The reps of ThermoSpas showed up on time. Did the interview and discussed everything with me. It was great. I felt very good and satisfied. The quality of the product is great, too.

My spa is of great quality. It has lots of jets and colors. Also, it doesn't have the spray foam insulation. It also has bromine drop-ins instead of chlorine tablets. The LED light that transitions to various colors is a high-quality light compared to the other hot tub I had before. My only problem was when I was attempting to reach a repairman. We overfilled the spa when we first got it and it was leaking from places. Nobody could tell me, “Hey, it's too full. You did this wrong.” There wasn't a lot of information regarding filling it and getting a hold of somebody to correct any deficiencies. Also, nobody helped me set it up and that's flawed. Other than that, I recommend ThermoSpas. Research the warranty and do your research to look at the longevity of what you get.

We go into our Concord hot tub at least four days a week. I'm using the two sections where there are jets in the back and mainly for my lower legs and feet. I also like the different lights that it swirls through to light up the hot tub itself. Everything's good, and at this point, ThermoSpas has shown to be worth the expense.

A guy came to give us a presentation and explain about the product and the warranty. Out of everything that we saw, the Concord version was the one that gave us what we needed. It was a little bit more than I was expecting to pay but it is as good as they said it would be. So far, very good. We love it.

I ordered my hot tub in January of 2021, and it was ready in around July. Due to COVID construction delays, it took until February of 2022 to get the pad installed. Despite the salesperson (Carol **) assuring me I could store it in the warehouse for free until my hot tub pad was ready, I got a lot of pressure from the company to get my hot tub delivered or pay holding fees because Thermospas oversold units. I've now had the hot tub installed and working for about 9 months, and hoo boy has it had issues. Every design decision is mind-bogglingly bad, and nothing seems consumer-centric; Thermospas designs their products to be as cheap to build as possible, with no care given to consumer comfort, easy maintenance, or durability.
First of all, accessing the interior requires using an electric screwdriver to unscrew and rescrew 15 different screws every time you want to view inside (why not just use a latch?). The inside is plywood paneled, and because it's very hot and moist, it's a great breeding ground for bacteria, algae, and fungus - which quickly turn the entire interior into a slimy mess. There are also enough gaps in the construction that bugs can get in super easily - every foam insulation panel now hosts its own thriving ant colony (9 months into owning the hot tub).
Second of all, the gravity draining system doesn't actually drain the whole tub. There are tons of bevels in the vinyl, so there are 5-6 pools in random spots you need to bilge every time you drain the tub. Third, the jet quality for all but the biggest jets is extremely poor. In the first day, half the plastic caps for the small jets broke off, and my guests and I found them floating throughout the tub. Their pressure is also super low, to the point that they might not exist at all.
Finally, the company's phone lines might as well not exist. Once they've sold you the product, they've profited enough on you, and can't be bothered to provide any kind of services. They'd rather take their $20k and walk than try to satisfy customers enough that they'd want to buy another tub in 10-20 years. Classic unregulated economics. This company ain't it, folks.
Hello Derek,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us this feedback as it is valuable to our process for making improvements. We apologize for any miscommunication from our Design Consultant regarding storage and warehousing fees. Due to limited warehousing space, we are unable to store merchandise in our warehouses for extended periods of time.We appreciate the insight you’ve provided on removing panels, we have found that our current method is the best approach in making sure panels are secured. While a level of moisture under the spa is normal, and mostly regulated from the hot air the pumps generate and blow, you can occasionally remove panels to allow the moisture to escape.
Regarding your jets, they are engineered to be able to be easily removed and replaced to allow for best cleaning. If screwing them securely back in place did not take care of the jets that came out, you can also email support@thermospas.com and a case will be created for you so that an In-House technician can reach out within 48hrs to discuss this issue or any questions about draining/pressure.

The Concord's supposed to be a high quality unit, but we're very unhappy. It leaked from day one, and it's taken weeks in between each visit, because they had to get parts. One time, ThermoSpas sent a guy out and he fixed it, but when I filled it up with water, it was leaking from a different spot. We've had the Concord a month, and we haven't been able to use it. The reps were responsive, but we're done with this, and we're sending it back. They're supposed to come pick it up.

