Hi all,

I have a couple questions for the Hot Springs experts out there.  I am about 99% sure I will be pulling the trigger on my first tub, the Limelight Pulse.  One quick question, and excuse me if it is a stupid question: does the Pulse have a cool down seat?  I have seen one in person, but it was several months back and quite honestly, I cannot remember.  Another question I have pertains to the Everwood steps that I would get.  Does anyone know the dimensions of these steps?  I am trying to evision my setup, and want to have a very specific idea as far as how much room I will need on my cement pad.  Any general comments about the Pulse would be welcome, too!!

Thanks guys!

The Pulse does in fact have a cool down seat....dimensions as I just measured on the Everwood steps are 32" long x 22" deep x 15 1/4" tall

Not taking anything away from the Hot Springs dealer you choose to go with, but as far as the steps are concerned, if you have any hint of carpenter skills, make your own! Go to Lowes, Home Depot, etc., and get some of the prefabbed "step" wood, and some treated 2x4s. Make your own and you'll save a few hundred dollars. I saw some of the Everwood steps on line for about 400.00. I made mine for under 65.00. Mine are pressure treaded, heavy duty and will last, most likely, much longer than the "plastic" ones you purchase. I also stained mine a nice coffee color to compliment my spa. 

I still love my Hot Spring Envoy spa!

A set of Everwood's can be had for $288 online from a couple different sources, but you are correct if you possess carpentry skills you can surely build your own for less and stain them to match your spa cabinet

Thanks for the info, guys!  I have a couple more questions, and your input is hugely appreciated.  Once again, please excuse my ignorance.  I am brand new to all this, and really want to make sure my setup is good, and I am doing this right.  Regarding the Pulse, can anyone tell me where the cool down seat is in relation to the control panel?  Is it on the same side?  Is the side the control panel on considered the front of the tub?  Lastly, does it matter which way the cover opens?  In other words, can you choose which side the cover would be on when it is off and the tub is being used?  Assume I will have one of the cover lifters.

Thanks!!!!
