Dr. Spa Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 You can. First you have to have the picture hosted on a web site (NOT on your computer!) Then just click the little button above where you type your response. It looks like this, and fill in the field that pops up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry 411, and I know you allready did this but I just gota ask becaues it is the first thing that comes to my mind......you had the load capacity of the roof checked right? Because a Hot Tub and a few...... 30-40 women, may tax the roof. And I'd hate to see the grandee end up in the first floor lobby!!!! Theres less intrusive ways to make a skylight.

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring on the girls......great setup. When we are involved in major construction for paper mills and power generation, they always start by supporting the roof and outer structure and hang floors from there.

I thought I'd read somewhere that a fully loaded hot tub exerts less force per sq ft then a refridgerator. Is this true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

club411 Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 what american sale location did u buy that at!?!? cuz i work at american sale 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Spa Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Just for future reference, as the moderator of this board, you're required to invite me to all parties involving hot tubs (no, I didn't forget about chas, the other moderator, but he's married). This includes any parties where there's a hot tub within 5 miles, unless there are go-go dancers there. Then it includes all parties where there is water within 5 miles. I bought it bolingbrook...

wesj53 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Gee 411, I live near that store and almost bought an Artesian from there. Had I known they included the "attachments" to the tub, I most definitely would have been a customer! Regardless, I'd like to throw a party like yours, but I have a big problem. It's called my wife! Any chance I can get an invite to your next one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
