Hello, I am in the process of replacing all of our equipment as we complete a pool remodel here in Los Angeles. The only thing we are keeping is a Hayward Salt Chlorination System. We need to replace the heater, pump and filter on our approx. 24,000 gallon pool. Is a variable speed pump necessary? Worth the expense? Also, is 400k BTU overkill. We get pretty direct sun for most of the day from about 10am-5pm but the water never really gets above 75' consistently unless we have 90' weather for a few days straight. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello there! Although we've been talking about it for a long time, last Saturday my wife and I, on a whim, went into our first spa store in West LA, Pacific Spas and Sauna. We looked around at their spas, and (after dry tests only) we're focused on the Sundance Cameo and the Caldera Cantabria. Although the tub will mostly be for me and my wife, we want a big tub for social gatherings. We like the idea of a lounger, but as I said, no wet tests yet. I started doing research soon thereafter, which led me to this place. And I've already done enough reading in the Hot Tub Water Chemistry to almost scare me off the whole thing. I think I might be a bromine kinda guy, but that's another discussion... I've seen that both Sundance and Caldera seem to be top brands, but other brands like D1 are also getting my attention. I looked on Yelp and saw a bunch of negative reviews of PS&S, which scared the crap out of me. So I wanted to check here. PS&S has a "deal" on a 2011 (?) new Cantabria that was apparently ordered and then the buyer had to back out...whatever. Doesn't matter. The offer on the table is $10K, which includes the spa, hydraulic cover lift (don't know the brand), Durastep, the first batch of Aquafinesse (which, according to what I've read, I may not even use), tax, and delivery. Anyway, I'm here to see if anyone on the boards here have dealt with this dealer. We have a wet test planned for sometime this week, but I'd like to know whether to keep the appointment. I don't want to spend that much money and have the dealer abandon me if I have trouble (which is what almost all of the negative Yelp reviews say). Is this a good price? Is the dealer reputable? What other dealers do people on this board like in SoCal? What other tubs should I be looking at? Thanks in advance.
