Answer
Yes you can transport it on its side. I delivered hot tubs before. The easiest way it to tip it up on one side. Then lift a corner and slide a furniture dolly under it. The ones with 4 wheels under a 2x4 frame. Roll it up to a truck bed. Lay a piece of cardboard or carpet in the bed and leave some hanging over the edge of the tailgate. Now put the ho tub on the ground behind the truck by about 5 feet. Roll it up and over one corner till it rests on the tailgate. Then lift it up and slide it in. Use some ratchet straps to hold it down. You can get them at a home store or Walmart. Do the reverse to get it out. You should have at least two people to do it.

My Dads passed away and Id like to keep this hot tub as pristeen as it is now. I cant find info for older hot tubs and proper maintence.. everything i do read tho stresses the importance of filters and changing them.. i cant find where 1 would /should go on this tub. Its the kind that has the wood skirt around it. Seats like 6 or 8.. i think the tub is 8x8 . At the bottom of the inside there is like a mesh round thing where the water gets circulated from, its a small wire mesh kinda cage. But thats about it, it catches leaves and such but not small debris like an accordian paper kind of filter would.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Ive looked all over this tub. There is a skimmer basket thing that you access on top of the tub, where leaves go in from the side thru the lil door thing (i know, im being techinical now) but that water in the skimmer basket goes no where. IM at a loss !!

help!



Answer
The skimmer basket thing is the filter. There is probably a screw cap on top of it or someway to get the top off and then the filter is inside the plastic cage thingy. Pull that off and you will find the filter. Make sure you find it and keep it clean, cuz that is the most important part of a spa. That water going to the skimmer basket is going somewhere. Make sure the spa is in pump mode to make the pump pull the water through and work properly.
