Help identify a Hot Springs hot tub
« on: May 14, 2019, 02:45:24 pm »
Hello all! I have just joined this forum in the hopes I can get help in identifying the pictured model and ask for some help.
I was recently offered with this tub it's overall clean but I don't know much about these hot tubs. I do know that there is a noisy pump that needs to be replaced and there is a leak from potentially one of the jets or plumbing pipes. It is very tempting to get this tub as I know it is a good quality brand but I wanted to check and see if anyone knew how old it is? and how difficult/expensive it is to get replacement parts for it? And if anyone can give any sort of feedback on how much life is left on it I would truly appreciate it. I am very handy when it comes to plumbing and electrical but I never personally dealt with a hot tub.
Thank you for any insight and feedback!

It looks like a Grandee. I am currently looking at Hot Springs and have the brochure in front of me. Pretty sure that's what it is.

Thank you for that information! Is there a way to tell how old it is and how much of a life expectancy can be expected from this tub?

Look for an alpha-numeric serial number around the equipment compartment and post it here where someone can decipher it for you.
220, 221, whatever it takes!

Yup, it’s a Grandee.  Post the serial number.  It will start with GG.  Based on looks, guessing it’s a 2007 or 2008.

There's a sticker in the photo which has the serial number. I can't read it = even zoomed in = but if you post it, maybe you can read it on your og photo, we can help.

Yes, it is a Grandee. I have a Vista just like it sitting in my front driveway right now - it came out of a deck with a minor leak. Leak fixed, people bought another tub and I am now the owner!!
