The Spa and Sauna Co. recently went through a rebrand, creating a new logo, that enhances and solidifies our mission, vision and values, while also embracing our past, and allowing us to move forward.  

We’ve developed a new logo, that includes our new tag line, Enhance Your Space.  

Our new logo maintains important features from previous logos and will unify the company image across all our current and future locations. Don’t think of this as a re-brand, think of this as an Enhancement!

Our Values are:  

To operate with integrity, effectiveness and competency to ensure an enhanced customer experience. 

How Will The Spa and Sauna Co. Do This?

The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the importance of having a space to be comfortable in. It has also given us as a company an opportunity to demonstrate we are a step above the rest when it comes to cultivating that space. We enhance the homes, style, and life of our customers by offering them the best service and selection of products to make their space one they look forward to spending time in.

We will Enhance Your Ownership Experience, by providing the best sales, customer service, service and learning opportunities available for the home leisure equipment products we sell, including Hot Tubs, Swim Spas, Saunas, BBQs, and more.  

A Bit of History

The Spa and Sauna Company has roots going back to 1990 when Company Owner Scott Clark opened his first store, South Bay Spa and Sauna in San Jose. CA. After marrying Shelley Ingram-Clark in 2000, the company moved to Reno. NV in 2002 as The Spa and Sauna Shop.  

But the hot tub story for the Ingram-Clark family goes back even further, to 1976, when Shelley’s father David Ingram, started building what has become one of the Leading Brands of Portable Spas manufactured today – Caldera Spas. 

Fast track to 2013 and a second Reno store opened, Reno Hot Spring Spas and Billiards. In 2015, a third Reno store was added – The Spa and Sauna Co. or The Spa and Billiards Shop. In 2017, that original store location became a warehouse and The Spa and Sauna Shop moved to Sparks. In 2019, 2 stores in San Jose and Santa Cruz were acquired, Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose. Those stores had a history in the community that dates back to 1976, even using the name Pacific Water Works for a time, before becoming Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose.  In 2020, a store that had been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic was relocated and allowed us to double the size of our Reno flagship location at 9748 S. Virginia St. In Reno. In 2021, The Spa and Sauna Co. – Carson City opened.  

You can check out all the information about all of our stores hereAnd if you’re interested in the complete history of The Spa and Sauna Co. and all hot tubs, check out our blog here 

Now with six stores in two states, and a variety of hot tub and swim spa brands to choose from, it became clear it was time to unify our branding and our message at all of our current, and all of our potential future, locations. Moving forward all of our locations will be The Spa and Sauna Co.  

Enhance Your Home, Enhance Your Experience, Enhance Your Wellness, Enhance Your Community

We’ve already created optimal ownership experiences, but we want to Enhance them even more.  

Here are some highlights from the favorite things we have done to build The Spa and Sauna Co. Brand thus far: 

Enhance Your Home – We sell only the best in Hot Tubs, Swim Spas, Saunas, BBQs and Pool Table/Gameroom Equipment. We have hundreds of happy customers.

Enhance Your Experience – We’ve won dozens of awards over the years for our Sales Volume, Customer Service, Customer Satisfaction, Marketing, Wellness and more! Check out all the details here To do this, over time we have cultivated the best team of sales, service, marketing and administrative professionals you could ask for and we encourage them to enhance their learning to give you the best ownership experience day after day, year after year. As we grow, you grow with us!  

We have an Online Store for all of your after-purchase Hot Tub, Swim Spa, Sauna and BBQ care purchases. We believe your shopping experience after your primary purchase should be just as good as what happens in the showroom. Shop here   

We’ve created blog resources and learning center resources, and a YouTube channel to provide all the searchable written and video resources you may ever want. Check out our YouTube channel here. 

We also have ownership resources and more!  

