Being acquisitive...
Aug. 31st, 2002 04:37 pmSomeone in Redwood City (about 12 miles away) is selling a functional 6-person hot tub (incl. pump, heaters, filters) for about $450. That's tempting... my long-term plans for the back yard include a hot tub in one corner.
I should ask
cjsmith how difficult it is to transport and install... electrical I can handle, but I'd hate to have to dig ditches 100' for water supply and drainage...
Maybe I could offer facility-borrowing privleges to anyone that could help me move it? I have to let the current owner know by tomorrow, she's moving.
Otherwise... today I've spent cleaning out the kid's bedroom. Such excitement... and I still have about a dozen LJ comments and emails that are awaiting reply.

I am not sure about electrical, but it shouldn't be too expensive. I'd call around if you could.

To drain, theres an outlet that you can hook a hose to and then run it to wherever you want the thing to dump.
Biggest bitch is gonna be running 220 service to your tub location. You can do it yourself but for various reasons you'll probably want an electrician to do it.
Tub works best on a slab. Second choice, make a deck.
Make sure to get an insulated cover with it.
