      Had a recent terrible experience purchasing a Swim Spa from Aqua Living in Covington, LA. Very poor communication from salesperson, Julie. Swim spa was delivered 2 months ago and still not running. Did everything LPI, Inc tech line requested, 2 ground wires, GFCI breaker, etc. and still trips GFCI breaker. Refused to send tech out until I ran another ground wire from house to spa for another $800. 2 electricians stated not necessary with 10ft ground rod and the other ground wire. I sent a letter to the CEO, received an email from assistant and setup a tech call. I followed up with phone calls, and emails to the tech and CEOs assistant to get this appt confirmed. Tech visit on 10/28/24, stated nothing wrong with spa and he recommended to replace GFCI breaker with regular breaker, not in specs. Asked if this would void warranty, as against specs, response was no because he will come out if further issues. Questioned the safety of reg breaker and he said not a problem. He sees GFCI breakers tripping always. He stated he would put on the ticket it was a fuse to avid paying for service call. Received an e-mail from LPI CEO assistant, they were taking care of the service call, but fuse is customers responsibility . How can a fuse be my responsibility on a brand new $15,000 spa delivered over 2 months ago and still not running? Sent email back stating the conversation that I had with tech and my concerns of not having a GFCI breaker installed on a swim spa for safety issues. My electrician did not want to install the non GFCI breaker, as it is against code and is not safe if something electrical would occur on the swim spa while a person was inside the swim spa in the water, as the breaker would not trip and turn off the swim spa for the person’s safety. This has been a nightmare and a very unprofessional experience with the purchase of this piece of equipment. I am now concerned having a non GFCI breaker installed on this swim spa and worry that it is not safe.

      We apologize for the confusion and frustration, specifically directions from a third party technician that directly contradicted the manual and site preparation material available online. A solution has been agreed upon privately, and we are eager for you to enjoy your new swim spa!
