Welcome to our forum.
Hello Everyone!I'm an American living in the UK and really miss having a hot tub. Â So, we've been saving our pennies (pence, actually) and are close to making a decision.I have owned a HotSpring Sovereign (1996 - 2001) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Â However, I am unsure of any technology changes since this time.We have narrowed our choices down to the following:HotSpring SovereignBeachcomber 350Beachcomber 720XWe would like to hear opinions from folks who have considered any of these models, any comparisons you've made, etc. Â I've done a search on this forum for such postings, but have come up empty.Any, and all assistance will be greatly appreciated.... Â any my weary bones will thank you later once we're enjoying our new hot tub (which ever one we choose).TIA,Richard
The new '08 Sovereign has a dual moto massage in the lounger now, compared to the single you've had. Â The new circ pump uses around 28 watts compared to around 68 watts in pre '08 models. Â HS has also added lighting behind the spa pillows and the new Sovereign now has a stereo option. Â The photon torpedoes and transporter isn't quite ready yet......
Does the new circ pump perform the same as the old 68 watt version? Sounds like a good idea to minimize electrical costs. Can the new units be retrofitted to the pre 08 spas?
