Guest drprwnap Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Check out all the major brands: Marquis, HS, Sundance, Jacuzzi, ect. The BEST forum availabe is www.whatsthebesthot-tub.com. GREAT advise there. Also, be sure to WET TEST. You shouldn't buy a spa without testing it with water in it. That way, you'll know if you float out of the seats or not. In some models you will, in others, you won't. The only way to find out is to wet test. Take your time. Don't get pressured into a sale. It took me about 6 months to finally decide. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spatech (the unreal one) Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Aran, If you go to the websites of some of the major spa brands, you will find a dealer finder where you can enter your zip code and find out who is local. I'd suggest you look at makers like Sundance, Hot Spring, Marquis, Caldera, Artesian, D1, etc. Visit them all, wet test, ask lots of questions, find out who services them, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Michael Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Aran- Have you looked at Arctic Spas or Coyote Spas? They are built for the Tahoe climate. They are energy efficient, and the dealer is located close to the Tahoe Keys. How did you like the 22 feet of snow you had last winter? Thanks, Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Todd Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Aran, I would like to invite you to take a look at Beachcomber Hot Tubs. Our dealer for the Tahoe area Wright Outdoor Center in Sparks. We were originally designed and built in Canada for the Canadian winters so when it comes to efficiency and quality for a harsh environment like Tahoe, you can't beat us. Take a look and I beleive that it will be exactly what your looking for. I am personally from Northern Ca, and know tahoe well, so I know what your looking for. I actually have a place in Big Bear California, not as great as Tahoe, built still a pretty harsh environment and my beachcomber has performed with out fail.
