May I just interpolate (heck, others are using a thesaurus…why not me? ;D ) with the function of a sump pump...

Granted there's no heater to be concerned with but if the question is, do these 56 frame pool pumps in our spas have an issue with particles small enough to go through a skimmer basket, then I will side with the NO's.

No feelings here...that were hurt anyway... ;)

Did that not make sense term? I thought that the fact my sump pump has lasted years without any prefilter (not even a skimmer basket) that it was a good anaolgy with regards to your question...

No harm, no foul buddy! ;) It's all good.

It cracks me up how defensive everyone gets about their spas and they all sell against HotSpring. ;D  It is like going up against the World Champs, day in and day out, year after year after year......

Again, for the record, I'm GLAD everyone does what they do.  I'm GLAD you sell what you believe in and stick with it, for the most part.  I'm dang sure glad we do what we do and so are our customers.  Are our spas perfect, nope, but they ain't too shabby.

16,000 Envoys sold last year.  Any other COMPANY sell that many spas?

I'd love to hear some figures.

Doesn't Chrysler sell a shi*load of cars? I'll let you ponder that one too. ;)

BIG = BEST? I'm not sure what your point was with that? ??? I'm gonna go ask JA for his opinion...  ;D

I am not going to comment on the No By Pass....but regarding Term and Steve...who both I respect and admire....I will say that there is much to many brands that we all could mention certain things about but I think we as always wanting to be courteous and respectful of each other choose not to....For all the bickering that as gone on here of late....I would hope that people will actually see that very very few spas ever get slammed as it has been mentioned but the Marketing of basically 2 company's does get hammered from time to time....but it is the marketing and the sales tactics that are held in such low regard not the products....

Got her broke in finally.  I just had a lady call me that has an '86 HS that won't run.  She just drained it and refilled.  Told her she had an air lock and sure enough, we fixed it over the phone.  She's happy and I'm happy cause I can keep sitting here in my drawers with you fine folks.

Maybe I should have.  Ol' Meanness just called and told me we're going to have another mouth to feed.  Guess I gotta sell the one we already got.

Well, I put out since we were out of the country and I didn't think anyone would find out.  Danged if I didn't put out a little too much.  Wished I'd a had some no by-pass going on. :-[

Well, it was Valentine's, so that was her time of the year anyway, regardless.

Thank you for your condolences.

Wow. Congratulations.

How old is the one for sale? Housebroke? Can they sell tubs and Patio Furniture by any chance? You care how close their new home is? Will you take a check? How much is shipping?

(Man, you sure have to ask a lot of questions when you buy over the 'Net).
