What Owners Say
Real reviews from real customers
“After managing other water sanitation systems using harsh chemicals, ozone and even silver ion cartridges, this new saltwater system is heavenly! Both the maintenance and the comfortable silky smooth feel of the water when soaking. I’d highly recommend it to anyone!”
Thomas D.

“This is our second Hot Spring Spa. We decided on them again because of our first experience and the fresh water system. It is even better than we expected. Start up and maintenance is as simple as it gets. Highly recommend one look at Hot Spring spas first--simply the best and only choice.”
Peter L.

“After long days and busy schedules it's super awesome to have a personal oasis in the comfort and privacy of our own backyard. We relax, young kids splash and eventually relax on cool down seats.Great addition to family fun and routinely soak to enjoy each other's company and unwind. Wouldn't hesitate to make this purchase!!”
