Fair enough. I am kind of leaning that way too just so we’ve done due diligence on everything. I think we ought to test the artesian definitely but worried the tempo will be a waste of time. At least we’d know though.

You'd be shocked how often a spa that tests well dry fails in a wet test or vice versa, the spa that was just seems ok in a dry test turns out to fit just right. Dry testing is a good first step but means very little beyond the idea that is worthy of taking the next step and wet test. Having said that the Artesian may show itself to be just as good in the wet test as the dry but I wouldn't put money on it.

Hi fella,

We are also in the same position, been looking for the past several weeks and lost for choice but are swaying towards the hot springs but a little confused as to how you have managed to get these substantially below what I have been quotes, we are looking at the flair but have been quoted £10100.00, would you mind sharing who quoted you as I may pass my business their way.

Many thanks

Thank you.

I was wondering if anyone has any specific views on these models of hot tubs also? I am confident that Jacuzzi, Hot Springs and Artesian are good manufacturers but what about the models themselves - does anyone have them?

Also, any views on which one is the most economical to run?
