Jacuzzi Questions. Dealer Options costs and Clearray/Ozone

(1/2) > >>

Hello,

I'm close to pulling the trigger on a J495 but I have a few questions that could help me negotiating with the dealer.

1.   Can Ozone and Clearray co-exist?  Any advantages? (will it reduce my chemicals and the smell associated with them?)
2.   Anyone know what the dealer cost of these dealer options:

      Cover
      Cover lifter
      Ozone
      Smartseal  (does it really save 25% electricity and worth the money)
      Prolites corner cabinetry lighting

3.  Is it too much to ask for the dealer to include these in with the spa?  (not asking for stereo or steps)

 :) Thanks

Not sure about Clear ray and ozone together, but can't see why not.

I bought a Jacuzzi 230CD last year. I gave them a list and of things and the price I was prepared to pay which was £1000 under the RRP.

I asked for;
Installation, cover, cover lifter, optional ozone, steps and chemical starter pack. All were included in the price.

I don't think its unreasonable to ask for those items included in the price, but at the end of the day it depends what overall price you are paying.

1) I wouldn't get both, that would seem redundant and I certainly wouldn't pay to add the second. I'd get whats included and stick with that.
2) I have an idea on some of those costs but I wouldn't comment even if I knew them specifically. Getting an upgraded cover is always a good idea in cold weather areas IMO and a cover lifter is a must for me.
3) Spas prices are everything that comes with them are negotiable. Of course there is nothing wrong with asking them to include accessory items just as there is nothing wrong with them replying "can't do". Give it a shot, maybe they'll meet you part way.

cover, cover lift and an ozonator should all be included for a tub of that price imo...I personally wouldn't pay for a clearray upgrade as using a good corona discharge ozone works fine imo, but if you think you need it then buy it...lights are subjective so again if you think you can negotiate that into the price then buy all means give it a go.  I have no idea what "smart seal" is..personally it sounds like a typical marketing ploy to increase margins on something that should already be included with a tub of that price..again just my .02

Clear Ray is Standard equipment on 2012 Jacuzzi Hot Tubs. I like it and wish I had it on my 2010 J 465.