The installers did a good job, and the hot tub is nice. It works well. I’m just hoping to connect with ThermoSpas tomorrow to set up an appointment regarding an issue. I put a call in for service because there's some water leaking from the bottom. I got return call and the message was open it up and see if I can do it myself. They said to take the panel off, twist something, and see if that stops it. I was like, "Why don't you guys get down here and do it yourself since I just bought it." Other than that, the sales guy did a great job. The one thing that doesn't make sense is the pillows that have water coming out of them, and they can get rid of that. I don't think we'll ever use them. The sales guy doesn't even use them.

ThermoSpas was the best unit on the market. Unfortunately, that translated it to being the most expensive one on the market. But I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for. And my sister always said, “If you buy something that's quality, you only wince once.” The salesperson that came out to our house was very knowledgeable. And he was upfront about, “Yeah, these are expensive, but these are really good. You're gonna like it.”
I have called Tony, the guy who did the installation, and said, “Hey, I've got a question about this. I got a question about that.” And his customer service isn't the best. When he was at my house, he was nice and helpful. And the two guys that he had with him were friendly. But I’ve called Tony twice where he said, “I'm right in the middle of something. I'll call you back.” But he never called me back. And I have a serious couple of questions about how to maintain my tub and what I'm supposed to do to keep it clean and keep the pH correct. I would be more than willing to pay him to come out and go over everything again because I don't want to screw up my tub. But I can't seem to get ahold of him.
If I say I'm gonna call somebody back, come hell or high water, I call that person back. I've had my spa installed for a month now. And I want to make sure that I am operating it and keeping it as clean as possible. If my $15,000 hot tub craps out in five years, I won't be happy. I expect this unit to last me. And I would love Tony to give me a call and say, “Hey. Yeah. Not next week, but the week after or whatever, I'm going to be in your area. Can I stop by and chat with you and your wife and see what questions you have?” Because I've gotten no follow up from him. Other than that, I like everything about the hot tub.

ThermoSpas had everything that I wanted. Where the jets were set up, because theirs was different than everybody else's. It’s all individualized. And that’s what sold me. It’s its own thing. I sat in every seat already, and each one is different. And it does different things. I like it. The sales rep and installers were both great. Those guys told me everything I was looking for, that I looked up. And those guys came in perfectly, and put it all in there, and got it all set right. So, when the electrician came to hook it all up, it was perfect. I've gotten in it twice since it’s been installed. My daughter uses it more than I do. I travel a lot for work. And that’s one reason why I wanted those, so now I can relax a bit more.

I bought this hot tub during the pandemic, and it was delivered in January 2021. It is now September of 2022, and the keyboard has completed malfunctioned! Called the company repeatedly about this problem for over a month and still haven't received the new keyboard. On top of that, I have to pay for the labor to fix it! It is a year and a half old. I bought this thinking it was top quality and had a great warranty. What a scam! Also, the cover is ripping all over. Terrible customer service. Can't get any help with this situation. I definitely have buyer's remorse

The ThermoSpas sales guy, Peter, came out. He was very good at explaining the product and sold me on it. I liked the quality of it. I wanted the high-quality one that was efficient and not using a bunch of energy, and one that would hold up and not have problems. It had a lot of jets. Also, I like the way it was built. Just the way it was built was different than the regular foam interior type of spa. So, the efficiency of it. The fact that it’s a 20-year spa instead of a 10-year spa. And I like the idea of designing it for yourself, however you kind of customize it. That was cool. The lady who’s doing the drawing was taking her time. And we needed the drawing before the contractor. And we have the electrical all hooked up, but we’re waiting to do the trenching to get the electrical and the plumbing for the shower connected all at one time. That’s the hold up. But I met with her yesterday. So now, I just got to get the contractor ready to go.

I ordered the ThermoSpas hot tub in January. It showed up in the warehouse earlier than they had said it would and would have been delivered in May, but I had HOA issues. It was delivered two weeks ago. It was easy and wonderful. I expected it to be in pieces and they were gonna assemble it. They pulled out all these parts from underneath their trailer and it was fascinating. I was in awe. I live in a townhouse so they had to go around a couple of other houses and it was not a flat terrain. Plus, it started to rain. But they were very professional and good-natured about everything. I was very pleased. I'm a fan of the tub. I use every three days, and I'm already feeling differences in my muscles and pains that I have.

