Spa Pool Heater Changeover

It can be hard to find someone to remove your old spa pool gas heater and re-plumb with a new Astral Pool HX 120 Nat or LPG spa heater. We just finish one job this morning. Spa City Spas removed the old spa heater and rusted base and re plumbed the total system to suit the new Astral Pool HX 120 unit. I have included some old photo before and after shots, these may be on interest to some that have similar situation. The first photo shows the old spa heater this unit is about 20 years old. The next is the finish job showing how we re plumbed all pipe work and made it more well clean looking with the pipe work now at the back of the units and the old rusted steel base gone.

Also we supplied a new Duel Air switch time clock which you can see on the back wall.

Australian Made Portable Spas what to look for

There are a lot of portable spas on offer from all sorts of avenues, like one spa shop advertising on TV with offers of up to 40% off.  Our reports from people that have come into our Showroom after visiting this store found it very disappointing to find that their prices where still higher than ours. You will need to shop around and check your prices before putting money on a product thinking that you are saving lots when in fact your not. Those that search will find as the saying goes. There now are only three main Manufacturers in Australia making portable spa pools. These are all in Melbourne and we deal with 2 of them. You will find as you go shopping some spa shops will tell you that they are made here – ask them who is the manufacturer. The 3 main Manufacturers are – Impact Bathroom Industries, Sapphire Spas and Spa Industries which are now owned by Chinese interests – this range is normally sold through the Just Spas dealers. If they are not any of the above then they will be from Overseas and NOT Australian Made and in some cases not Australian approved.

All Australian Made spas are certified to the Australian Standards. They will be most likely using Australian Spa Equipment and Spa Hard covers will be made here but not in all cases.

If in doubt you can call us on our Mobile for free advise in this area before you buy. We have a large range available to choose from and our prices are the BEST in Town!

Spa Maintenance – Spa Filter Cartridges

Your spa filter cartridges are made from fine polyester paper like material,specifically designed to filter out body oils,dirt and debris etc.” Clean filters – Clean water” Your average life expectancy of these filter element are approximately 12-18 months,with is with proper care and correct water maintenance.

Cleaning intervals are dependent on usage load. Our recommendation is to clean once a week to remove any accumulation of any dirt and others from between each pleat. This can be done by removal of filter element from spa and using your garden hose to wash out any built up of oil and others dirt.

Once a month you should soak your filters in an approved Cartridge Cleaner Product over night. Rinse off and then replace them into your Spa . Some of our Clients will buy a second set so as to not have any downtime with their Spa Usage.

If you are not happy with your water quality
it could be due to your filter cartridge condition. Either due for replacement or due for a good clean. Remember ” Clean filters – Clean water”
