We chose a crescent bay tub as an ideal size and spec for our holiday/ retirement here in Argyll. I have owned and enjoyed a compact and well specified tub here at home and was used to Balboa controls etc.
Living in Argyll, most research has to be done on line, so Blue Whale Spa came up as a trustworthy company with a very wide range of spas and specifications and keen pricing to suit all budgets (at time of purchase the Crescent was on offer and 4 years interest free credit)
I wanted a tub suitable for 2 but room for occasional guests, maximum water depth and multi pumps of 3 hp (1.5kw) for powerful massage but leaving wife in calm waters!!
I was able to download great specifications re sighting and power supply 32amp armoured cable etc and access guidance.
Called BWS direct was able to gain further advice from very helpful staff and was able to ask if airblower was available but assured pumps were very powerful and of course cold air cools water and costs more in heating- important for a Scotsman!!
After consulting the 'Boss' I called and ordered, taken through process of interest free credit (very simple) arranged suitable delivery/installation date. Very sensibly he asked for fotos of access and driveway and position for tub.
Now the best part the delivery and installation/demonstration is included in purchase price. Although just over 1 hour from Glasgow some delivery companies (eg Groupon) believe Tighnabruaich is on the moon. Two incredibly knowledgeable and hilarious young men arrived with flat bed truck, which I thought too wide to get through my gates, but with incredible skill manouvered to my prepared base without a scratch. Their patter was great and when they saw our strong water pressure they were delighted! their constant advice was great and very health and safety.
Delighted with our tub watched many stars (dark skies in Argyll) and would thourghly recommend BWS to anyone in the market for a solid high spec tub at a sensible price.
