Title: Hot Tub Tech Tells all you want to know
Post by: Tombukt2 on November 11, 2014, 08:38:06 am
Spa tech in industry 24 yrs  got into this completely by accident.. many of my customers buy their tubs used . because like other big ticket items let someone else take the loses. Like anything else if yous buy the items with crazy complicated one off parts , theyre will be issues .. Most my Customers are sports injured types they lookin for water therapy. Hi GPM flo rates are required for this. 2-2.5 in mains plumbing   Min 1 in lines to jets no less  these requirements right here above eliminate most of the junk that's out there .. in the plumbing dept . This stuffs for commercial equip.  the controls you use can make or break your experience  I personally am a Balboa M7 guy  put it in set up and leave it alone 7 plus years  keep water correct and prolly no heater in that 7 yrs to..  leaks are generally two categories' freeze breaks and joints failing  many due to drastic plumbing size changes  say going from 2 in to a 1.5 in manifold with .750 nipples   that 3 hp pump moving 200 gpm through that bottleneck is awaiting a fault(leak)  like other big ticket items  theyre made for in home service which is at a much greater cost than carry in. Doh So as a shopper its prudent to eliminate as much of the hidden issues as possible .. If yous want Led colors  and flat screens  fast n furious flash just be prepped to replace the cheapo junk as required  you do get what you paid for

The hot tubbing has been great Mike.  But, I live in the People's Republic of Maryland. :)

We haven't gotten much snow here in Mississippi, yet, but I'm sure the blizzard is just around the corner. It's sure cold enough for one right now.
