hi everyone, (first post) just stumbled across this forum and really glad i did, learnt so much reading posts. anyway i am about to purchase a hot tub (not decided which one yet still wet testing and deciphering jargon etc) I am in england and i understand most of you guys are in U.S. or Canada but that shouldn't really matter, I have narrowed purchase down to Arctic Spa (wet test tomorrow, not sure which model to choose but a 7 footer) a hot springs aria (wet tested) and a spa form (wet test monday) not too keen on last one but will give it the benefit of a wet test and mark it on its merits, I would be glad of any problems you guys are aware of that i should be wary of with the ones i've narrowed it down to. we don't seem to have as much choice as you guys over there apart from alot of cheap chinese ones of ebay and internet firms.
Also does anyone know the difference between theraputic jets and normal hot tub jets? Hot springs tell me that theirs are theraputic and artcic are not, but when i asked him what constitutes a theraputic jet as aposed to a water jet, air jet or water and air he didn't know so is it salesman bull or truth?
Looking at the price you guys are paying over there I might re-locate, $16,000 U.S. for arctic cub over here, $19,000 for hot spring aria, so as you can see I would like to get this right first time....... thanx in advance for any help offered
