    What are the things to look for when buying a spa/hot tub?
    I have asked this question twice without getting a good answer so far-I am considering buying a spa/hot tub. I do not want to spend too much money to buy one.
    There are so many different styles of spa/hot tubs. What are things that I am looking for in a quality spa/hot tub? I am concern about spending a lot of money for one that may lead to major repairs in near future.
    Also-can someone explain to me what to look for in spa/hot tub to avoid dry rot and not to have the pumps & motor go bad.
    How much horsepower is good to have to be considered a good buy?
    Any advise would be greatly appreciated….

    Does anyone have an owners manual for a Galbocca 2-person Hot Spa?
    Model # HS3P TEAL We acquired this used hot spa and the previous owners did not have manual. If anyone has one, please let me know. Thank you so much.

    it would be best to send it down the drain. a floor drain would work better than the tub, because they generally have 3 or 4 inch drain pipes rather than 1.5 or 2 inch from a tub. and no, the chemicals in a spa or hot tub are not near corrosive enough to hurt modern plumbing. toilet bowl cleaner and clog remover are substantially more corrosive. I would not recommend draining it in the grass unless you have a french drain in your yard, otherwise you are headed strait for a swamp in your yard. the water will take a long time to seep into the yard unless you are situated on a hill that will help to spread the surface area with out making a pond. if you do have a french drain, then it will most likely end up in the same place as if you were to discharge it on the road. roads are built to avoid pooling so if there is a curb, the water will just travel down hill until it reaches a storm sewer.

    If you will go on line with this info you should be able to find it and have the company mail it to you.

    What are the reasons and dangers that you should NOT go into a hot tub/spa?
    I sat in a spa (hot tub) the other night (the spa temperature was104 degrees). I am 36 weeks=9 months.

    Tell me what brand the spa is. I can tell you almost everything.

    Where do I drain my spa/hot tub water to?
    I need to drain my spa/hot tub for the first time ever, but I don’t know where the drained water needs to go. The street seems best, but I can’t see a sewer gutter grate anywhere (I’m sure it exists but not sure how far from our house). Grass is a no-no. Not sure about just using the bathtub (would it hurt the plumbing, all those chemicals?). Any ideas? Looking for responses from people who have done it before, not guesses please. I already called the store where I bought the tub and they said grass would be just fine, so that’s apparently not a good source of info. =

    Any experience with hot tub or spa maintenance?
    I wasn’t too sure where to post this, but – A family member has offered to give us an 8′X8′ spa with “duraban”, which needs a minor electrical repair. Are these tedious to maintain, is keeping the chemicals in tune a headache? Are there certain things I should look for that would be a sign of costs to come? Any experiences with spa/hot tub ownership would be appreciated…
    I am not sure of the make and model, but I’ll know by the end of the weekend.

    Okay, here we go. Go to a spa dealer or manufacturer and ask to sit in an EMPTY tub. One size does NOT fit all. If you are 5 ft. 6 you need a different tub than if you are 6 ft. 5. Try a number of them until you find one that feels right. You will be more buoyant when it’s full of water, but you don’t want to have to hold on to keep from floating away. Next, discuss with the dealer exactly which parts you want massaged most. Upper back, lower back, neck, shoulders, calves, feet, etc. There are a gazillion different types of jets (and jet clusters) each of which is designed to massage certain areas. (Remember, a spa is MORE than a soak in hot water. If that’s what you want just fill the bath tub and soak away!) A spa is more like a marriage counselor with bubbles.
    Next, try to avoid the temptation to over buy. Seems everybody wants a huge spa. Truth is, you will generally be in it either alone or with one other person. Why pay for way more spa than you actually need? My first one was a big one. Several spas later I have a tiny one that seats 4 people tops. Usually I am in it alone, or with my bride. Now about horsepower. The dealer can direct you best. Depends on the type and number of jets used. Soaking in a spa should be relaxing. You shouldn’t get bruised from sitting in front of a too powerful jet. Flow rates are very important when properly sizing a spa pump (or pumps.)A good dealer will know best. If he doesn’t, then walk away and find one that does. All of them are going to tell you their brand is best. Few will actually try to “customize” a tub just for you. That’s the one you want to use. Different sizes, seating arrangements, jets, and then colors. Then the equipment. All of these factors make a spa a pleasure, or a disappointment.
    Hope this helps.
