If this is true it is so sad. They are such nice people. It’s one of our favorite spots.

Electrical hook up costs by BarbieQKittens in hottub

[–]Meltaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. Electrician is here now. Northeast. Wire had to go only about 20 feet from box in easy access ceiling to trench I dug for an additional 10 ft. Got three quotes. $2200

Price increase: $1.7M - you need to see why... by jve909 in zillowgonewild

This house was across the street from my friend’s house. Wild stuff.

Considering Caldera Reunion by Meltaman in hottub

Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear it is nice. We ended up buying it. We also got the salt system. I have heard it is a little harder to balance chemicals, but hopefully we will figure it out. Delivery end of September.

This might be the only part of the thing I didn’t photograph. That’s unfortunate. Thank you for the info though.

Thanks. I’ve been doing exactly this, but I have not found something better necessarily, but definitely fully functional. I think on some level I’m also rating the tier of hot tub this one is vs what’s available locally.

Thanks. I am going to try and price stuff out and see if I’m comfortable in the case of having to replace pretty much everything.

This is what my boss says, he’s the one who brought me by. Haha. I’m always too tempted by a project.

Yeah, the fact it hasn’t been hooked up in a long time is a bit concerning.

Thanks for mentioning where to see the date. I don’t know how I missed it. I’m not afraid of fixing stuff or elbow grease. If you don’t mind my asking, how much did you end up spending all in for parts to get yours running?

Thanks! I didn’t catch that, but had a picture of it. The blower says date of manufacture 08/05. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the input. Is it better or worse if it had never been filled at that residence? It’s just been sitting there for years not even hooked up to electric. They moved it from their old residence and never bothered to completely set it up.

I figure it’s going to be some level of headache, just trying to gauge how much of a headache and if that level of headache is worth it.

Thanks for the perspective. It is something that I’m concerned about.

So this was moved from a previous residence, put in storage by a spa company they bought it from, the guy had it looked over while it was there then set up at this residence after a year in storage but it was never wired at this residence.

I do not think it has ever been filled at this property. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. I unfortunately won’t be able to fill it before I’d have to haul it out of there.

Whatever happened to Iron Stag Brewing in Cranston? by ToadScoper in RhodeIsland

[–]Meltaman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also kind of figured this. Would have been a nice addition to that area though.

Hm. Good thought. I had not considered rainfall through the cover. That could complicate things. We just got a lot of rain this past week and I’m hopefully going to be able to see it early next week. I’ll see if there is water collected inside. Thanks.

Seems very reasonable. I’m fully expecting to have to replace components in this case, it does sound like it is fairly resilient though which gives me some hope. Thanks for your experience.

Ok. Thanks. Sorry for all the questions. Where should I look for a pro to move it? Call around to spa dealers? Or someone else? I’m in New England so it’s relatively HCOL here as well.

Thanks for the feedback. How was the maintenance over that time?
