 I could put one of our Optima up, but don't expect the squeaky clean showroom look- ours is over 3 years old and has a speck or two of dust inside.  
No critters though, thankfully.
I'd have to find some place to put the photos, though.

No Marquis dealers with a digital camera? I would love to see inside an Epic. A Caldera Geneva or Tahitian would be nice to see also.  :)

2005 Hot Spring Envoy still going strong. Million-Mile Club....

I want to get in the spa business so I can surf the internet and use Photoshop all day long.

Here is the inside of my Epic, but I didn't have a wide angle lens and these are close up shots, sorry but it will take 3....








And I have a question now looking at your phots, Gombo. It looks like the controls on your Envoy are on the outside of the tub..do you also have a set of controls inside of the tub? I don't remember that when I was looking last year.  :-/

Bonibelle,

All Hot Spring spas except the Jetsetter have the both an external and interior control panel.  The interior panel doesn't control the temperature, but allows you to adjust the lights, jets, and stereo sound (if equipped).

Thanks, I think that is a great feature...I guess I wasn't in tune to that when I was looking, since I don't remember it at all. :-/

Looks like a "Warning JED 103 DCS Hydro Quip"  ;)

Interior of my 2006 Reflections Granada made by DM Industries who also makes Vita. Don't know if Vita interiors are similar but would presume so.


It is full foamed but the foam extends to the sides once you get beyond the equipment area so it is really fullfoamed on 3 sides while the pumps no doubt keep this side toasty when it is on.

Not as clean looking as some of the others perhaps although I suspect they would look similar if you removed the shell used to create the equipment space. But it is kind of busy in there with 4 pumps, ozonator, heater, gate valves and control box.

Bonibelle: The controls on a Hotspring are mainly on the outside, there is no LCD on the inside that display temperature, only buttons for the jets and the lighting.  If I'm not mistaken, up until a couple years ago Hotspring had no controls on the inside of the spa.

Gombo:  Bonibelle beat me to it, but here is a pic of a 2 pump Marquis system, this is actually the Destiny model, but the panels are nearly identical:

Markee, are those the new "critter guards" on the bottom?

We made our own, but I think everyone should know about them and maybe Marquis offer them for sale. I wouldn't want to be the service tech that opens up to a nest of hornets or have a mouse hotel under my tub!

Phil needs critter guards! Phil is your deck wood stained? Or is it composit material?  It looks great!
