Welcome to our forum.
Sorry Steve, This post was entirely about a different company than yours. Hydro Pool, really make a nice high quality spa. Are you displaying spas at the Atlantic City Pool and Spa Show, in January? If so, see you there. Dave.
Vinny,You caught the new photos on the Artesian Website before I did. The photos are updated but not the specs. The Island Line is now available with 32, 42, 52 or 62 Jets. I agree with you, I am a little skeptical about how the footjets will be in 2006 for the Garand Bahama and the Grand Cayman. They removed the foot dome on those two models and the jets are now on the footwell wall, but they are larger full size jets. For the Antiqua and Captiva, the foot jets greatly improved. I will let you know how the footjets are, as soon as they arrive and I fire the Cayman up. The shells have been retooled with real sleek lines, it is toough to see it on the web site. Artesian did switch to a larger Circ Pump in the spring of 2005, but I thought you had the older style circ pump, the grey Grundfos Pump, which consumes very little enery. 101 degrees set continuously, could add to the cost abit. Do you still use the tub daily and if so always at night or sometimes during the day. Maybe you could run less heat cycles or drop the temperature back a few degrees, when exiting the spa. Dave.
