-volt electric heater?

We recommend using the 220v option whenever practical, especially on full-sized spas. A 220v system offers the advantage of faster heating which reduces your “tubbing down-time” factor. There is also more amperage available to operate multiple motors, jets, lights, etc. A properly hard-wired 220v system has no cords to trip over or become unplugged. Contrary to popular misconception, there is no significant cost difference in heating with 110v system versus a 220v system. For a truly “portable” installation, 110v is generally more practical.
