Evaluation Of Used Hot Tubs

When you remember that a new spa can cost $5,000 or even more

, purchasing used hot tubs makes lots of sense. There's often difficulty buying used ones due to permanent installation. When purchasing any 2nd hand spa, ensure you check for any insulation cracks, leaks or damage.

A buyer should be sure to take into consideration how to move the hot tub to your house from the location of the seller. Also, preparation of the area where the equipment will be situated is important when budgeting due to the potential extra costs involved.

Used hot tubs will often need cleaning and decontamination due to the health risks . Spas that look clean on the surface might have concealed threats like bacteria, viruses, fungus, and mould in the plumbing system. Pipes and plumbing could have a sticky coating of the body oils from prior users as well as other organic pollutants. There are products around to flush out the system.

Is the electric wiring satisfactory to hookup this added draw on power for the room where the installation will happen? It can be particularly perilous when there's water around to do any electric work or repairs. You could have a certified electrical craftsman do any wiring or rewiring for the spa hookup. Ensure all of the electric energy is off and disconnected before any inspections or repairs are done.

Spas that have not been run for some time or have been stored empty may have condensation that causes corrosion to form on electrical components. The shafts of the motor pumps that have not been used can also rust. In addition to this, there could be still be water in the plumbing. If the spa is stored at a very cold temperature, the water can freeze and expand, causing cracks and fractures to the plumbing system.

Spas stored in heat (such as the sun) can also suffer damage with visible blistering. This could worsen if the hot tub has no water in it. Perform your inspection on a hot tub filled with water and run it for twenty-four hours with the temperature set to maximum. You will then be able to spot any leaks or system problems.

Purchase a spa by looking in your local newspaper classified section. Many people are moving and need to sell their equipment. Auction sites online are usually not the best place to look because any shipping costs would be impractical and you would be buying the hot tub unseen.

When reaching a decision, remember to account for the spa style / design, any additional features, the age of the spa and naturally the general condition. Used hot tubs from a dealer may include a guaranty as the spa was bought using financing and the individual was not able to keep on sending payments. This is unquestionably worth considering and could save everyone a tidy sum, but check the details first.
