Buying a Hot Tub

Buying a Hot Tub
As with buying a property there are three key points
that you need to consider before you buy and that old
phrase that we all know and have heard so many times
LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION and the same goes with a
Jacuzzi Hot Tub but in that case it is QUALITY QUALITY
QUALITY.

Do not purchase cheap inferior made junk - it's a simple
as that.

If you don't go for quality and buy a cheaper made product
then you will not be surprised if it has become brown
bread, or should I say dead, and expired with in a short
time.

With Hot Tubs as with many things in life it is either pay
up now or in the future and in many ways that is a bit
like how one can gain experience it either takes a great
amount of time or a great amount of money.

There is also the phrase buying cheap usually means buying
twice.

This could be likened to a motor car and when I started
driving you could buy an old car for peanuts but you
would then spend lots of money repairing it and keeping it
on the road. Equally you could buy a more modern car for
more money but then you would not have to repair it but in
reality it would cost you more or less the same. Often
the very cheap alternative would cost even more in real
terms as there would be times when the car was off the
road.

This is very similar to buying a Hot Tub as there is
little point getting a cheap false bargain if it breaks
down and is then out of use.

But of course if one is buying a new Hot Tub it is
nothing like purchasing a new motor car, because with
modern ,motor cars you only have to do the usual such as
check the coolant and oil. Change the oil and filter
every 10,000 miles or so. But please remember that
purchasing a spa is a lot more complicated.

You need not only to be able to maintain the Hot Tub but
you also have to maintain the water quality.

Probably in time you may encounter problems but that will
not be for many years if you have purchased a quality well
made product from a respected and well established
manufacturer

If you do not take care of the water quality then the
sensors may become clogged with calcium or calcified and
then problems may occur.

Whilst a car and a hot tub have various moving parts and
electronics the crucial difference is that a Hot Tub is
full of water which is being pumped around under
pressure from the pumps and motors

Obviously a cheap poorly constructed hot tub is a sure
fire recipe for a disaster

A car has been designed and engineered for many years
since Henry Ford introduced the model T and in many ways
has reached a certain state of perfection and it is
possible that a car could run for very many years with
minimal maintenance except the odd battery and oil
filter and indeed a change of oil. Equally if you buy a Hot
Tub from a major manufacturer who have been designing them
for many years you will get a first class product which
will require little maintenance.

So, my advice, is that you should only buy a product that
is well built by an American or Western internationally
recognized producer of Hot Tubs and then there is every
chance that the product will last and last and give years
of faultless performance.

The reason is simple in that the internationally recognized
producer backs his products with a real guarantee so if it
has a fault it falls back on the manufacturer not on you.
As you can imagine these manufacturers have had decades
of experience and they build them with the proper parts
and components so it will not fail and it is for that
reason and that reason alone that they are prepared to
provide a long life guarantee.
