BE AWARE:

A hot tub and swim spa expo that advertises multiple brands and special savings “this weekend only” is not usually the safest or smartest place to buy a product you hope to enjoy for many years to come. These expos are usually a high-pressure sales environment showcasing only one brand and they are here this weekend and gone the next with little to no after-sales support for their product.

Here Today, Here Tomorrow!

The world’s number one selling hot tub, Hot Spring Spas, and Artesian Pools & Spas will not be at these pop-up expos. Artesian Pools & Spas has a local showroom in Bloomsburg. In regard to home shows, Artesian Pools & Spas occasionally participates in locally established, reputable home shows in our service area.

Tips & Tricks While at the Expo Shows

You need to make this kind of decision in peace. At Artesian Pools & Spas, we want to make sure you get the absolute best hot tub for you and your family. We even suggest you schedule a consultation in your own backyard before you take delivery.

Artesian Pools & Spas offers you the opportunity for a “wet test” before you buy. We offer this both as a test soak for hot tubs or a test swim in an Endless Pools Fitness System. These wet tests allow you to feel the jets, make sure the water depth fits your height, and the seating fits your body. Even if you don’t want to get all the way in, it’s still important to see the spas in operation and be able to feel the pressure of the jets by dipping your arms in the water.

Sales reps want to close deals as fast as they can to earn their commission and keep your deposit. The claims and counterclaims you’ll hear for their products will boggle your mind. In fact, you are likely to hear that if you’re not going to buy today, they can’t help you because they work on commission. They’ll try to sell you what’s on hand, and if you order something like a custom color it could take months for delivery – and that’s if you receive it at all! Don’t be pressured to buy today. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

When the “expo” price says 50 percent off, chances are that’s their regular price you’re looking at. Frequently, the expo price is even higher than the regular price, so that the sellers can recoup the high cost of the booth and expenses from you! The reason you were drawn to shop their expo is likely because of their advertising campaign. These ad campaigns cost them a lot of money, and they know how to get it back by making you think you are saving big. Don’t fall for their tactics.

One of the main reasons to avoid buying from a spa expo is because when the sales event ends, you are usually left without a local showroom or anyone to answer questions, much less provide service after the sale. That’s no way to buy a hot tub or swim spa. Your spa should be an investment in a product that you will enjoy for years to come, and spas need maintenance and service to keep your investment performing how you deserve it to.

Tips & Tricks While at the Expo Shows

At a traveling spa expo, the rows of spas are no place to make an informed decision about a relaxation investment of thousands of dollars you hope will provide enjoyment and relaxation, and last for years to come.

  5. What options do you have for water care that’s chlorine and bromine free?
  6. What about delivery? Is it driveway drop-off or full service to the exact spot where I want it in my backyard? Is this in writing?
