  1. I am in the business but only a service tech. I base my opinion on what I see in the field. If someone asks for opinions on a certain brand and I have knowledge of that brand I will give my opinion. This poster asked about Master and I told him/her what I thought from what I have seen in the field. I do have a warped sense of humor that most folks will not get and if you do not it may come across negatively.
  2. One more thing, some jets have an adjustable face on them for the water flow. See if you can turn the face of jets.
  3. What else would you expect from a Cal Spa tech, anything they see other than a Cal has to be better.
  4. The cheapest, simplest and safest way is to solder in a 1,000ohm resistor in-line with temp sensor. That will get you close to 108 and still be within safety parameters so the high limits will still protect you and the tub. If you do something like this is will void all warranties on the spa though. Of course I have no idea if this works I just heard it from a little birdie
  5. If the difference was 5.5 times as much I see your point but from a low quality spa to a high quality one with comparable options may only be twice as much (probably less than that). If you find a $23K tub it better fill, drain, maintain, by itself and serve you a cold beer.
  6. Sorry I should have said P.O.J. (piece of junk). I call them like a see them.
  7. My intent was not to bad mouth but I can see how it came across that way. My question though I think is valid; You have a nice house, car, you buy quality items for that house and car, you have a nice watch... but when it comes to the spa a lot of people will sell themselves short. If you are buying lets say a stove and you find two, they both have four burners and many of the same features. One cost $750 and one is $250. I think the average consumer would question the quality of the lower cost one, but when it comes to spas most do not. I do not understand that.
  8. A two pump spa with SS jets, ozone, steps for $3477, that has the be a big ole P.O.S. There is no way anyone can build a spa with those items for that price and use quality parts to build it. It may look nice at first but I bet in a couple of years it is falling apart. Not to mention the extra energy it will use. Pay more now or a lot more later, your choice.
  9. $6800 for that 641 with the extras is a very good deal and I think that is about average for the Geneva.
  10. That may be true but Wal-Mart is the only middle man, they do not produce spa or service them. So the question is not about wal-Mart but it is whom built it and who will service it.
  11. Here is another option: http://www.marquisspaoutlet.com/