I’m writing this as a new owner of a Manhattan II hot tub from ThermoSpas (TS). It was delivered in late March and has never worked in the nearly two months I’ve had the unit. This post describes my experience with ThermoSpas sales staff and customer service. I learned early in the process of buying a new hot tub that the industry is very opaque. Pricing information is extremely hard to come by until you’re sitting in front of a salesperson or listening to their pitch via Zoom. After a month or more of searching and reading reviews, I settled on ThermoSpas as their Park Avenue model received consistently high marks in online reviews.
I scheduled a consultation with a salesman named Peter and, in hindsight, was the first red flag I should have seen. Despite saying I was interested in the Park Avenue model, he alerted me to the fact the Manhattan II model was basically the same price but bigger and with more whistles. His pitch worked and in short order he helped me design my new Manhattan II. At the end of the process, the price of the tub took advantage of what the salesman called “glitches” so he could only hold the price for a week and if the glitches were fixed he couldn’t access that pricing anymore. Despite the obvious sales tactics, I signed on the dotted line with an expected wait of 20 weeks for my new tub and 50% down.
Fast forward about 20 weeks and my tub was ready as scheduled. Success! I was alerted that my unit was undergoing inspection at their warehouse and would be sent to me when their delivery service could schedule it. It took about 3 weeks to arrive. When it did, I should have seen another red flag – a three man crew with a flat bed trailer arrived with my new tub and another 2-year old ThermoSpas hot tub that was being replaced. Two-year old hot tubs shouldn’t be replaced right? The crew situated my tub on the concrete pad I had laid for the tub. Missing from my delivery were the stairs I ordered with the tub for $200. The crew said that most of the tubs they were delivering were missing stairs. I had to email the salesman who forwarded my issue to customer service and a woman named Jessica. She said there were manufacturing issues with the stairs and they had to switch manufacturers as a result.
I could wait 12+ weeks for the stairs I had already paid for or get a refund and find a replacement. I chose to find my own set. ThermoSpas knew this was an issue so why I had to track downstairs that were never going to arrive is a mystery. Just give me my money back earlier so I have stairs already ordered before my tub arrives! It took numerous emails to get the money as Jessica was suddenly unable to receive external emails from me. Thankfully Amazon had a suitable set of stairs for $300.
Two days after delivery, the electrics were hooked up and I filled the tub and started getting the chemicals in line. Two days later, I was confident the chemicals were good and my wife hopped into what she thought was a 103 degree tub. Well, the screen said it was 103 – turns out it was actually 84! Over the next day I tried everything I could to reset the unit but the temperature differential got worse. I finally called ThermoSpas customer service when the unit displayed a temp of 117 with a warning that the heat safety had been triggered. The actual tub temp was 76 degrees.
Upon contacting customer service, it was immediately obvious I was speaking to someone who didn’t actually work on hot tubs. This person definitely had a binder in front of him with common problems and simple fixes. My issues didn’t fall within this domain so after about 5 minutes he said he was creating a work ticket and I would be contacted by a technician within 48 hours. I hadn’t heard back in 2 days so called the store tasked with fixing my tub. This is the biggest red flag for ThermoSpas for me – it contracts out service of their tubs so when they send you a technician it’s just a hot tub store in a local community.
Unfortunately for me I live somewhat rurally so All Spas in Beaverton, OR only sends technicians to my area every 2-3 weeks. My problem wasn’t even going to be diagnosed for nearly a month! I was fortunate that there was a cancellation so a technician came out 2 weeks later. After about 10 minutes he said it needed parts and someone would be back to install once ThermoSpas had sent the parts. All Spas then cancelled my next appointment and made me reschedule to have the parts installed. That date is June 1, 5 weeks after my last technician visit! During his visit, the technician made a comment to me that new models (the Manhattan II is a new model) tend to have production/engineering issues and that my problems are likely due to that. If only I had ordered that darn Park Avenue…
Once I realized I would be sitting on a broken tub for two months, I sent a tersely worded email to my customer service contact Jessica explaining why I felt so unsatisfied as a customer and what a low opinion I had of ThermoSpas. She immediately responded that my issue had been escalated and someone would contact me by the end of the week, which was my deadline for action. I got a call late afternoon on that Monday but couldn’t talk as I was ferrying around my family to after school activities. I was left a message that said: “Hi Matt, Mike with ThermoSpas, service director here. My number is …” The next day I texted and left a voicemail and the following day he called me back. I explained my story and why I was so dissatisfied. I asked what he could do for me.
He suggested he could do something like send me a chemical kit that “retails for $200” and I said that was the exact sort of thing I was hoping they “could do for me.” He also agreed they could extend my warranty if necessary. He explained he wasn’t in the office but he would call me back later from the office to discuss specifics. He never called back and my text messages last week went unanswered. It’s now been 2 weeks since my tersely worded email…
So, here I am delivering on what I said I would do – tell prospective customers of ThermoSpas why they should steer clear of this company and choose another hot tub. One of ThermoSpas big selling points is their service and industry-leading warranty. Their parts are supposedly readily available so you can fix your tub when you need to. Well, if my experience dealing with their customer service is anything to go by, good luck getting service, warranty or parts help when you need it! I wish I had chosen a different tub and a different manufacturer. I wish that ThermoSpas actually delivered on what all their marketing materials state – that they are an industry-leading hot tub company with exceptional service and products. My personal experience with them unfortunately proves the exact opposite. Ultimately, I simply wish that I owned a working and reliable hot tub.
We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with this valuable feedback. Our Sales Technicians strive to find the hot tub that best fits your needs and desires; our Manhattan II is one of our flagship hot tubs and a customer favorite, which is likely why Peter thought it was a good fit. We are sorry to hear you’re currently dissatisfied and hope we can improve this experience for you moving forward.
Regarding Service; our Service Department is equipped with a knowledgeable staff of in-house technicians that are available over the phone to assist you with any questions you may have, from start-up, balancing chemicals, winterizing your hot tub and more. Our in-house technicians can also assist you with ordering parts and scheduling an on-site visit if necessary with a full-time approved factory technician local to you and as part of the Jacuzzi Group Worldwide family, we have greater access to parts and local technicians for when you need them. We’re sorry to hear there was an issue upon start up and see that one of our local service technicians is scheduled to assist you on 6/1 to resolve any outstanding issues you may be having.
As for your steps, thank you for your patience regarding the delay. As Jessica mentioned, we had sent an email to all impacted customers letting them know we had encountered manufacturing issues due to the ongoing global parts shortages and we are currently sending steps directly to customers as they become in stock or offering a refund on the cost paid for the steps if desired.
Again, we appreciate your feedback as it is valuable to our process in making improvements to ensure we provide customers with an excellent experience.

