1 out of 5 stars bad support..........   April 14, 2007
  0 out of 3 found this review helpful

Software appears to work, but I was unable to update it because of a malfunction. Do Not expect help form the vendor, as a matter of fact you will be fortunate to recieve an answer from them. In short buy at your own risk!!!


3 out of 5 stars Useful for maintenance, not for purchase of a spa   August 24, 2006
  6 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is helpful to understand the operations and "guts" of a hottub/spa, but not helpful in making decisions on which brand or type to buy initially. Once you have one, it is helpful in doing repairs yourself, and optimally maintaining it.


5 out of 5 stars Easy to read and understand. It answered all my questions.   June 16, 2006

I own all of Tamminen's excellent pool and spa books. While I'm not a pool professional, I am a do-it-yourself person. Any question I have about installation, maintenance, and upkeep, I find the answers in Tamminen's books. I recommend this book to anyone with a spa or a hot tub. You'll find what you're looking for every time.


1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money on this one   November 16, 2005

If you are looking for info on Spas and Hot Tubs, don't buy this book.br /Most of the info and photos are for Pools and the info on pools is outdated. The only time you see spas explained is when they are part of a pool!br /This looks like a 1970's book on Pools reprinted with a new cover showing spas. I was looking for info on Portable spa heaters and pumps. The book goes into great detail on gas!!! fired water heaters, and concrete???? spas!!!!br /For all of you Portable spa owners.......beware!!!!!!
