No Grandee a few years back... No, just like talking pics..

Pics from first party after remodel

Havent been on in some time... Just gutted my penthouse inside and out. The deck is 97% done. Here are some pics. Hope all is well here! All of the LED lights are in now LED pinholes in trellis New tree boxes built, planted and lit All drip irrigation just finished last week. Now I have to let it dry for another month before I stain it.

The OEM seems pricey....anyone buy from the online places? Any success? Thanks!

Photobucket is a free picture sharing service... Its actually pretty awesome. www.photobucket.com

No problem..good luck!

How about neon led rope? Check outneon rope Wiedmark has tons of lED's...

I love the spa...however it does have it share of issues. The board friend once..and now the tubside controls are not working. I did a ton of research though when buying the tub. Everything else I saw around the 10k range was not very impressive.

As I mentioned in a previous post DO NOT BUY THE LED LIGHT KIT that comes as an option with the Hot Springs spa. I spent the money on the light kit and about $300 on a electrician. After a few days it fried the board on the hot tub, then the lights died (one after another) within a few weeks all were burnt out. I did a ton of research and found these fantastic led lights in white and blue. They are made by Phillips and they put out a super bright light withgreat color. I have the white ones around the steps and the perimeter of the deck and the blue ones around the tub. I have gotten so many complements on the lights and even the contractor is using them in his own house now. They are very inexpensive as well $99 for ten lights. They come with a remote but I hardwired all of them to a regular switch. You can buy them here - http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Aurelle-1464...t/dp/B000FFB3AG Tyler - for a living I work in the online marketing space.

Hey anytime you are in Chicago, stop on by... always an extra girl or 5 for you!

More pics of the crane and such http://www.poolspaforum.com/forum/index.ph...ic=1083&hl= The whole thing including the top was about 30k ish... Crazy... I know. It went waaaaaaaaaay over budget. Tub + Permits + Crane + Structural engineer + Structure improvements + Electrical ( nightmere) plus incendental = A $$ Loss. I guess it was worth it... I have some more pics I will upload. I found great led lighting for the surround. Stay away from that garbage that they sell with HS tubs. Broke in 2 days! Yes, I am actually On the Ike just a few blocks west of halsted

Hello, I was wodnering if anyone used any sort of spa dome for the winter. My tub is 10 stories up in Chicago where it can get quite windy. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to cut down the wind, seemed like one of these domes would be a good winter solution. Thanks! Ray

Look at the HS grandee... My short friends sink in it..it's great . I am 6'4 and my frind who is 6'9 fits perfect

Plastic..finding real ones are very hard!

Sure anytime! For some strange reason all of my married friends are not allowed to hang out with me without supervision! I have no idea why....

If you look reeeaaly closely you can see the lights... Damn girls are picture hogs!

Here are some pictures of the tub that was installed by the crane. I have built a new surround, equipped with recessed blue led lights. Cheap and the look awesome! Philips Aurelle. I will be staining it in the spring. Sorry about the girls, they were the go-go dancers at my summer party. Enjoy

I bought it bolingbrook... Is that the store you are at? Here are some pictures of the tub installed from my summer party. I have built a new surround, equipped with recessed blue led lights. I will be staining it in the spring. Sorry about the girls, they were the go-go dancers.

Yup, bad board, they came and swaped it out today... supposedly HS never have board issues out of the factory... Warming as we speak!

Yup! 2 structural engineers signed off on it. ther was a tub before, I had to reinforce it. It sits on giant stell Ibeams that are conntected to the pillars of the roof. It was used as a factory 100years ago so the SE told me that 6k lbs is like a feather to it.

I agree...it's great to see spas in different parts of the country.

I am not getting any lights... and I ean all new wiring. The thing ..so the white wire.... manual says both 20 amp and the other says 30 amp and the on the phone they say 20amp. So the power from the main should never touch the nurtral bar? Its a new grandee. Ray

So I just had to rerun power from the box to the hot tub - 3 electricians for 10 hours as I live in a condo..blah blah. All power is correct to the Grandee tub but no power light. I think I want to hang myslef at this point. Any Ideas? Ray

Yea, it's only money! Installing the electric, external led lights and some decking today. Hopefully start filling it up by mid afternoon.
