2. Are there any special instructions to fill my
spa at start up? |

Answer: Just fill with a
garden hose and enjoy. Use test strips to determine the content of metallic
minerals in your water, balance the pH and start the sanitation process.
We have the products to help you with this.

3. How is a spa delivered
from your warehouse? |

Can I place my spa on a deck? |
||
|
Answer:
Yes, but be sure to check with the deck
builder to determine the weight capacity that your deck can support. |
||
| 5.
Can the spa be placed in my yard on grass or dirt? |
||
|
Answer: Generally the spa
should have a supportive, level base to sit on. We recommend a 4 inch
concrete slab, or a well-constructed, supportive wooded deck. If either of
these options are not available you can purchase a pre-fabricated resin spa
pad that comes in 6 pieces and is designed to support the weight of a
spa. The portable spa pads sells for approx $300 and can be purchased from
your local spa dealer. Another good alternative would be to use pea gravel
on level ground. This keeps the spa away from water and is a quality
installation, yet economical. It is also easily reversed if you have to
move and take your spa. |

| 6.
What are the electrical costs associated with a spa every month? |
||
| Answer: Depending on the size, amount of use and outside temperature, on average most models cost average $20.00 per month. That is with keeping the spa temperature at 100 degrees and using it for one hour every day. Heat rises, so the longer the cover is off the more the heater has to work to keep the temperature up. |
