We were extremely satisfied with our Arctic Spas delivery and setup. The lads arrived on time, were very professional and friendly and got my hot tub installed/filled/running before lunch. Shout out to Duncan and Paul for a great experience.

I have been struggling with skin rashes from my Summit Spa Boy with peak ozone so I went on a hunt for some answers. That led me to finding John Keirstead on the Arctic Spa Owners FB page who has been the number one person I trust from this point forward. He has experience with sensitive skin issues caused by spa chemicals and has graciously educated me on how to fix this, even though I’m not his customer and have never bought anything from his store (I live in Alberta). I am forever grateful to be using my spa to its full potential without using the chemicals that were triggering my skin issues. This hot tub set up turns out to be fairly easy and we were overthinking everything. He said that ozone is my friend and now I’m understanding the magic of the spa boy salt spa with ozone 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I was nearly thinking of selling my spa until I found him. Thank you John for you expertise and willingness to help an Arctic Spa owner fall back in love with her hot tub 💕
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're thrilled to hear that John was able to help you troubleshoot your Summit Spa Boy system and guide you toward a solution that works for your sensitive skin. It's a great reminder of how powerful and effective the Spa Boy and ozone system can be when properly understood. Your story is exactly why we’re so passionate about educating and supporting spa owners—whether they live nearby or across the country. We're so glad you're now able to enjoy your spa to its full potential again. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to John. Happy Tubbing!

If our family could give this incredible team 10 stars we would! Our first visit to Arctic Spa in Victoria, we met Jenny, extremely knowledgeable, so helpful, able to answer all our questions and really just the nicest person! Delivery & set up - another great experience. Paul and his incredible crew arrived - all hands on deck given the size of this spa - each member knew what to do - they made sure everything was perfect. Arctic Spa technician Duncan then provided us with a valuable tutorial session - ensuring we knew how to use our spa properly and maintain it.
Seriously, EVERYONE knows their stuff. Thank you so much Paul, Jenny, Eric, Duncan and Charles! We LOVE our Arctic Spa & will always recommend this GREAT company to our friends, family and to you too!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to our whole team.
We’re so happy to hear that your experience was positive from start to finish. Jenny will be thrilled to hear your kind words. She genuinely loves helping customers find the right spa and making the process easy and enjoyable. We’re also glad the delivery and setup of your Tundra and Covana went smoothly. Paul, Charles, Eric, and the crew work hard to make every install seamless, especially on larger deliveries like yours.
Duncan will appreciate the shoutout as well. We know how important it is to feel confident using and caring for your spa, so we’re happy the Spa School was helpful.
Most of all, thank you for trusting us with such an exciting addition to your home. Hearing that you love your Arctic Spa and would recommend us to your friends and family is the highest compliment we could receive.
Enjoy your new spa and many relaxing years ahead from all of us here at Arctic Spas!

Very good experience with Sabrina setting me up with some treatment products for my other brand hot tub. She took care to educate me on what I did, and as importantly, did not need, and how to monitor my water properly. Grateful to have a trustworthy resource close by. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind review. We’re very glad to hear Sabrina was able to help you find the right treatment products and provide clear guidance on managing your water. Taking the time to explain what customers truly need, and just as importantly what they do not need, is something we value greatly.
We appreciate you trusting us to support your hot tub care, even for a different brand, and we’re always here if you have questions down the road. Thanks again for sharing your experience!

First time trying to clean a pool, I had many questions and was very confused.
Devin, was the pool specialist I talked to. He was extremely helpful! Answered all my questions, pointed me in the right direction. Plus! I have to say as a woman asking questions about something I genuinely knew nothing about, I didn’t feel talked down too, no mansplaining and I wasn’t hit on; I just received help. Seems silly I’m sure to a male person, but this often is the case, and here it was not. Also I needed a pump fixed and they had it done within 24hrs and it’s working perfectly.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that Devin was able to guide you through your first time cleaning a pool with clarity and respect. We take pride in making sure every customer feels comfortable and supported, and it means a lot to know we delivered on that.
We’re also glad we could get your pump fixed quickly and have everything running smoothly. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Devin!

Goran arrived on time and worked cheerfully and efficiently. Turns out our pump was broken and he had one in his van so was able to replace it and get it operational same day. Very nice man…thanks Goran, and thanks Aquafun!
Response from the owner:Thank you Sue. We appreciate you taking the time to post your feedback online. We will be sure to share your comments with our team. Glad we were able to get you a new pump installed so you can enjoy your tub again. Happy Tubbing!