ThermoSpas was what I wanted for health reasons. It has nice features and their guy was very helpful. He was very informative. I asked him what I needed to do or why I have to do it, and who I should get to do it. He showed me what it was like to have the biggest hot tub and what it was like to have the next one down version and the one that was at the bottom.

Purchased in 2017 and was sold on the purchase (nearly $14,000.00) when the salesperson kept reiterating their "10-year warranty" that covered everything. It was a lie. I see now (after reading reviews here) that others were told the same thing. When it was delivered, it was literally DROPPED 4' onto our patio from the back of a pick-up truck! There were three or four guys in a pickup that made the delivery! Not even a professional delivery crew! Yes, our complaints started immediately. Immediately upon set-up, there was a leak. We had a repair person come FOUR times to make repairs (leaks) in the first year. The last time the repair person came, they GLUED some of the jets (to stop the leak!), and they are now in a permanent position and cannot be adjusted!
It's been leaking again since May 2020 (can NEVER get anyone on the phone--don't be fooled by the phone numbers they post--you'll NEVER get a live person on the phone--I called six times in one day and stayed on the phone 20+ minutes each time listening to music and never talked to anyone before finally hanging up). Maybe it was due to COVID--don't care about their excuse for same. Could never reach anyone. I finally looked up old emails from 2018 when the other repairs were done and sent emails about the leak. Received "undeliverable" responses to some of the addresses, but I must have made it through to someone.
Today I received a call from a BLOCKED NUMBER and was told there was no warranty past the first year except for the hull, and definitely no labor was covered after the first year. Parts could be purchased, I was told, at a discount though (50% in year four). I was told a CERTIFIED REPAIR TECHNICIAN had to be called by ME to come and look at it (and I had to pay them)--and when that technician determined what parts were necessary, I had to order them (not the technician!). What if the technician gave me the wrong part number???
I asked this person to send me the technician's information in an email. I received an email WITH NO CONTACT INFORMATION FROM THE SENDER (and from a "no reply" email address) with a technician who is IN ANOTHER STATE--4.5 HOURS AWAY FROM ME (ONE WAY!). So apparently I have to pay for a technician to travel nine hours (round trip) PLUS the time they spend on site JUST TO DETERMINE WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. THEN, I have to order the parts. THEN, I have to pay the technician to come back (yes, another 9-hour round trip--NOT COUNTING THE REPAIR TIME) to fix it! I think not!
I do NOT recommend anyone ever purchase anything from this company. Their service is TERRIBLE. You will regret it at some point...I guarantee it. SHOP LOCAL--Find someone near you who sells the product you want, who's been in business for a while, and who can send someone to do repairs. THERMOSPAS IS A JOKE. I regret this purchase, and lesson learned!

