Title: 2006 Jetsetter
Post by: Anoroc on April 21, 2006, 12:59:25 pm
Has anyone on this forum tried the new 2006 Jetsetter.

Dealer does not have this available for wet testing at this time.

I am curious to know if the dual moto massage and the seat with the two rotary jets are running at full throttle when the diverter valve is changed.

also, does it seem that the lounger is at a deeper angle than before?  Just by looking at it it seems like the inside is a little deeper.

The Dual Moto and neck jets as well as the large jetstream jet at the feet work at full force with the 4 smaller directional jets at the back right.  When diverter is in the opposite position, the dual moto jet with no neck or feet, work at full force with the rotary and directional cluster in right hand front.  If diverter positioned in middle, everything works at a toned down strength.  The 06' Jetsetter is a powerful little spa with a lot more room then last year. ;)

This is a better diverter configuration now because you have one person using the moto and the other the rotary jets at full power.

sounds good.

I really like the little critter.  It has proven to be very popular thus far.

Wow, what a hot little spa. If it was just me and my wife I would definitely consider this one. I like the Jetstream jet for the feet at the lounger. My Envoy has two little Hydrostream jets that are pretty weak. I would really like to have two Jetstreams but I know there are pressure limitations.

I have a question on the pump for this spa.  It still has one pump that runs at 1.65 continuous Horse Power but now includes a dual moto and different jet configuration.

Did getting rid of the soothing sevens free up enough power to make the dual moto and rotary jets effective?

Anoroc,
The 06' is more powerful then the 05' even though it does have the same pump package.  It does have to do with removing the soothing sevens and also the new design of the rotary and directional jets seem to produce a little more force.

"the new design of the rotary and directional jets seem to produce a little more force"

How are the rotary and directional jets designed differently?

They screw in and out instead of snapping in and out, and the mold of the jet is slightly different.  One piece instead of two or three.

Thanks for the info.  FYI- my 2005 Jetsetter has rotary jets that screw off not snap off.  I wonder if the jet changes you are thinking about apply to a different spa.  Or I just may be confused ???

Your jets snap together with four prongs to the threaded insert.  Once the insert is screwed into the back of the jet housing, the jet part itself snaps off leaving the threaded part behind so you can interchange the rotary and directional jets.  There are no longer any prongs.  The jets are molded differently for ease and longevity.  I'll try to find a pic.

Ok, I see what you mean.  I remember when I purchased a rotary jet I had to assemble it by snapping it an a threaded insert.  I didn't realize that you swap out jets by snapping them out.  I thought you would unthread them each time you wanted to change them.


Do you think the way they repositioned the filter compartement also adds more room on the inside of the spa.

The spa is 3 inches wider and 2 inches longer.  Thats where most of the extra space comes in.  It has a nice cool down bench as well.  05', the cool down bench was very narrow.

I may have to wet test this new and improved model.

Jetsetter rocks compared to J 315.  I have wet tested and sold both.

Do you also think the 2006 is a bit more powerful?

I have one wet in my showroom, and I believe it is more powerful than the 05'.  Especially the rotary jets. ;)
