I spoke with the owner, Paul who was very honest and informative with me about what my needs were and the total cost of ownership for a swim spa. To heat a large swim spa for the winter in New England could... and I emphasis could, could be very expensive. He suggested that I either use the system at a cooler temp in the winter to lessen the electrical cost or purchase a smaller system. Or, if affordable, go with two independent systems, one smaller unit for warm therapy year round, and a smaller swim spa for the warmer months. The unit I was interested in used a total of 1900-2000 gallons of water which is great for swimming but expensive to heat in the winter. Or, I could go with a smaller tub of 325 gallons which is much less to heat, and purchase a smaller swim area that would be used for the warmer months. Plenty of water to keep cool in the summer but drained during the winter months. He was realistic in electrical usage for tubs and spas and provided a possible range of electrical costs in my area based on water temp. As I stated, he was quite informative. Time to rethink my pool/tub strategy! Thanks Paul!
