Somebody else might say the Worlds most sold spa is the best well I doubt that also because that's a bit like saying the most sold of anything is the best and I am sure we all know that cannot be true as the best is always a bit exclusive and to be exclusive you can not be the worlds most sold spa can you ! Its as if you were the most common so that argument also fails to hold water and to underline the point for example a Rolls Royce car possibly one of the best in the world is not the most sold car in the world.

The Best built Spa in the World Yes that's more like it perhaps combined with the best Value Spa in the world. So we are looking for the combination of two factors high build quality and a top product coupled with value for money.

Now the question is how do you get the best built Spa in the world

Well for starters you might consider the following:-

A good acrylic shell like one from Lucite or Quarite both top quality North Amercian manufacturers who have been around for a long while. Something like 30 to 40 years so they know their onions as I would say.

A layer of ABS with proper hand laid glassfibre to provide added strength and rigidity to the shell.

Some careful consideration and calculations based on the water volumes and pipe work and that kind of thing would be helpful. Careful thought of plumbing lay out combined with a manifold plumbing system. This to ensure efficency in the plumbing and keep the operating noise to a minmum.

So we have a shell some pipe work what else do we need ?

Some Jets would be a good idea to introduce the water into the Hot Tub and here I would suggest not those that are merely copied from years ago but those that can take air and mix with water in a venturi sytem. This venturi effect supercharges the water increasing the flow and strength considerably. Also it is always good if the jets are fully adjustable.

Now we need some good pumps coupled with proper strength motors.

Motors to drive the pumps and pumps to drive the water now that makes some sense.

Of course we don't want any under powered motors we need those that work well and have good reliability to provide an anticipated long life.

We want proper western pumps made to either North America or European standards

We need a heater and some controls commonly referred to as a Spa pack.

This is of course very important as it works the whole system of the Jacuzzi the only two that spring to mind are Balboa and Gecko both well known makes.

If the Spa you are thinking of does not have controls from either of those think again or better still simply ask the sales man why they don't and what make do they have.

What else ? perhaps an Air Blower would be good.

Some automatic introduction of Ozone and I hear you shout out what the heck is that ? Everybody I ask claims that they know what it is but I doubt it very much. Ozone is a word that the majprity of us have heard but just because we hear it does that mean we really know what it is.

Ozone is a form of" supercharged or active oxygen", nature's very own special molecule and interestingly enough the composition of one ozone molecule contains three oxygen atoms.

Ozone is created automatically in nature by the process of mixing together, oxygen from the air with ultraviolet rays from the sun or by the very tremendous power generated by an electrical discharge during a lightning storm.

Obviously there are many other things to consider such as Aroma therapy and of course one needs to consider the Electrical requirements required and of course a Site Survey is essential.

This is article is in no way exhaustive and it merely touches lightly on some of the items required.
