Arctic - Energy Consumption

[Confused]

Well, I sent in my hubby to see if they would "mistake" CalSpa with California Spa & Fitness (Hydropools).
Much to my shagrin, she pulled out the energy study and told my husband that he didnt want to buy a tub there as they had the worst energy usage in Artic's independant study.

I definitely won't be buying an Artic from that store!

Was it the same salesperson and did you definitely set her straight before your husband went back in? IFFFFF so, shame on them and I'd let them know why you're walking.

Yep, sounds like she is knowingly misleading people.

Sadly, there are quite a few salespeople like that in this industry as I found out when I visited the State Fair of Texas last month.  I do sympathize with your plight of having to wade through all of the baloney being slung out there.  This is a great place to get factual information so use it to your advantage.

Good luck in your search!

It sounds to me it's more like she doesn't know the competition as Hydropool isn't in the study.  IF you like the brand, point out the discrepancy and see if she'll recant, or talk the manager (praying she isn't the manager of course).  Otherwise, you should find another dealer/brand with which you are comfortable.  I found incompetant salespeople in my search also.  I also found blatant liars.  Fortunately, my favorite spa didn't have either.
