Thanks.
Yesterday i did wet test for Caldera and HS Jetsetter. My dealer didn't have vanguard ready for test.
Does Vanguard has the same kind of pressure like Jetsetter , because i feel it was not that much high.

Thanks

The ratio of Jets to Pump Size will be about the same so you can expect very similar pressure.  The Highlife collection from Hot Springs are high quality tubs but they are definitely not going to win any jet pressure competitions so if that is what you desire you may have to explore some other models.

Not at all! Did you soak the original Jetsetter VS the Jetsetter NXT? The Vanguard has another jet pump included, so you will get more power on the tub. The original Jetsetter has one single pump (it's a 110/20amp) so the pump is just a single speed. The Vanguard has 2 pumps, both of which are larger as a single pump then the Jetsetter itself.

I think the idea was a bit more about getting the feel of the jets- The Moto, the Rotary jets, etc etc. Probably not about the pressure itself.

I tested on Jetsetter NXT.
So what do you think on Vanguard NXT?

d00nut:
Opinions on jet pressure are going to be very subjective.  It's been awhile since I sat in a Jetsetter NXT, but I can tell you the feeling is going to be pretty similar between different Highlife models.  If you crank the moto all the way on the Jetsetter NXT, it's going to feel that way on a Vanguard NXT.

The difference is going to be the larger variety of jets on the Vanguard NXT vs the smaller Jetsetter.  There are also hip jets around the moto on the Vanguard, which increase the 'sense' of pressure.

Personally, I find the pressure to almost be to much on the Vanguard, that I turn off the air around the moto jets (for neck and hip.)  That is personal preference though.
