Also, for the 240 volt units there are 2 permits required, one for the electrical supply, and one for the actual hot tub. We found out after the fact, and this did cause problems this is a long story if you want the gory details send me a PM and we can talk on the phone.
I use this quite often, one word of caution do NOT use the typical plastic steps (2 steps high) get a nice set of heavy wooden steps, I just recently fell off the plastic steps, another long story. And finally, yes when this one dies, I will probably get another one.
Absolutely correct. We have a Bullfrog 6 person hot tub/spa. Had electricians run 240V with proper permit and installers got the safety permit. Has to be a certain distance from house. We live in a CYV so that helped.
I only use mine about once a week. Little grand daughters (6 and 9) love it when they visit.
