I've been having trouble with my 10' jarrah hot tub rolling around in the high winds. If you send me a free one I promise to take LOTS of great photos and email them your way!

Oh, and I'll be needing a new cover on that as well, could you call Robert for me?

For you my friend, no problem, but I'll have to pre-collect the freight from ya. Jarrah as you know is quite heavy. Please send a check for shipping in the amount of $9000.00. Upon receipt I'll mail out your tub........... and I'll even throw in a cover...... only one?

[Chas]

Hmm.

How about I come pick it up? I owe you dinner as I recall.

OR

Do you offer anything in Balsa?

Dr. Spa has some cover straps that might help.  Give him a holler and ask for the forum discount.

I find out there's a discount after I placed 2 orders...

I also have recvd the Hurricane Strap from Doc....  And I know I still owe him Pics....

But I have not installed it yet.... just have not had the time between the lousy weather.

But I will keep my promise... as soon as it's installed,  I'll be posting the pics and sending them to Doc as well.

Glad I got mine installed, and in the nick of time too.

I went away this weekend for a ski trip and had my brother watch the house.

He used the hot tub.

He broke the backside clips. If  I didn't have the hurracane strap, my cover would be  gone now.  


Amazing.....he used the tub  just once, my perfect water is completely out of whack....foam...cloudiness...ugh.  I so wanted a nice hot soak last night after comming home from  3 days of skiing.  


Off to scoop out foam and nuke the tub.

Drewster's hurricane strap in the above pictures may be what I need.  I have a cover lifter similar to Drewster's and I am looking for a way to just unbuckle the front cover without going to the back side to unbuckle the cover buckles.  Here's my questions about this hurricane strap in the pictures:
1.  Where can I buy it?  I saw "wind resistance straps" on rhtubs.com, but they were brown (I want black like Drewsters) and it looked like it was 2 straps (not 1).
2.  What keeps the front buckle from sliding through the cover handle and to the back of the cover when opening it?
3. Is it OK to just use this one big strap and quit using my current set up of 4 buckles (I don't want to go to the back side to unbuckle).
4.  Looks like I can no longer get a free strap, but how do I get a discount (sounds like this would be a good source for chemicals etc)?

Spa,

When i open the cover I loop the strap through the cover's handle so it doesn't sllip away.

I am told that RHTubs gives a discount to forum members, jsut let them know who you are also, you may want to  contact Dr Spa (PM him) and see what he can do. (Although I haven't seen him around lately.)


I love my strap. I no longer have to go to the back of the tub.  (which is great at night when I just want to get back into the house!)

I haven't gotten around to updating the site with the new hurrican strap pictures and description..... I'll try to get to it today.

2.  What keeps the front buckle from sliding through the cover handle and to the back of the cover when opening it?

Nothing really, just gravity and friction

3. Is it OK to just use this one big strap and quit using my current set up of 4 buckles (I don't want to go to the back side to unbuckle).

It should be fine.

4.  Looks like I can no longer get a free strap, but how do I get a discount (sounds like this would be a good source for chemicals etc)?

I think ole drew is joking or pulling peoples leg....... or hittin the bottle earlier than I  ........... sorry, there isn't a "forum discount".....

Huh? I've been telling eveyone "don't forget to ask for the forum discount!"

I am a tard.

Dr. Spa,

How do I order one that looks like the photo?  The customer service person that answered the phone said the hurricane strap is only 10' long.  I would like one like in the photo that shows it going across the cover, down one side to the ground, and down the other side 1-2 feet.  It seems like the strap would need to be at least 12-14 feet long.
