-An adult (person aged 18+) must be present to accept delivery within the hours that have been arranged.

-Have a clear walk way of at least a standard doorway to the area.

-A clear, level area 3x3m prepared by removing debris, checking for animal mess, sharp edges and cover if necessary before our arrival.

-Access to water, by way of outside tap and hose or internal taps. Please have hoses ready, or request to borrow one of ours before the day of delivery. If running from internatal taps, please source the correct attachments or send us a photo of the closest tap when booking.

-Access to constant electric. Prefferably from a standard 13amp household socket either indoors or outdoors. The cable can reach just over 5m. Alternatively you must supply a suitable, good condition extension cable. This must be suitable for outdoor use, have a 13amp fuse, have a minimum of 2 plug sockets and be plugged directly into a mains socket (not another extension cable!) Extension cables must be completely unravelled to prevent over heating. The typical 'behind the TV' extension cable will not be strong enough. You WILL need a high quality cable.

Set up times can vary depending on the following factors:

-Parking - if we have to park up the road, it will take longer to unload/load up, if you have a driveway, letting us use it will be appreciated.

-Access - if access to the back garden is through a side gate with no obstruction, this will take considerably less time than navigating through a home.

-Area - if the area is clear, hose and electric are ready for us on arrival, we can start setting up straight away.

-Collection - if the hot tub has already been drained as instructed, we can begin our collection immeditely, a full hot tub can take upto an hour to drain.

-Cleanliness - if the hot tub or any equipment has been badly soiled, we may request to clean the equipment before taking it away as this prevents damages from dirt.

If the above has been considered:

-Just a hot tub can take 10-20 minutes.

-Hot tub and gazebo can take 20-40 minutes.

-Packages can take 40-60 minutes.

We accept BACS payments before delivery. You can opt to pay cash howecer this needs to be arranged prior to installation. If payment isn't received by the date outlined in your delivery message, we reserve the right to offer the hot tub to someone else and will retain the deposit.

Please note - we do not leave our equipment without payment, we do not take payments on collection.

Sometimes the hot tub pump will flash and make noise at you; don't panic! They are preset to do this to inform you that you need to do something... here's some of the most common errors:

E02 - There is a problem with the water flow, the filter is probably blocked. Take it out and clean it, checking the pipes for any debris that may have become caught. Reset (below)

EO3 - The pump is too cold, predominantly in winter. You need to warm the pump up to above 4*c to get it going again. This will only happen at initial set up, and should not happen once the water is circulating. Reset (below)

EO4 - The water temperature is too hot, predominantly in summer. Check the temperature on the pump, if above 40*c, carefully replace some of the water with clean cold water. Reset (below)

EO8 - This is an electrical message. Either a dirty filter has caused the motor to begin to overheat and the pump senses a fault; in which case you need to clean the filter. Or, if using an extension cable, it may have overheated; this happens when it is not capable of drawing the energy that the hot tub requires to heat up. This can also occur from a house hold socket where too many appliances are running off the same circuit (think hot tub, microwave, tumble dryer and a kettle all turned on... it's too much power!) If the plug from the hot tub is hot to the touch; please turn off immediately and call us on 08002884787. Keep turned off until further notice. Reset (below)

If any of the above come up during your hire you will need to reset the pump; here's how:

Turn the power supply off

Wait for the beeping to stop

Turn back on

About a foot down the cable is a 'reset' button, press this

Go to the pump

Lower half of the back of the pump near a yellow sticker is a small reset button, push it

Push the 'power' icon on the pump display (looks like a TV standby button)

Press the 3 flames for heat

If this does not resolve the issue, or the problem you have is different to the above please call us on 08002884787 between 0700-2300

All our hot tubs are for 4-6 adults by the recommendation of the manufacturer.

How long is a piece of string? Fill time is entirely dependant on your water pressure and varies from town to town. You can guage a rough idea by imagining filling up 6 bath tubs. (roughly 1-3 hours)
