water, along with reliability, energy efficiency, low maintenance, beneficial hydrotherapy, and distinctive luxury.


The company has worked to prove those demands, focusing on water quality and therapy but it has introduced light and sound to its products as optional extras.


As customer demographics changed, the potential 25–40 year old ‘baby boomer’ purchasers looked not only for the health aspect of the product but for added value enhancements, value and reliability. This in contrast to the more traditional therapeutic demands of the 40-60 year age group meant that products had to meet the demands of all sectors. Spa Crest Europe warrants its fibreglass spa shell structure against water loss due to defects in materials and workmanship for 10 years with a five year warranty for the interior surface of the spa against blisters and cracks.


The quality Spa Crest Europe offers with its three brands in its range – Spacrest, Coastal and Visions – is crucial but Tony Welsby says value for money is still a critical issue in customer satisfaction. “I think people come into the showrooms looking for a hot tub and they’ve probably got a mate who has got one or they’ve tried one on holiday and they are looking to buy one for themselves which offers value for money. Clearly there are other issues but what they get for their money is crucial.”


Spa Crest strongly promotes the quality of its tub jets from cluster jets, to directionals, foot specific jets, with each jet designed to deliver the utmost in therapeutic massage.


Optional extras on the Spa Crest Europe range include: perimeter LED lighting and neck jets or pillow on lounge seat. There is no by-pass filtration On all Spa Crest’s Series II Models, 100% of the water drawn-in by the circulation pump is filtered, ozonated and heated before returning to the spa. This system keeps a spa crystal clear and ready for use any time.

Rigid vinyl hot tub covers, like this one on a Sundance Spa, were developed with the objective of promoting energy savings, heat conservation and safety


“Spa covers protect a hot tub investment by insulating to save energy, keeping spa water clean and adding a measure of safety”


One of the most popular accessories to a hot tub is still lighting. LED-type lights that change colour, intensity, and brightness to put on a light show are often seen as an important purchase to extend the whole hot tub experience. Many of these lights fit in existing plain light sockets, and of course they can change the entire effect of a hot tub. Other lighting accessories float in a spa. Adding new lights to a spa is an inexpensive way to really change the hot tub experience at night. Spa covers protect a hot tub investment by insulating to save energy, keeping spa water clean and adding a measure of safety. Hot tub covers, like other products that perform a vital function, aren’t always the coolest thing to look at, but they do provide a critical function for a spa. Hot tub covers conserve heat, saving energy and operating costs. And, cleanliness and safety are also strong reasons for keeping a hot tub covered when not in use. In the early days of hot tubs, people used many different ways to keep a spa covered – from wood planks, to plastic tarp, to rocks, to sections of Styrofoam, and later to plastic bubble covers – anything you could imagine to keep the tub clean and the water warm.


Today’s rigid vinyl hot tub cover was developed, with the objective of promoting energy savings, heat conservation and safety. This single-minded vision has led the spa industry to a higher standard of energy efficiency. Almost every hot tub sold is now shipped with a cover. Though a hot tub warranty is such a critically important aspect of a hot tub purchase, hot tub


warranties are often over-looked in the purchasing decision making process. A hot tub is a major investment so buyers want to make certain that their investment is well protected. Warranties have improved over the years as confidence in the reliability of the product has grown. Most hot tub warranties will cover the shell, cabinetry, plumbing, equipment, and controls. spn
