A swim spa quotation only works when the buyer and the factory are reading the same numbers. For our long configurable model, sold under the paired listing Outdoor Swim Spa WS-S08T1 / WS-S08T2, most disputes in project procurement start with a specification line that nobody confirmed: total power, jet count, shell length or which options were included in the price. This guide walks through the specification sheet item by item, so buyers, contractors and interior fit-out teams can send an enquiry that comes back with a comparable, complete offer.

Start with the model designation, not just the size

This listing covers two configurations in one product record: WS-S08T1 and WS-S08T2. When you request a quotation, name the exact model code and ask the supplier to confirm which configuration that code refers to in their current production range. A shell length of 7800 mm sits at the long end of our swimming pools and swim spas range, so it usually means a dedicated swimming lane plus a separate hydrotherapy zone. Record the overall length, width and water depth as three separate figures on your specification sheet, together with the site where the unit will sit — terrace, wooden deck, sunken pit or plinth.

Write down the access route as well. A 7.8-metre shell has to reach the pour or the finished deck, and crane access, stair width and turning radius change the delivery method and therefore the price. Send a site photo and a dimensioned plan with your enquiry instead of waiting for the freight question to appear after the order is placed.

Confirm the mechanical package line by line

The catalog specification for this model lists the following equipment. Treat these as the baseline you are quoting against, and ask for written confirmation of what applies to your configuration:

• Control system: 1 set
• Swim training system: 1 set
• Water pump: 2 pcs
• Filter pump: 1 pc
• Jet total: 50 pcs
• LED lights: 4 pcs; small LED lights: 28 pcs
• Total power: 9.55 kW
• Features shown on the product page: water jets, LED lighting, ozone, swim training system

Two of these lines cause the most rework. Jet count is a total, so ask how the jets are distributed between the swim channel and the seating area, because a hydrotherapy buyer and a lap-swimming buyer want different layouts. Total power is quoted as 9.55 kW for the listed configuration; your electrical engineer needs that figure plus the supply requirement — single-phase or three-phase, breaker rating and cable size — before the trenching is done.

Separate included equipment from optional accessories

The catalog lists control systems, UV sterilization, water pumps, heat pumps, sand filtration, insulation and steps as options for this range. Availability and compatibility vary by model, so a line that is standard on one configuration can be an add-on on another. On your specification sheet, put every option in one of three columns: included in the base price, quoted as an add-on, or excluded and supplied locally.

Heat pump and insulation deserve their own attention if the spa will run year-round, because they drive running cost more than any other item on the list. Sand filtration and UV sterilization change the maintenance routine for whoever looks after the unit after handover, so involve the facilities team before you lock the option list. If your project needs a different footprint altogether, our Customizable Shape Outdoor Spa covers square, round, oval and curved layouts on an acrylic shell with structural reinforcement.

Match the specification to how the spa will actually be used

Before you finalise the sheet, decide what the unit has to do. A hotel or resort guest facility usually needs higher jet counts and seating comfort; a private villa with daily lap training puts more weight on the swim training system and the length of the channel. If fitness is the priority and hydrotherapy seating matters less, compare this model against a Long Outdoor Swim Spa with Hydrotherapy & Relaxation Pool. If the brief is massage, lighting and water features rather than distance, look at a Luxury Outdoor Swim Spa with Massage Jets, LED & Water Features before you commit to the 7.8-metre shell.

A pre-order checklist for the buyer

Where the specification fits in a wider project package

Swim spas rarely arrive alone on a villa or resort package. When the same supplier also handles outdoor furniture for villas and resorts, pergolas, loungers and poolside dining, one purchase order can cover the shell, the deck furniture and the surrounding finishes, which reduces the number of hands touching the delivery. Our turnkey workflow runs through consultation, design and planning, production, logistics, installation and after-sales, so a confirmed specification sheet becomes the document that all six stages are measured against.

Figures above follow the catalog entry for this model listing. Equipment included, electrical supply requirements and optional accessories vary by configuration and are confirmed in writing at quotation stage.
