We just bought a new spa to be installed next month. We used spa world and bought a monarch because our builder (who also installed our pool) recommended them. Don't know the installation costs as it's part of a bigger building project.

They'd stopped doing the hexagonal "knight" which was in our planning approval so we asked what else they had and ended up the Grand Duke with a seconds (slight damage but repaired and same warranties) for 8.5k.

I'm told the running costs might be up to $1000 per annum - horrid thought!

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

We have bought a pool, which will be put in next month.

Fibreglass pool 10.4m x 4.4m , solar heating, 80m concrete around the pool, retaining wall (we have a sloped block), pool lights, franna crane to carry in the pool, spa jets in pool, solar pool cover, creepy crawly etc etc : $42,300

Still to come : fencing around the pool & paving for around the pool and of course landscaping.

Expected final cost $47,500 approx. :eek:

The pool itself was $37,000 but its always the extra's that add up. We did admittedly choose one of the biggest fibreglass pools available with all the extra's, but other quotes we had where either the same or dearer for the same/similar quality.

We did look at sinking an above ground pool, and that would have cost just under half the price for the whole package.

Oh My God!!! Are you rich mate??? :pThink I'll settle for the Spa, its cheaper!

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

Furkme!!! That's a hell of a lot of money! :eek:

Sounds great though :cool:

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

Thats why you don't buy and Oz made spa, no insulation in the cabinet (or very little). So they loose heat and money like a bugger.

Go for the full foam ones, cost more but cost less to keep warm. I think the running cost is about 50c a day.

This is the one we got http://www.hotspring.co.nz/Showroom/Grande/Grande.html :thumbup:

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

Yeah they were very good and the after care has also been good, any problems and the odd part has been replaced with no fuss:thumbsup:

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

Thanks, we are really looking forward to it.

I actually made a mistake. The pool itself is "only" $34,500. (we where looking at the 12m first which was $37,000) It'll still be around $47k when we finish. You have to be realistic about these things. We have renovated/built many times in the past, and hoping that it wont be as expensive you think never works. :thumbdown:

4 weeks and they should have started (if planning permission all goes through ok)

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

the blow up spas are ok - but you have to replace the filters. we have sold over 250 of them in australia

remember these spas are only a entry level spa and not the best. if you can save up for a better one -I would

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

most of the site in australia do not have any prices on (why) ?? ( ours does) cause we offer the best prices and top quality .

you can also try and win one of ours!

Re: Spa/Swimming pool thread.....
 

we were supposed to be putting a pool in over winter - didn't quite happen that way though :mad:

I'm hoping it's a bit like childbirth and all the pain we went through starts to fade with time