The salesman I worked with was very knowledgeable and helped me build the perfect spa. Delivery was scheduled for between 5/26/2012 - 6/26/2021. Spa finally came on July 27 2021. Delivery team was awful, would not drill a small hole in bottom of spa for electrical conduit pipe. I asked three times told had to have electrician drill the hole. Mind you the hole was drilled into a previous hole done at the factory that was filled with foam. They left spa (which weights 500 lbs) sitting on a paver block. They didn't install the cover life mechanism properly. Next day Electrician comes drills hole and now him and I haven't figure out how to move the 500 lb spa (pick it up) about a foot to place over the electric pipe. Needless to say no easy feat.
Next get it all wired and inspected and fill. Turn on and only half the spa works. Call again for technical service. Again on hold for at least 15 minutes, hung up on twice, so three more calls before I get to speak to anyone. They schedule their technician to come out to check the spa, Of course this takes approximately 10 days to accomplish. Well jets were clogged with glue from the factory, two jets broken, one pump does not work properly, shoulder massage jets need plyers to turn on and off, and water diverter is not working properly. Tech leaves and said will order parts and call next day to let me know when to expect fix. Five days later I have heard nothing. I'm told I can use the spa but only one side works. This is suppose to be a five person spa not a one person spa. And for this they expect me to pay full price for something that does not work, and I can't get fixed.
The final push over my edge is when I finally get to talk to a service technician, who informed me the guy who came out didn't know the spa and if I would go out to the spa he could get me to fix it over the phone. I'm sorry but I don't work for your company. I told them to come get the spa but he (Nike) said I could not return as it only had minor problems. I don't need this kind of stress in my life. I bought this spa to relax in but that is sure not the case. I would highly suggest that you stay away from this company and spend your money elsewhere.
We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with this feedback. It is our policy that delivery teams do not drill holes into the Hot Tubs so that the electrician can drill a hole with the correct placement in coordination with electrical installation. Regarding your Hot Tub being placed on pavers, it seems this placement was possibly done to assist your electrician by providing extra room, however we do see on the delivery report that you had signed off approving the final placement of your Hot Tub. Our records show that our Service Department has been working with you regarding any outstanding issues you may be having at this time, and they have reached out to the local technician to schedule your service appointment, you will be hearing from someone soon. If you should have further questions, please contact our Service Department directly by emailing support@thermospas.com or calling 1-800-833-7727.

Salesman came and sold me the spa...3 months later when came time for delivery there was little notice and damaged upon arrival..Customer service never returned a phone call ..The sales person talked a lot but did nothing..They have in my opinion little respect or customer service...They refunded my full cost but I suspect they sold the damaged hot tub to someone else for maybe more money than what I paid...I went to a local spa dealer, bought a bigger and better spa and had delivery within 10 days ...Stay far away from this company. You will never be happy with the customer service and they are overpriced as I saved 1500 at the local dealer..
We sincerely apologize for this experience. Occasionally, during delivery some of the panels may become scratched or cracked; we understand this is highly unfavorable but fortunately, is a cosmetic issue that can be resolved quickly by our Service Department. Our records show we were able to discuss this information with you, but you ultimately decided to not move forward with delivery. Regarding delivery timeframes, we do update customers about delivery dates by sending notifications with estimated delivery timeframes, updates when Hot Tubs ship and having the local installer call to schedule the final delivery date with the customer, however we appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback for us to review our process.

