The AR-500 Premium by AquaRest Spas is a 5-person hot tub including a full-length lounger, patented LED backlit waterfall with 9 color settings, and 4 deep cup holders. Lay back in the body-conforming full-length lounger or captain's seats and enjoy the therapeutic benefits of the 29 two-tone stainless steel, multi-level jets powered by the 2hp/2speed upgraded Jacuzzi pump.
Relax knowing that the AR-500 includes an ASTM-certified locking safety cover and full foam insulation, making it extremely energy efficient, and allowing it to meet the strict standards of the California Energy Commission (CEC). Keeping your spa clean is made easy with the patented Easy Kleen 100% water filtration and factory-installed AquaPure Ozone purifier, which can help reduce the use of harsh chemicals by up to 75%, saving you time and money!
The AR-500 Premium AquaRest Spas is a 120v plug-n-play, roomy 5-person hot tub with a patented LED waterfall with 9 different color settings, 4 deep cup holders, digital controls, factory factory-installed AquaPure Ozone water purification system, and an upgraded stainless steel heater.
The AR-500 Premium comes with a 120v 15-amp GFCI cord to just "Plug-n-Play", but you can also wire the premium version 240v, with the help of a certified electrician. Going 240v does increase the power of the heater, possibly resulting in even lower electric usage.

Received this tub nearly 2 weeks ago, and have used it every day since.
The photo on Wayfair makes the spa look almost hunter-green, but I can attest "graystone" is the correct name for the color. It looks like... well... gray stone.
I highly recommend getting the Spa Choice bromine starter kit to go with it, and have an electrician upgrade to the 240 volt 50 amp connection. The heater works much quicker, and we think that will help it retain its heat in the winter (it's only june right now).
Before filling we looked, and the insullation sprayed into the resin shell looks sufficient, had read reviews of similar products being delivered without enough insulation in the shell.
When we filled the tub initially, there was one connection near the pump that was a little loose and dripping water, but tightening that connection did the trick.
The jets are excellent. The controls are intuitive. The seats are comfortable. We love the texture of the interior... it's not slick like fiberglass tubs, and we appreciate that actually. The LED waterfall feature is the ONLY LED on this tub, so if you were hoping for more LEDs, this doesn't have that.
It's just me and my husband using it so far, but we're really glad we didn't go for a smaller tub.. Jacqueline. Portland, OR. 2021-06-28 16:38:09
