Well with that thinking what would you tell him if he was from Broomfield Colorado? I'd tell him Wind River Spas

It's gonna need a 20 amp line. You'll be fine as long as it's got the GFCI. And make sure the GFCI on the cord still works, mine was busted when I bought it and it needed to be replaced.

I had mine done mine before it was delivered, but after we bought it. I knew where we were putting it, and I knew what it required. Hundreds of dollars later, it was done with 6 gauge AWG, 50 amp Siemens breakers, and a Siemens box. Typically, it's recommended that you keep the same brand as your main box, for insurance purposes.

That's a Waterway Diverter. Maybe it's here? http://www.inyopools.com/parts_waterway_top_mount_spa_diverter_valves.aspx

For now, I think we'll just stick with the Whirlpools, it'd be a shame to get rid of brand new appliances, they still have the stickers on them. They're nice enough. The Sub-Zero was left in our house in MI. Hope the new owners enjoy it. Redid the kitchen, and then moved 6 months later. Our current house has all Maytag. My only complaint has been the temp accuracy in the ovens, and the fridge has been a pain in the a**. At least the new house is already wired for a hot tub, with stamped concrete patios for the tub. By any chance to you service central Vacuums? Our new house has a Beam central vac, but we have to order the tools, as the previous owner took them. And on to Master Spas, I think they just have a bad rep from poor dealer support. My tub is built with some of the same things, Waterway jets/pumps, balboa controls, and similar designs. In the end, it's your spa, pick what you want. As long as you have a good dealer, you'll be set. Even if your dealer/Master goes under, Waterway jets are used on a lot of spas, and parts will always be readily available. Same with Balboa and AO Smith motors.

Appliance repair you say? Mind answering some questions? How does Whirpool stand in the line up? Our new house, which we close in about two weeks, has all brand new Whirlpool appliances, minus the trash compacter which is a Profile, and we went out and bought a brand new Whirlpool Gold French Door fridge. We used to have Whirlpools many years ago before our Sub Zero and KitchenAide kitchen remodel, and found them to be decent, is that still true?

You got me on that spelling mistake, but there were many I could've gotten you on. I switch back and forth between Eukanuba and Science d i e t. I'll feed my very expensive show quality golden (I'll just say I spent more on him than I did on my tub) on what his breeder and my vet recommend. His parents are both champions, and he has the most beautiful fur of any golden I've ever seen. Mine is about a year and a half at this point, and trained like no other.

ROFL! Well said! NOT to mention the brain damage caused by alcohol (which studies have shown women are more prone to than men). The lead paint on the kid's toys and the melamine in the pet food and the undersized wire in the extension cords from China are not a problem either, I guess. :rolleyes: There's a reason I pay ridiculous amounts of money for Eukabana dog food for my show quality golden, and there are reasons why my vet recommends it. People give you advice for a reason, they've dealt with the same things. I'd like to think of Waterbear and others on here as my hot tub veterinarian, although some of the stuff they recommend is expensive (test kits anyways haha), there's a reason why it's recommended.

The heater in a 2006 vista should be 4000 watts according to watkins

Anyways, long story short. Use chlorine or bromine. It'll be easiest to take care of, and you'll know your tub is safe. The amount of chlorine in the tub while you're in there isn't enough to hurt you.

Although I think that they should have air driers with them, I do live in Colorado, where these tubs are made, and our humidity is extremely low. I typically almost never notice the tub smelling like ozone, which I could immediately smell with my old tub.

I should also note that the one on mine is glued and clamped, not just sitting without being held on. Not sure why the tub they used in the video isn't.

My sister has a hot tub, not a pool. Same with me. Although ozone is your choice, I'm just saying that I benefit from it. My tub is constructed very differently than the average one. I have numerous ozone mixing chambers and the ozone/heated water pipe goes all the way around the tub. Skip to about 7:20 to see what I'm talking about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TR714HQPrAc&feature=related

I didn't take it the wrong way. Just most health professionals I know are using bromine or chlorine for a reason. My cousin is also an ER doctor, with a 2001? Landmark, he uses chlorine shock every time after getting out of the tub. Chlorine baths (about 50 ppm with NO CYA) are often prescribed for eczema, including peidatric cases. http://www.mayoclini...ch-bath/AN02003 http://www.acutekids...nts/BleachBaths http://pediatrics.ab...bleach_bath.htm http://bleachbath.com/ That's very interesting, I did not know that. Let's not forget why we use chlorine/bromine, it ACTUALLY kills bacteria and harmful stuff in the tub. I have no problem with my Ozone system, it doesn't bother me at all, and I noticed a significant drop in chlorine use over my last tub. But for me, it makes sense, I use it daily, any typically open up the tub 5 or 10 minutes before I get in. All I ask of this nurse is that when she has guests over, she lets them know all she does is use vinegar, not a real sanitizer in her tub.

My sister, an pediatric RN, who is now promoted to a manager, at The Children's Hospital, has a tub with Ozone. She uses Chlorine, just as she should. She has severe eczema (like most of us in my family) and has no problem with it, as long as the water is balanced. Not all nurses are crazy. She cleans her house with bleach, and the typical Murphy's oil or Bona on her hardwoods. She is always vaccinated, and makes sure that her kids are vaccinated.