We are very happy with our Arctic Spa. Caroline has provided exceptional customer service following our purchase. I recently called for assistance and after calling her extension at the business number she let me know she was in the UK. Even though it was after 8pm UK time, she still logged in to her laptop to check the statistics of our tub and provided advice over the phone. Always happy to provide help, no matter what! Thanks to the team for the help so far.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the post Claire. Caroline regularly goes above and beyond to help our customers, so we are grateful she is one of you team leaders and that she was able to help you out. We will be sure to share your comments with her and the rest of our team. Happy Tubbing!

Very knowledgeable and polite. Caroline answered all our questions clearly and without any sales pressure. We thought the spas were out of our price range but she showed us the Be Well spas and we couldn't be happier with our purchase. We enjoy it every chance we get.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post s review on Google. Super that Caroline was able to guide you to the perfect spa for your needs and budget, she really is a Smartfriend. Happy Tubbing!

Having owned a swimspa at three different locations in Western Canada and now looking to be on Vancouver Island, I connected with Sabrina at Arctic Spa in Parksville. She is informative and smart on the features and advantages of Arctic Spas swimspas, including the whys and knowledge of salt water pools and hot tubs over chlorine as well as knowledge and thoughts of the area regulations on installations. Having attended 3 other Arctic Spa locations in Western Canada, she is by far the most informative. Want to know about the whys on why salt water pools are better for around Vancouver Island - connect with her and Parksville Arctic Spa first!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad Sabrina was able to provide the detailed info you were looking for and that she stood out among other locations you’ve visited. We appreciate you connecting with us here in Parksville and are always happy to help as you plan for your next swim spa!

Fantastic service today by Eric (Artic Spas, Duncan/Victoria). He replaced a failed heater under warranty and then did a full overview of everything with me (including some good maintenance tips) to ensure all was working well. Thanks!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad to hear Eric was able to take care of the heater replacement and provide a helpful walkthrough. We appreciate your feedback. Happy Tubbing!

We just had our hot tub delivered and set up by Paul, and he was fantastic. He had to work extra hard as his colleague was sick, but he still made it happen. Originally, we were going to reschedule, but since I already had the electrical and water delivery booked, Paul came out on his own. I gave him a hand, and together we were able to get the tub into place.
Paul clearly enjoys his job, and it shows. He was patient with all my questions and concerns. One piece was missing from the delivery, so Paul went back to Duncan to pick it up and, even though he was on his way to drop off more hot tubs, he returned the same day to bring it to us.
Later that same day, while I was at work, technician Goran stopped by and walked my wife through the programming and features of the hot tub. I didn’t meet Goran personally, but my wife said he was great.
A big shoutout as well to Sabrina, Caroline, and Jenny, Marc for helping us answer our questions and choose the right Arctic Spa — the Cub. Overall, an amazing team and a great experience!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear about your experience and truly appreciate your flexibility and teamwork on delivery day.
Paul will be especially grateful for the shoutout. He takes a lot of pride in his work, and it’s great to hear that his dedication, patience, and follow-through made such a positive impression—especially going the extra mile to ensure everything was completed the same day. We’ll also be sure to pass along your kind words to Goran for taking the time to walk your wife through the programming and features, as well as to Sabrina, Caroline, Jenny, Marc, and Duncan for helping guide you to the perfect spa choice.
We’re so happy you’re enjoying your Arctic Spa Cub and that the entire team could make the experience a great one from start to finish. Welcome to the Arctic Spas family, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need anything!

We have had our Arcti Spa Summit Series for 6 years and just had our first service call. The Duncan office recommended Aquafun Pools and Spa and yesterday Eric came and did a complete service and inspection. His communication was excellent and I would not hesitate to recommmend Eric at Aquafun to service any and all your needs.
Mark
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review! We’re glad to hear your Summit has been serving you well over the years, and we’re thrilled that Eric provided the level of service and communication you expect.
We truly appreciate the recommendation and if you ever need anything in the future, we’re always here to help.

4 Hot tub showrooms on Vancouver Island:
We have four showrooms spread across Vancouver Island to serve you best. This includes spas that you can actually “Wet Test!” This means you can bring your swim trunks and try it out!
While we can demonstrate some things on our website with pictures and video, it is sometimes hard to express the clean smell of a saltwater spa…or feel the satin smooth texture of our latest acrylic called Polar White…or experience the soothing waters of a saltwater system. How about experiencing swimming into the powerful jets of a swim spa…or simply, getting a FREE deep massage from an Arctic Spas SDS seat?
These can only be experienced in person!
We have four locations evenly spread from Victoria on the South island to Campbell River up North so that you can experience one near you!
What we have available at each location varies. Please contact us first to arrange a time and allow us to check the status of what we have available to test at either location!
Tap the Phone number below, or on John’s image holding the cell phone to go to our Contacts Page and fill out a short form. There, you can select your desired location. We can sometimes meet after hours with a pre-arranged appointment! Just ask!