I reached out to schedule consult for purchasing hot tub just a few weeks ago. I received several reminder calls for the appt which I intended to keep not thinking anything of it. The tech then didn't show at the time of my appt. I'm not sure if people typically schedule a consult appt without planning to actually be there, but that is not the case. I then called to see what happened and the scheduling department receptionist was pretty "snippy" with me and not professional. Not a good way to start a relationship for an investment that will cost thousands.
We are sincerely sorry for this experience as it is not our typical process. We appreciate you providing this feedback and will be relaying this information to our management staff.

Parts are "cover for certain time" that is what they say, but not service which it exceeds the price for the parts. When I called to book a service "awful". Very expensive hot tub not to be cover completely for few years. I bought a tv which had warranty just like the one Thermospas say they "offer" and the tv people came and fix it at no charge at all. That's the type of business people should get. Again thermospas are very expensive- I would expect when it says warranty for certain time that I would not have to worry due to the incredible high price that I already paid for it. If something becomes defective it means it is not so good made/expensive hot tub and started to break in such short time!! When called to book a service the service man gave me the price for the service and he finally wanted to ship the part so I can fix myself!! Because the price for the service was so much!!
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. As explained in your Warranty, there is a cost for service after the first year, further information regarding your Warranty can be found on our website.

We actually loved our ThermoSpas Aquacisor Hot Tub but the manifold started leaking after two years. Warranty is only good for parts after one year and it’s been next to impossible to find a repairman to come out. It’s very frustrating to spend $16,000 on a “top of the line” hot tub only to have the manifold leaking. We found another review with the same problem so obviously there’s an issue with ThermoSpas. Once it’s repaired we’ll probably have the same issue in two years again.
We apologize for the inconvenience, currently, with the high demand in the Hot Tub industry, there are delays with the availability of technicians, we are working on scheduling customers as timely as possible.

Updated review: April 30, 2021
Checking my credit card bill online today, it shows a refund issued as of April 14, although this predates the date of my review and of the company's response. So somehow they were able to issue a credit card refund after all and even backdate it. Grateful for the outcome, in any case.
Original Review: April 22, 2021
We met with a sales rep in September of 2020, who assured us that, despite the many trees in our yard, a crane operator could maneuver the spa into our backyard. We were told that delivery would be in the spring because of the large back-up of orders, which was fine with us. Spring came, and we were notified the crane operator needed us to take down a large trunk of a double-trunk oak tree. These types of trees can only be trimmed during the cold weather, after the first frost, not in the spring, because of danger of bug infestation and disease. Taking down that half of the trunk would also leave the tree unstable.
We had to cancel the order. We spoke with Jim, who told us he was issuing the credit for the $2,700 deposit that day. After 10 days with no refund issued to our credit card, I called and he said they had gotten a new credit company within the last six weeks that did not have the capability to issue refunds to credit cards. They would be sending us a check in the next three to four weeks, and to call him again if it didn't show up. This is a terrible way to do business all the way around.
We sincerely apologize for this experience. Regarding returning your deposit, we can confirm that the information provided to you from our Director Jim is accurate. We are sorry for the delay and inconvenience. If you should have any questions, please contact him directly or call us at 1-800-876-0158.

Ordered the tub on 9/22/2020 with agreed to delivery for 12/23/2020. At delivery, the spa cover lift mechanism along with the steps did not arrive but the service technicians said they would follow up of these items. We built temporary steps since we wanted to use the tub. For the next few weeks we noticed a few items, as in one pump, were not working and had set up a service call. The service team arrived and addressed the tub issues along with installing the spa cover lift mechanism. But there were no steps with the service call. Today, March 14, 2021 we still have no steps. ThermoSpas has a premium price but sub par customer service. We are not impressed with their tub quality nor their follow-up. For the price we would not recommend ThermoSpas.
We apologize for any inconvenience. Due to Covid-19, some parts are on backorder as factories continue to abide by safety protocols, including social distancing, causing our facilities and our manufacturers facilities to have to function at a lower capacity in order for staff to remain safe during production and because of this, some parts are delayed. Our records show that you have since cancelled your step order, again we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. If you should have any questions regarding this cancellation, please call our Service Department directly at 1-800-833-7727.
