Trying to find a quality product that is energy efficient and low maintenence
Answer
First go sit in all three when they are empty. Check out how much leg room there is , and how many jets there are for
each seat. The larger the hot tub is, the more it will cost to
heat it. Is it 110 volts or 220 volts, 220 is cheaper to run, but you may have to have new electrical wiring run by an electrician. How many people will be using it at the same
time ( back to size and cost ), trust me you don't want to
try to have 5 people in a 4 person tub. Check the Energy Star
rating, or ask the sales people for something showing how
much energy the unit uses.
Find out how long all components are under warranty, not just
the tub itself, the pumps, the jets, the water lines, etc.
Don't be afraid to ask, compare all three, don't rush
Jacuzzi and Hotsprings are both reputable companies, I don't
know about Sundance.

what else will I need to get to make my free hot tub work right?
Rose G
I am thinking of getting a free hot tub. I mean I see them all the time. I see hot tubs for sale for thousands of dollars and I am thinking why not be one of theose people who get something for almost nothing.... but there is always a catch right? So I am thinking before I get one I will find out what else I need, and if its something I can get for cheap or is it gonna cost me an arm and a leg. I mean I know I will need chemicals, but beyond that. If I get just the shell for free, I figure I will need to build a box to hold it, sometimes I see them with it for free though, but a box and a hot tub for free... then what.
Answer
Hi...the above guy is correct for the most part. You best bet is to buy a new Balboa VS retrofit spa pack that will come with the electronic controls, a new heater and all the controls with a three year warranty to boot. Next you might need to buy some new pumps that can easily run $325-$450. Labor will run around $65 an hour. Look on the bright side for basically you can $1500 you can get yourself a new hot tub on the inside.
