I started this group in May of 2003 for hot tub owners to talk about owning and using a hot tub. I wish I had such a group when I was looking to buy our spa. (A five year process ) THIS GROUP IS NOT ABOUT SWINGING OR NATURALIST. (you have your own groups.) I wanted a place to talk about the issue related to buying, using, and installing hot tubs, like what to look for, how to get a good deal, or where to get chemicals. The group will require approval to join that is only to keep out the spammers. You must state something related to hot tubs in your request to join. "I want to join your group" is not acceptable. (The spammers use that one a lot.)
