Constant issues with saltwater system

I've had my Grandee since October and have had nothing but issues with my saltwater system. Its supposed to be easy but it is not. I say this as a commerical pool operator. Cartridges have lasted 3 to 4 weeks instead of 4 months. Have been working with service department for 2 months and it's still not resolved.

Found it a little expensive for this type of Spa. Should have 100% disable veterans discount.

Thank you for your service and for considering Hot Spring Spas.

As the manufacturer, we financially support the warranty while the local dealer will be the ones to execute the service. The warranty covers parts and labor.

As it turns out, dealers have sole discretion to set actual prices, which will vary based on options, accessories, installation costs, destination charges, finance charges, taxes, and other local factors.

Third Generation Grandee

Customer avatar
MattT

This is our third Hot Spring Grandee since 1989. Our Grandee is a big part of our lives. Our children are now 28 and 24 years old. At 4-6 months old they were in the Grandee learning to swim, my wife was a swimming instructor with infants. We are now getting close to having grandchildren, they too will learn to swim in our new Grandee. Living on a lake in Northern Michigan it is vital that each generation is comfortable in the water.

Love the hot tub and the size of the Grandee. Would not have wanted anything smaller. It is just the two of us but it is heaven on earth. We have had it almost two months and in it everyday. So relaxing and the massage spots (King and Queen) are awesome. It is a rolling wave of water massaging your back. Love all the controls so the strength of the stream can be regulated. Feels so good in the Texas Fall weather. Love it...Love it...gotta have one.

Customer avatar

My first Hot Springs Tub also a Grandee lasted 20 years! That's right 20 years. The only maintenance we ever did was to replace the heater and covers which I did myself.
As for the new one, the simplicity of the unit is great, jets are still the same after so may years. My only concern is the new technology. Is it really going to stand the test of time? The hand held controller, not a fan, not sure why controls just aren't on the unit. Already experiencing some lag when trying to turn on. Have also replaced the salt chlorinator for the firs time and it keeps wanting to test it and telling me it's time to replace. It's only been 2 weeks so I know it just didn't reset.
Other than that future concern, the tub is awesome. Cover could be a little thicker but good enough. Hope this tub lasts another 20 years!

We have had quite a number of spas in our life and this is by far the best one we have had. Love the jets and the power of the pumps. Sometimes we have to turn the pressure down, which is pretty unusual for us!

Yikes, that is rotten luck. I am sorry to hear the spa is having this electrical issue so soon after arriving; though, this is good the spa is within its warranty for repair. Look out for an email from me directly to check that all is being addressed for your spa to work properly.

Love this spa, if I could make changes.....
A few more jets down low for sore ankles. The corner seats tend to ease you out, almost have to make an effort to sit upright against the jets, and although the corner seat height is ok for me, for the women its a little low, have to get some boosters.
FYI, I bought this spa because of the moving back massage, did not disappoint!!!

Our first hot tub

We are in our 70’s and buy all needed items on line. Neither of us have been inside any store since March. I searched on line for a hot springs spa as our son in MN has a hot springs and they have been very pleased with theirs. I found the one I liked (grandee) and called Desert Hot Springs Chandler AZ. I visited with Jeff Geffre and he answered all of our questions and concerns. He offered to stop by and visit with us and bring brochures. He came to the backyard and we social distanced and talked hot tub 101! He helped us decide where to put ours. We needed an electrician for wiring the tub and we went with Victor from VR Electrical Services. He and his son were great to work with. We bought the Grandee in September and it was delivered to Desert Hot Springs on Friday the 18th of October and installed on Monday the 21st. It was an exciting day to watch our hot tub swing over our wall and tree and be set down right next to the cement patio. Ron and his crew had it totally installed in 2 hours! We were using our spa a few hours later once the water had warmed to our setting. So far, we have used it morning and night and are enjoying it. I didn’t give the high mark on ease of water care as we are having an issue of high ph and low chlorine. We are dealing with the store water care specialist And hope to have the water problem solved. So a big thank you to Jeff G, Ron, Victor and Anthony!!
