By-pass Filtration
rick:
So that's where my rebellion got its roots. To have to listen to this schpleil by others day in and day out has turned me into a bit of a crusader for TP spas.
I mean come on, assuming that a good TP spa does indeed NOT have all of these problems, and in fact is just as energy efficient as the best FF spas, why wouldn't everyone go to this type of design? I mean really, many FF'ers have made a big point of stating, "it's cheaper to make a TP spa than a FF spa".
If that is so, (and I haven't seen documented proof of that yet, just like all the other bad claims on TP), again, why not manufacture your spa in this fashion?
All I can speak for is my Coleman. 2 years old now and still no leaking, no frame bending, no pumps burned out from overheating, etc. I also don't have a circulation pump that appearantly is a must have to get clean water. Bullcrap! My water is clear and the filtration is excellent. Coleman was the only one at the time that had a skinny filter pad that sat on top of the skimmer to collect the first line of debris that usually gets to everybody else's main filters. I assume more companies have adopted this technique as to me, it only makes sense to trap the crap before it even gets to the filter.
Did I mention also that Coleman was by far the quietest spa of all the ones I shopped?
Over time, more thanks to people like Spahappy than me, Coleman has become a "more" accepted name here as the TP/FF war has become old.
But then you get a guy like hymbow, who has to stir the pot with his statement that prompted me to suggest placing circ pumps in dark places, and the whole shooting war got started again.
I'm sorry if I have offended alot of you, and sorry for trading insults with Hymbow, TUO, pkud and Drewstar. I apologize. I regret many of my posts made in haste. I just want to enjoy my spa like all of you, and hope that people would just come around about other design types and spas. I just picture new shoppers who come here for advice and when Coleman, Master, or other TP's get shot down in flames because it's a TP spa, it peeves me to no end.
So anyways, sorry for being an ass. I know what I like and you all know what you like. Peace.

its a wonder drug aint it?? ;D ok, bad joke. good to hear your tub has lived up to your expectaions. i am not trying to slam or degrade it. i would say the same thing to ANY tub owner.
like others have said, the BEST tub is the 1 that fits you and your needs. you have that. from what little i know about coleman spas, they seem to make a good product. i have seen a few posts from people saying how much they enjoy their coleman.
the FF/PT thing......everything has its +/-'s.
i can understand getting heated when you feel you are being bashed. lets just chalk it up to a misunderstanding and call it done with.
cool???

I'm sorry if I sounded cocky. Lord knows I can't stand to listen to some goober who's all hat and no cattle. I apologize for sounding cocky when I was simply confident, but I can understand why some folks would take it that way. :)
It's all fun and games and I appreciate you not wanting to get me with the circ pump! ;D

I have, on occasion, taken exception to posts here, but that has only happened when people prove they are acting like the south end of a north bound horse.
So, rick & pkud, you might want to check your direction. ;D