Enhance Your Wellness and Your Life – We’ve enhanced the wellness of our customers, by encouraging our customers to use their hot tubs every day. We even have a form they can fill out online to win prizes if they complete our 30 Soaks in 30 Days Challenge. Our customers use their hot tubs daily and tell us it makes their lives better! They have told us using a hot tub every day has meant they have time to:  

  • Reconnect with their families 
  • Reduce stress
  • Rediscover hobbies that became painful over time 
  • Rehabilitate achy muscles 
  • Sleep better 
  • Reduce visits to chiropractors and massage therapists

Learn more about our Wellness Challenge, or complete it online, here   

Enhance Your Community – We’ve given back to our community, whether it’s by participating, or lending a truck, to local parades, sponsoring duck races to support the Humane Society or even serving as a drop off location for Toys for Tots, or supporting local athletes.  

We also support local veterans, and since 2018 have donated 3 hot tubs to deserving local veterans in Reno and Sparks, in conjunction with a spa manufacturer and the charity Wish for Our Heroes. We are currently searching for our next recipients. Read more and even nominate a deserving veteran, or yourself, hereOur first recipient once told us this program seemed too good to be true, but it isn’t. We love giving back to our community and supporting our local community.  

We recently checked in with our first 2 Hot Tub for Heroes recipients, Daniel Rogers of Reno and Kevin Vogt of Sparks. They were awarded hot tubs in 2018 and 2019.  

Both said they are still enjoying their hot tubs after all these years, and enjoy working with a company that gives back to its community.  

Speaking of the donation process, Kevin said “The process from start to finish was super easy. I mean, you guys set everything up. You came, you did all of it. Any questions I had, there’s always been someone there to answer it for me. New hot tub owner, myself, there’s a lot I didn’t know and every time I ran into something I couldn’t really troubleshoot myself, I’d call you guys and I’d get an answer immediately.”  

The Spa and Sauna Company looks forward to making many more donations to local veterans.  

Through these efforts, we’ve built long-term lasting relationships with people in our local communities, and we appreciate every single one of them.  

Moving Forward

The Spa and Sauna Co. is more than the brands we sell, and even the products we sell. The Spa and Sauna Company is part of your lives – your enhanced lives, if you will. We can’t wait to help you Enhance Your Space, Enhance Your Home and Enhance Your Life. We’ve been proud to be a part of your lives since 1990 and are looking forward to a great future together!

Best of 2019

Thursday, December 19th, 2019

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

This year has been a year of new beginning for The Spa and Sauna Company – new showrooms, showroom relocations, new showroom events and community donations! Here are some highlights from 2019.

Best of 2019 Images - Hot Tub Dealer Reno, Sparks, San Jose, Santa Cruz

1. We’ve Grown – The Spa and Sauna Co. now has locations in Nevada and California

Our biggest news of the year happened in the very beginning of 2019. In January 2019, The Spa and Sauna Company purchased Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and Hot Spring Spas of San Jose.

“We are so glad to bring Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose into The Spa and Sauna Co. family,” said company owner Scott Clark. “When I first started selling hot tubs, over 30 years ago, I was working in the Greater Bay Area and we started our business in San Jose, in 1990, so this has really come full circle.”

A year later, some things have changed, like our street address of our San Jose store, but our commitment to bringing you the best hot tub and swim spa brands and giving you the best hot tub ownership experience remains the same.

2. Hot Tubs, Swim Spas, Sauna Dealer San Jose Celebrates New Location Grand Opening

In July 2019, Hot Spring Spas of San Jose moved to their new location, at 2627 S. Bascom Ave.

After decades of being at their previous address, the move has allowed for a more convenient location in town, at the Corner of Bascom and Union, and more space. 6500 square feet of it.

Displayed in our new space, are hot tubs, swim spas, and the new addition of Big Green Egg Barbecues. You can also find any water care you may need for your hot tub or swim spa needs.

Check out some photos from our new showroom, and get all of the other details about how to visit us, here.

3. Ask the Hot Tub Experts

This year, The Spa and Sauna Company had its first showroom events for existing customers. We hosted Ask the Hot Tub Experts Events in our showrooms in Reno and San Jose.

Ask the Experts Events featured individualized instruction on draining and cleaning hot tubs, time for individual questions, and special one-day only sales on water care items!

Stay tuned for future events.

4. Sparks Veteran Awarded FREE Hot Tub

The Spa and Sauna Co., spa manufacturer Sundance Spas, and the charity Wish for Our Heroes teamed up in March 2019 to award a local veteran, Kevin Vogt of Sparks, a free Sundance spa as a small thank you for his military service.

