Title: Pics of new Jacuzzi  J-480
Post by: Spatini on May 16, 2008, 12:54:28 am
here are some pics of the new Jacuzzi , I have a before, a after destruction ,and an after placement, I pretty much destroyed what I had to make way for the tub to be placed, so now I need to come back and add a deck or a rock patio  or something , not sure yet for the time being I will just soak and ponder on a plan.

Congratulations and thanks for sharing!

Hey thanks everyone,
 I bought this property which is on Lake Hamilton about 20 years ago ,
 Chad , not a 911 Turbo , only a 911 Targa , ........just kiddin
 after I removed all the trees and bushes from around the existing pergola I lost all the privacy I had between me and the nieghbor, but we are good friends so it wont be to much of an issue while I try to figure out a new surrounding to incorporate a grilling area and some privacy , the area immediatly surrounding the spa is about a foot lower than the rest of the upper yard so I may build a deck around it to give it the built in look , will also make about a 2 foot removable section around the tub for access, since I do all this work myself it takes a while, drives the wife nuts but in the end she's ok with it.
 I will post more pics as we progress , any Ideas or thoughts welcome, I will soak and ponder.

Wow Spatini that is a very good looking tub and what a setting.

What lake is that?

I am jealous of you sitting out there at sundown.....Jezzzz!

Hey I dont want to be negative but does Jacuzzi have that
kind of lip around the whole edge?....

I need a place from any seat in the tub to sit my Corona!

Keep posting pics and happy tubbing....looks like you got a great one.

That looks very nice Spatini....I love Lake Hamilton.  We used to spend a lot of time out there and on Lake DeGray when I was a freshman at HSU in Arkadelphia.  I should've spent more time in class and I probally wouldn't be peddlin' spas. :-[

Enjoy your tub!

Zep,

It has 4 lighted cup holders that would work perfectly for your Corona.

In His Peace,
Fred

ZEP they are right under the hinge area of the cover. They are molded into the inside of the curved top and all four are lit from under the cup holder.

Very nice set up. :) location, location location. Can we sign up for a time share. The jacuzzi J-480 was on our short list but did not fit quite right. I would make it work if it was situated on your pad.

Congratulation and ENJOY.  8-)

I hope to have pictures of my new J-470 tonight, if anything goes wrong with the installation today then I will have to post your pictures on my bedroom window.  ;D

Looks very nice. Them 470's and 480's look so nice when you light them up. Have you tried the magic jets under the waterfalls yet?

Yes and they are very nice , another of my favorite seats, when you direct the diverter all the way to the seat to the right or left of the seat it will double the power of jets under waterfall !! you can also get the true quadraphonic aquasound sensation from here.
