Your Spa Could be Up-Graded for a lot less than the cost of a new unit
The average age of a portable hot tub in Sacramento is approaching 15 Years old. Generally as a rule of thumb the machinery ceases
to be cost effective regarding repairs around 10 years of age. In an effort to provide you with a reliable spa consider having Aquastar
upgrade your equipment . You'll find the spa not only becomes reliable but costs less to run with the enhancements digital controls
offer not to mention temperature control.

1st Step... Call for an Evaluation
If you spa is older than 10 Years An evaluation will be the first step towards the Repair . I'll Want to look at all aspects of the spa :
heating,filtering,cabinetry ,any installed accessories ,the flooring and the over-all condition of the spa . Whether it holds water or has a
slow leak and lastly the power supply. The National Electric Code has changed recently regarding permanently installed portable hot
tubs and spas! Double Pole GFCI protection now required on new 220Volt installations .
Aquastar can determine whether or not a successful repair can be made on your hot tub or if a component upgrade is indicated .

To insure proper operation and warranty of repairs a good cover is absolutely essential . We sell Mountain Tops covers a reputable
company offering a variety of densities and colors
Prices Start at $325.00Tx Prepaid (Incl Delivery) $20.00 Disposal fee* on old cover. ( *Covers less than 50 pounds)

Deciding on Equipment....
Depending on whether or not to upgrade is common with older spas Replacement Mechanical Control boxes are actually more
expensive now than digital control units .Temperature control is un-matched .With digital if you want the water at 102 degrees it will be
102 degrees. 120 Volt units don't benefit as much as 220 Volt units but the ability to lock on to water temperature can reduce your
monthly bill as much as $10-$12.00 and save wear and tear on the machinery . The industry has responded recently by offering
smaller more adaptable digital replacement control for those spas out there that are still structurally sound but the machinery is tired
.With the cost of spa being what they are or an in ability to remove the unit consider upgrading, you may find that the spa can offer a
level of performance you never had with the original equipment

As the Spa season heats up I'm reminded about a nasty problem associated with the forced air unit also known as the blower. The
problem is on some older spas the blower channel is flooded with water when the unit is not running and can go stagnate. Since
there is no circulation of water thru the blower channel only air. Bacteria can build up to unsafe levels unless the blower is turned on at
least once a week to expel the old standing water. Do not confuse the forced air unit with the jets' its only those older units that have
small holes drilled into the seats and flooring have the potential of developing high levels of Myca bacterium and also those spa
where the blower isn't working. Contact Aquastar Spa Repair regarding the appropriate means available with your spa to prevent
bacteria from spoiling your enjoyment of the hot tub this summer .