He is the second local veteran to have received a free hot tub in less than 1 year from the 3 organizations. The Spa and Sauna Company is always pleased to be able to share the therapeutic value of hot tubs with the community and is especially happy to have the opportunity to give back to their local community.

Small Business Saturday is a “nationwide movement to celebrate small businesses every day and to help communities thrive and stay vibrant,” according to American Express, which founded the movement in 2010.

The Spa and Sauna Company has been based in the Reno/Sparks community since 1990, and earlier this year, we added to The Spa and Sauna Company family of stores, with Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose. They have been a part of their respective communities since 1976!

The Spa and Sauna Company, which specializes in selling the best in Hot Tubs, Swim Spas, Saunas and Barbecues, is a family-owned business that employs more than 40 people in Reno, Sparks, Santa Cruz and San Jose.

For Small Business Saturday, we are celebrating at all of our locations, with our Relaxing Holiday Sale, so you can avoid the holiday shopping hustle and invest in a hot tub, swim spa, sauna or BBQ, to improve the health and wellness of your entire family.

How We Give Back to Our Communities

In California, we contribute to Omega Nu, a Santa Cruz based volunteer group/charity, that helps the local community. You are likely to see our truck  escorting Quacky the Duck in December at the Santa Cruz Holiday Parade. We also participate in the Santa Cruz Duck Derby.

Also, we are a Toys for Tots drop off location at our Santa Cruz showroom. Toys for Tots is a program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve which distributes toys to children in need.

We Offer Advanced Water Testing

Thursday, October 31st, 2019

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

Do you have questions about the quality of the water inside your hot tub? Have you noticed a change to how the water feels, but you aren’t sure why? Would you like to stop guessing on how to maintain the best quality hot tub water?

We’re here to help with Advanced Water Testing at all 5 of our locations, using BioGuard ALEX Pro testing units. And the best part is, it’s a free service!

At The Spa and Sauna Company’s family of stores in Nevada and California, we are happy to be your hot tub experts, long beyond your hot tub purchase. We are also here to help you with hot tub water care and maintenance.

Advanced Water Testing is always free from The Spa and Sauna Company/Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose.

What is Advanced Water Testing?

We use BioGuard/SpaGuard’s ALEX Pro system. BioGuard is the pioneer of computerized water testing, with nearly instant results. In fact, the name ALEX stands for Analysis Experts, according to BioGuard/SpaGuard.

ALEX tests more water quality factors than standard water testing strips and can analyze how different results are related, giving you the information you need to best care for your hot tub.

How do I get my hot tub water tested?

All you need to do is bring a sample of your water, in a clean container or the provided sample bottle, into any of our showrooms. We encourage you to bring it to us as soon as you can, after taking the sample from your spa. And the water should still be between 80 and 104 degrees, just like it would be in your hot tub.

No appointment is needed.

One of our hot tub water care experts will take a small amount of your sample and put it into a disc, where our ALEX Pro system, can analyze your water.

In about a minute, the device will analyze and interpret the condition of your water and provide a comprehensive report, with suggestions on how to improve your hot tub water.

The hot tub expert who analyzed your water will discuss with you, in detail, what the reading means. And which of the suggestions will provide the most relief to your particular water issue. They will also direct you to any recommended products.

This system will store the results of the reading in our database. This will allow you, and us, to monitor any changes in your water quality over time, as you continue to use your hot tub, and bring future samples in for readings. This is a great resource for long time hot tubbers.

How often should I test my hot tub water?

We recommend you use test strips weekly at home to get a quick overview of your water quality, and make any adjustments, if needed.

You are welcome to bring your water in, at any time, for a comprehensive water testing analysis from us, either for a check-in or if you are experiencing a water issue.

SpaGuard recommends you bring your hot tub water in monthly, during the months you use your hot tub most frequently.

We also recommend you bring your water in for testing, if you have not used your hot tub for a long period of time, and are ready to begin using it again.

We look forward to seeing you in any of our showrooms to test your water and make sure you are having the most enjoyable hot tub ownership experience possible.
