Welcome to our forum.
Me not being a proffesional spa tech, or not even a crappy spa tech, how does the average person tell if a spa is of execellant, mediam, or poor quality.
Also dealer service, as important as it is, has nothing to do with the quality of the spa .
This is exactly what I mean. You guys are still beaten around the bush. Spatech, quoted me a couple times for what? It surly didn't answer any questions I and other members have. MY QUESTION STILL STANDS UNANSWERED WHAT MAKES A SPA EXCELLENT, FAIR OR POOR in the eyes of the professionals here? As far a the crappy adjective not all spa tech's are created equal, as some in the business are idiots. I am one of the idiots because I know nothing about spas
A quality spa is one which is well designed and therefore lasts in the field for years with few issues (and they are simple understandable issues when they do arise).So by your definition of a quality spa, I won't know if I bought a quality spa until I've owned it for ten to fifteen years. That really helps me out now when I'm looking for a spa. What is a simple understandable issue? I've never owned a spa or tried to trouble shoot one, but I really can't imagine with a spa consisting of water pumps, control unit, ozanator, lights and plastic pipe can't hardly see anything not being understandable. Just a process of elimination and money to buy new parts unless the shell completely falls apart. I may be an idiot when it comes to spas just because I've never been around one, but this in no way means I'm an idiot as you have implied. NJDAVE said Thermo is not a D-One, Artesian, Hot springs, Sundance or Marquis. It is an average quality spa. I guess what I would like, being new to the spa industry is when someone like NJDAVE, you or any other knowledgable person here makes a statement like this, it would help us newbie's for the pros to explain why they think this way. I sat through a TS home sales pitch and got offered the same deal as many others have. Did I by one no, and I am no way endorsing TS or cutting them down.
