No I'm not touchy. I'm actually using this debate to help get my game on for my upcoming weekend Home Show. This is great practice! ;D ;D ;D

Of course, as I have postulated before, since there are more HotSpring tubs out there than most other brands combined, it sort of make HS the 'standard.'
 
Also - did you fine folks know that HotSpring is the FIRST tub to be certified by the NSF? No, I'm not talking about the fact that Sundance claims to have the only NSF filter certified by the NSF - they don't, BTW HotSpring already has NSF certified filters - but HotSpring is the ONLY tub currently certified by the NSF for OVERALL spa safety and performance for the ENTIRE SPA.
 
Ha.

So you believe this too?  Did you have these certifications before the heater fires?  This is begining to show a passionate belief, are you trying to say there are no other leaders in this industry that have not contributed to the evolution and development of the products we use not to mention the acrylic shells that you sell today?  Sundance, D1, Marquis, combined production does not exceed HS?  This is not about number competition, this is about the "kool-aide" theory, imagination and what you have been taught to believe.

What happend to your "standard" with co-extruded ABS as you now have adapted so well to acrylic that HS sold against for 20 years.  

When will HS dealers take those blinders off and admit there are other very good alternate choices for the consumer, D1 for instance which originated from one of HS largets dealers in the '70's.  They make a nice Hot Tub don't they?

shabba34:
Everybody drinks their own respective Kool-Aid if you ask me.  Isn't that the reason why you're all so passionate about the products that you sell?  It just so happens that the shear #'s of HS owners and dealers cause animosity in the industry.  And yes, JMcd I think D1 makes a fine product.

East_TX_Spa:
JMcD, you go right ahead an keep taking your cutesy little digs at me.  I imagine everyone on here sees through them the same way I do.  I don't mind at all.  I'm surprised that there aren't more people on here that like to direct snide little remarks towards me as I often leave the door wide open for folks to do so. ;D

BUT, you continue to obfuscate and skirt the issue by continually rehashing over and over and over ad nauseum about water care being the same.  Fine, we get it already, no argument here, done deal, no worries.

My only stance on this issue is plainly stated and I even drew a picture specifically for you.  I don't know what brand you sell, couldn't care less.  But, if you'd be so kind to answer this question in a succinct fashion, I would be grateful and be able to go to my reward with a joyful heart:

Is it better to filter all the water before it enters the pump, heater, and plumbing?  Yes or No

And if by some miracle of the Almighty you actually answer "No", then why on earth not? ;D

East_TX_Spa:
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.
