Air Blower Confusion

dazedandconfused, :-[
Sundance was the first company to offer a built-in aromatherapy system in 1992. By 1999, when they designed and offered their latest hot tub for sale, they elected to not include the air blower (aromatherapy) system.
Interesting, huh!
This was a gimmick that didn't pan out.

Air blowers serve one purpose in my opinion................to make spas look cool in the showroom ;D!!!!!!!!!! I gotta be honest.........caldera has air blowers on their Utopia series spas, and I have yet to see where they would ever offer any type of hydrotherapy. watkins sales reps claim they are for "soft tissue therapy" (guess they stole that from the marketing geniuses at thermospas) which i honestly don't see. The air blower is nosiy and sounds like a friggin vaccum cleaner!!!!!!!!! ;D Seriosly though, i gotta say the utopia geneva "Looks Impressive" with all the jets gong and the air blower on..............water raging everywhere 8) Point being.........I don't know what and have yet to find the reasoning behind having an air blower, other then to make the spas look tim taylorish at shows and fairs to get the impulse buyers. I like caldera spas, I sell them, but let's be honest the air blower does nothing and is noisy to boot............like a mother in law ;) ;D.........oh boy I'm gonna get heat for that, thank god I'm still single ;D Anyways if the spa you like has an air blower, don't let that be the deciding factor and force you to go with your second choice. You can simply choose not to use it in the end. case in point, My buddy's parents own an Optima, it has an air blower.......they simply don't use it, and BTW that's an awesome tub with GREAT jet action.

how would you compare the optima to the caldera tahitian utopia? i have wet tested both and like both...the geneva was nice but i felt the lounger in the geneva was a bit small for the wife at 5 foot 1....

Poops,
I'm not sure you'll find a lounger anywhere that will work well for someone who is 5'1". Even in some of the other seats she may need a seat cushion.
