Repairs and Remodelling

Ever aware of the need to effectively repair and remodel spa facilities, Design for Leisure can offer many solutions using the cutting edge products and technology being used to create the latest and greatest new spas around the globe.

We can cure leaking steam rooms, showers and pools often with the simple application of our waterproof lining systems manufactured by our partners Lux Elements. This can often be done using existing structures as long as they are still sound and overlaying existing tiled finishes, even if they are leaking or porous, because we fit a completely new waterproof skin to the structure, which is left ready to receive a new decorative tile or stone finish. We can dress to existing drains and in most cases, even doors can be preserved as long as they are not leaking as well.

Caring for the environment should be the responsibility of everyone, but saving energy has bi-products to the bottom line as well.

Intelligent Spas are the future, microprocessors can control every aspect of the modern thermal suite and the costs of technology are becoming ever more affordable and the benefits of investment easier to see and faster to harvest. Some of the ways a spa can benefit are outlined below:
  • Serviceable Steam Generators – all parts are serviceable or replaceable, no built in obsolescence of a cheap machine accepting it will have a life of only a few years, but buying equipment for the life of the spa is the way forward.
  • Serviceable equipment removes the disappointment of guests faced with ‘Out of Order’ signs, as routine, preventative maintenance ensures equipment runs and runs – even in hard water areas, calcification of steam equipment can be avoided, ensuring the equipment runs efficiently and cost effectively, where it just boils water, not heats rocks!
  • Control systems that are constantly monitoring temperature and adjusting equipment output accordingly are vital, especially for spas with peaks and troughs in usage patterns.
  • Control systems with remote displays or full integration into Building Management Systems are vital to energy efficiency.
  • Ice fountains that produce ice on demand, rather than just topping up a bowl, and letting it melt away throughout quiet periods not only save energy, but prolong the active life of the equipment.
  • Automatic essence dosing systems controlled by steam generators that only operate when steam is being produced, ensuring the perfect atmosphere for bathers, but saving on waste.
  • Sauna stoves and steam generators that have power factor adjustments ensuring they can be customised to the exact size of the cabin in which they are sited.
  • Construction systems with known and provable U/R values to ensure the heat stays in the cabin where it belongs and not heating up the rest of the building
  • Sauna conversions to fit underbench heaters to reduce damage by guests who have a heavy hand with the sauna bucket, not to mention being careless with towels on exposed stoves, or the benefits of maximising bather space, saving on real estate at the same time as enhancing the guest experience.
  • Our solutions can often be specified remotely and equipment and installation instructions supplied for fitting by local tradesmen or facilities departments
IT IS TIME TO CHANGE YOUR WAY OF THINKING, STOP REPLACING OLD WITH NEW AND START THINKING OF HOW YOU CAN MAKE IT BETTER, BETTER FOR THE GUEST, BETTER FOR YOUR BUSINESS AND BETTER FOR THE PLANET
