Islander Spa Features

Below are some of the features you should look for when shopping for your new spa. Higher pricing does not mean higher quality. Islander Spas are high quality spas designed by people who have been in the in the industry for over 20 years. The top people at Islander Spas worked for some of the largest spa manufacturers in the country, and bring with them the expertise and skill to produce a high quality spa at a very reasonable price.

Centrex

The beauty of Centrex is that smooth feeling along with an almost indestructible quality. That's why some of the most expensive spas in the world are made of this material. Also notice the jets located in the upper neck area pointing down, great for the shoulders. The terracing in the seating area allows for a lot more jetting variations than the cup type on the seat to the right. When shopping for spas take special notice of the jet quality, do they turn smoothly when you move them by hand, are the control rings easy to move, are they easy to replace?

Upgrades

A number of upgrades are available from Islander Spas. Starting at the top and moving clockwise, the Acura digital control pack, the Corona discharge ozonator (puts out 4x more ozone than fluorescent), the fully programmable Acura digital control pad, and the Aquassage for the neck. Some of these features are not available on other brands, but you and your customers will love out low prices on these features.

Pumps

All spa motors are not built the same. Most manufacturers use Class "C" pump motors that have far less insulation than Class "F" pump motors. That means the Class "F" will withstand far greater temperature extremes without thermal overload. They also use a solid state starting capacitor, which starts the pump in stages rather than all at once, that will increase the pump life up to 4 times that of other types. These motors are also continous rated rather than peak rated, that means if a pump is rated at 4hp it will continously put out 4hp, pumps that are rated in peak only produce the peak power when they are first started, then the hp will drop in that same 4hp pump to about 2 hp continous. That means you will have less flow and will reduce the pressure to the jets where you need it most.

Quality

Every feature incorporated in the deluxe "ES Series" Islander Spa has been well thought out for your comfort, ease of use, and reliability. Notice the safety rails which are great for those with limited mobility. Again, notice the contouring in the seats. The lounge is angled to keep you from floating away and the seats will fit as comfortably as your favorite pair of sneakers. Air buttons, known for their extreme reliability and low cost to replace, are standard. We do have the "Acura" fully programmable digital topsides available. The filtering system has the best skimming action of any on the market with the most accessible filter cartridge.
