Is that cheap or second hand spa safe?

Is that cheap or second hand spa safe?

Published by Jason Ford on 22nd Jan 2026

We recently replaced a spa from another company that had caught fire. The homeowner was lucky as they were home and were able to stop the fire setting the entire home on fire. The deck was damaged and the spa a write off. No parts available from the company that sold it and not worth repair. 

The HotSpring spa we repalced it with has been tested to stringent Australian and NZ electrical standards. All spas we deliver are installed by our on staff Electrican Robert Ford. All installations are safe and meet all applicable NZ electrical standards and requirements. 

Is that cheap or second hand spa worth the risk?
