By-pass Filtration
SerjicalStrike:
--- Quote --- That's all well and good. But, if I may ask - if you truly don't care about any of this, why do you have full-page rant in the middle of a thread with the TOPIC - By-pass Filtration?
It would appear you care very much about all this.
And other than you, I truly don't see many folks knocking the various systems. As you say - they all work.
HS doesn't draw unfiltered water into the plumbing. Simple statement, and it contains no words such as "Better, Best, " or similar.
Sundance puts a larger circ pump on some of it's high-end models. They move a bunch of water, though nobody including SD claims it costs the same to do so. Their jet pumps have NO filtration on those models, but you don't really need it when the filter system is so powerful. The rest of their models use a bypass system where part of the water goes through the jet pumps unfiltered.
That's all we are saying! Two different ways (Actually three) to get to the same end.

AGREED and well spoken

I can't help but get a chuckle out of all of this...
Not in a funny HAHA sort of way either but by the fact there was 11+ pages on one feature that shouldn't be the basis of a buying decision. How does this differ from FF or TP? It doesn't...
The reality is that 90% of the prospects looking at spas buy off of less than 10% of the features. We bang our heads against the wall selling our features when in reality, people just want to know if it's as relaxing and soothing as we say it is. It's hot water, jets and a pump or 3.
It's time we stand back and look at this posturing and realize most are only trying to convince themselves of the benefits of any ONE feature.
That being said, the real reality is that 99% of us have limited in-depth knowledge of most of other manufacturers nor have taken the time to fully understand their concepts. Most here have been with one manufacturer for a very long time and it's not hard to become brainwashed into thinking it's the ONLY way to do things... Take it from me...It took me a long time to see that as I too was brainwashed into thinking the same thing. It's human nature so I don't fault anyone because of it.
If you're reading this behemoth thread trying to gain knowledge into spa shopping and what's really important, I feel very sorry for.

It is funny but you might be surprised. Had a fella come in yesterday that was set to buy a Brand X spa down the road.
When he asked the guy if this was the best spa made, the salesman replied, "Well, HotSpring's are the best, but we're the second best." The customer was shocked to hear this and came down to see "the best".
After I explained the benefits of our spas (yes, including the 100% No-bypass filtration), he asked me "What do you think about Brand X Spas?"
I answered, "They're fine spas and you'd probably be very happy if you owned one."
He replied, "I'm glad to hear you say that. I really like that you guys filter 100% of the water and that is something I'd like my spa to do."
I replied "Well, sir, it looks like you'll be buying a HotSpring because we're the only ones that do."
So, he bought a 2006 Sovereign with Sterling Marble shell and Coastal Gray cabinet.
Point #1: Never say your competition is better than you.
Point #2: Exclusive features really do make a difference, sometimes. Not always, but sometimes.
Merry Christmas!

I hope you're going to give the "brand x" salesman a referrel bonus or at least send him a fruit basket for his help.
