Bob is the owner of Royal Spa Corp. and has a Bachelors
degree from Purdue School of Engineering and over 20 years of experience designing
and manufacturing hot tubs in Indianapolis. This is the difference between right and wrong!
Always
buy a spa that has a non-computer controlled system
There
is nothing on a spa that requires a computer to operate.
The only one
who benefits from spa computers is the repairman.
Always
buy a spa that circulates all the time
Stagnant
water is usually unhealthy.
Stagnant water requires more maintenance.
Turning
a pump on and off again reduces pump life.
Always
avoid buying a spa with a 2 speed pump!
They
are unacceptably noisy when you are trying to relax in the spa at night. They
can also be heard inside the house.
They cause the water to overheat during
the summer time unless turned off during the day.
They are expensive to
operate. The newer technology in the spa industry is gradually phasing out the
2-speed pump because of its high operating cost.
Always
buy a spa that pushes the water through the filter!
No
correctly engineered filter system sucks through the filter.
Suction type
of filter requires considerably more cleaning maintenance and expense.
Restricting
the water coming to a pump reduces its pumping ability.
(It is called a
pump..not a sucker!)
IF
YOU DON'T BUY A ROYAL SPA, AT LEAST BUY A SPA THAT IS PROPERLY DESIGNED.
