Very First Post

Doc, how did you track the first post? I must have done it the hard way....I found some early posts of mine....some were a little embarassing.

When the store I was at changed from Beachcomber to Dimension1 I bought everything the reps told me, hook line and sinker (not that it was all false, just some of the "exclusive" or "only" statements).

When I got challenged on some of it here it really openned my eyes and fed my desire to research and understand more than what my sales reps were telling me.

Only takes about 10 seconds to look up... You want me to reveal some of my secrets? You must be kidding!

Well. all right. Click on a posters name. Scroll down and where is says "Show the last  10 posts of this person", change the "10" to all

Cool. Thanks Doc.

My first post:
It is quite amusing seeing these comments on the recall(s). Maax never did "manufacture" a heater. If there is ever a recall from a component manufacturer, it likely affects multiple manufacturers. I can name a dozen manufacturers that use WaterWay power storm jets. Since there introduction to the market in 2000-2001 there have been five revisions. For me to say the Beachcomber or Arctic or Hydro-Pool had a jet recall would be asinine. Sounds like a jealous competitor bashing!

My first post wasnt that long ago.  We had a calspa and then gave it back.  I have learned alot on this site.  I did everything wrong the first time I bought.  I feel fortunate now, that the dealer was a complete crook and I got a second chance at buying my second spa the right way.  Thanks everyone.

(here's my post)

Ok, I will admit im a spa newbie so these questions im sure will appear basic.  We have had our spa now for almost 2 weeks.  The first couple of days were great and then our teenager with a couple of friends got in, Im sure they didnt rinse and one had on jean shorts with a t-shirt.  
I have read enough to know that this could possibly be the reason we have foam and bubbles.  I can deal with that.  I'll drain the spa and refill it this weekend.  No big deal.  Is this the proper thing to do?  

Second, when I have it drained Im going to wash it down.  What product do any of you recommend.  A spa dealer in town said to just use Windex mixed with water...spray and wipe.  I have never heard of this.  Any input?
BTW we use it every night.  We love it!!

Wow! That was many, many posts ago....

Actually my first post on the forum was not by me but quoted off of spasearch by someone else. It turned into a debate between Chas and myself with someone named Gerry jumping in like a yapping dog.

zz emailed me, introduced himself and invited me to the forum low and behold look what has become of all that.

ZZ, I owe you many sleepless nights!! BTW, where is he?

Here is the debate....

Now that the Members thing is working again, I just looked up my first post.  It was about why Sundance doesn't chose to put Ozone in their spas as standard equipment.

Wow Doc!  Thanks for the pointer, I didn't realize it was that easy!  I was thinking I would have to go back to 2003 & just dig around!
