Sounds like good advice to always only buy a spa if you can see it running first. I was also wondering 2005, isn't that too old for a used spa? I'm thinking maybe the plastic/fiberglass might be really frail. As well to access the equipment under the spa, is it usually a nightmare to get to the parts because of the sprayed insulation?

Thanks cranbiz for the advice. I wouldn't hire anyone to do the repair work, I would do it myself. What I worry is more how could I find the parts. I live in Montreal and not sure how accessible parts would be. I saw there's also more generic parts, how well can we make them fit on older spas? Pumps, typically do people try to rebuild them?

Hi, This is a very vague question but hear me out. I never owned a hot tub but know pool stuff and equipment. One of my neighbors is selling the attached spa with following description : 2004. Sunrise Spa Genesis 250 6 person Sunrise Spa. 3 motors (2 need to be replaced); 1 airblower; all pumps have new mechanical seals; heater, lights and control panel all work; most jets have been replaced; plastic outer siding is grey and brown, can be replaced . Attached is picture Should I even think about checking it and think about possibly fixing it? Thanks Mat
