Arctic Cub Vs Sundance Certa?

[Adaminohio]

I recently took back a costco infinity tub as the cost was $65.00 last month (jan09) and 50.00 for the months before. I have narrowed down now to the Arctic cub or the sundance certa. I live in northern ohio and want to know which tub will be more efficient. Both have about the same warrany and similiar cost but the cub is designer series with one pump while the sundance has 2. Thanks- Adam

Untill you stick your butt in either one you won't know if 1 pump or 2 pumps is what you need. Or whether they are even comfortable for you.

The reality is you are not making the decision on the #1 factor - which tub feels better when you sit in it (wet). If you can afford the tub, who cares if once cost $5 or $10 more per month to operate. You are comparing a Corvette vs a Porsche based on gas mileage.

Also a multi pump system should only cost more if you are using it more often. All tubs generally heat on a the low speed of 1 pump or a circulation pump.

Wet test the spa, do you like using it on high speed for 30 minutes or do you like to soak?
