Jacuzzi 2007 changes for 300 series
« on: January 09, 2007, 07:28:00 pm »
Hi all,
does anyone know of any info or where to find pictures of a new 2007 300 series (365 in particular) tub.

I'm getting my 2006 model replaced under warranty with a new 2007 model and was just wondering what the changes are for 2007.

I heard the waterfall was different - any pictures? and the controls for the air coming out the jets was being changed to a toggle switch of some sort instead of a push buton as in the 2006 models.

cheers
Rich

The only thing that changed on the waterfall is how to control the waterflow,they added lighted cup holders, s/steel escution (optional) outside lighting (optional)
they also changed how the filter area opens, and added a jet to the foot dome and also a new adjustable style for the upper jets that should make 5 different jet styles in the the spa. We have the new J-335,J-355 and a J-465 on order but have not heard when they will ship, soon I hope I am almost out of 06s.

 Stereo wise and color wise are the same as posted in the Sundance thread.  I like the new colors and changes they made the new style jets felt fantastic.

 I dont think pics are available yet. :(

 So are they getting you an 06 or 07 ?? I didnt think there were any 06s left at the factory but I havent seen an available list for awhile.   If youre getting the 07 the fault in your spa could work to your advantage.

Thaks for the update Jim,
I will be getting a 2006 so I guess the whole thing will work out rather well after all.
I heard from my dealer that the design of the waterfall was changing to not use the lever to control waterflow aswell as the water running over the top of the waterfall instead of out its side ( also colours changing).

From your description I should also get lighted cup holders (standard or optional?), an extra jet on the foot dome, style change on the jets.
cheers

 The changes are only on the 07s not the 06s,the lighted cup holders are std on the 07s and same with the jet.  The 06 you are getting will look just like the one you have.

 I was wondering about that, you did great!!  And with the price increase you did really well!!! :)  

 The only one difference is the topside will be different LED not LCD same as the
 J- 345,  but its really not that big of a deal its the spa itself that counts.

Hi Jim,
not sure what you mean by "The only one difference is the topside will be different LED not LCD same as the  J- 345".

Do you mean the control unit (showing temperature) will be LED instead of LCD? - Is this an inferior control unit?

cheers

Yes it will be LED and I wouldnt go as far to say inferior but you cant do as much with it, like tell what time it is,program filter cycles to come on when you want and how long, so on and so on.

  One nice thing about it if it ever fails after the warrantee which is 5 years, it wont cost as much to replace it.  I really dont see alot of trouble with them or any of the topsides for that matter but who can say after 5 years.

 When you think about it the only btns you really use are temp up/temp down, pumps on/pumps off, lights on/lights off.

 Oh and wax on wax off.  :)
