Hot tub parts

That’s why my family just winterizes our tub, not dealing with frozen crap.

This sounds like the worst idea unless you are Matlock and Betty White and Fawk off for the winter!

Winter is my favorite time to use it

Same.

So i drained the tub, vaccumed out the lines.
Pump looks fine, just a block of ice though.
Once it thaws out should be fine.

This heating elemement looks fine, but it was tripping the breaker instantly, so there is a short in it and need a new one. 50$

Beachcomber tubs have always been good to me but their service center SUCKS.... it's a 3rd party set up and they tried to scam me for $6000 in repairs - told them to fawk themselves and did the repairs myself with parts from spa-tech in Spruce, they were awesome to deal with, budget friendly rebuilt pumps, provided advice and parts.

Down east we had a bullfrog tub and it was an awesome unit - picked it up used (6 years old) for $3500 and it was flawless for over 2 years till we sold the house. I can't believe the price of new ones - I love my hot tubs, have had one for the past 15 years at all 3 houses. We will get one for the new house but I have to have an electrician in to revamp my electrical and add a pony panel to feed the outdoor GFI - my current indoor panel is maxed.

I use a wifi remote temp sensor, i can access it on my phone anywhere. No chance of a frozen tub without getting notified of a low temp well before hand. $100 on amazon.

Our sunray tub is still working fine. In 14 years had the pump seal replaced 4 times, only on one of the pumps.

Sound like they have went down hill pretty hard. Reading a bunch of reviews on them, and sounds like their quality isnt that great, and they are absolutely horrible with warranty.

Does anyone know a Stacey (a man) around the edmonton area that works in hot tubs. I used to get stuff from him 20 years ago when I lived in Beaumont and he was great. Seemed like he actually had some integrity.

I've ignored my Arctic Spa for 2 years, it needs fresh water and a good cleaning. Then fresh water and for me to actually use it.

We use our tub 5 days a week or more

I got lucky when I ordered me cover back in the day

Wont be getting the part till later in the week. And it supposed to go to -30 again in a few days. So probably out of commission for 2 or 3 weeks until it warms up again.

Going to get one of those thermometers that I can check from my phone. If it was real cold out could have been worse!

I love mine. Spa boy app takes care of everything. I wanna get another one for the lake. But $$$$ and I also don’t really need two tubs. So many times I leave the lake cause I gotta chill and I wanna go home to my Hot Tub lol

I don't have spa boy on mine. It was here when we bought the acreage. It has the onzen salt system though. I thought about having them retrofit it with spaboy.

It works good. Once a month I add salt balance. Monitoring water on app. So easy. They say we should manually check it. But we just go by the app almost always.
