I'm not in San Francisco; I am in Redlands, CA [don't know how to change it here]. I want to commend Eloy for being such a professional - and concerned human being when I called in July 2019, so very 'desperate' to stop one of my diverter valves from "blowing water like Ole' Faithful", which began with no apparent reason in our fairly new above the ground spa. He said he was booked until Sept. but spent time talking with me as I explained all the reading & watching video research I had done - to no avail, and he gave me some suggestions to try. I called the Manufacturer who sent a new diverter valve assembly to me. We could not even circulate the water, but had to have the main power off. Then Aug 19 he called that he could come the next day. I was so excited. He came, and the valve blew with his hand on it 3 times, which made me feel a little better that it DID IT--while he was here. He went straight to work, analyzing what was causing the issue and came up with the solution, which meant removing the foam innards, saw-cutting a wood plank and a lot of grunt work, while I was snapping photos of fascination with his work. HE FIXED IT and we are finally able to enjoy our spa. And, another 'best part' is: he actually called us 8 days LATER to make sure everything was OK. How about THAT for customer service! I will not lose his PHONE NUMBER, that's for sure. Thank you, Eloy, for your wonderful repair service - I just wish you were 'twins' to take care of more customers all around the Inland Empire. read more

I experienced a significant pump leak in my older spa and decided to research three local companies for repairs. After contacting A-1, repair technician Tino reached out to me. I explained that our spa was custom-built into the hillside of our home, making repairs our only option. Tino asked me to send him pictures of the spa and to take photos of the area where the leak originated. I sent him the images, and he informed me upfront that the spa was manufactured in 1989 and that he would search for the necessary parts for the repair. On Friday, Tino called to let me know he would be available on Saturdays between 8:00 and 9:30 a.m. He arrived at my home on Saturday at 9:00 a.m. After diagnosing the issue, he began the repairs. We were uncertain whether all the seals and parts would resolve the problem, but he proceeded with the service. Once completed and after refilling the spa, it worked perfectly. We are incredibly pleased with the professionalism, communication, and promptness of Tino and A-1 Spa. I highly recommend A-1 for professional spa repairs if you live in the Inland Empire.

After spending more than I wanted to on just a service call from a local pool supplier to diagnose my control unit for my hot tub I was then given an estimate of over $1200.00 to replace the whole unit. I was also told that the units were proprietary which is why it was so expensive. Couldn't be further from the truth. I called A1 Spa Control and asked if the control unit I found on their website was compatible and was quickly asked why I wanted a whole control unit and not just the board. After discussing and going over the installation process I ended up ordering just the board. It was delivered across the US to my door in two days. I installed the board in under an hour and the hot tub was up and running and cranking out the heat. Eloy went above and beyond in explaining in detail on the installation and saved me a boatload of money. Thank you so much! Jason C. read more

I'm BEYOND thankful I found this place!!! I live in WA and after finding out our hot tub needed a new circuit board (local repair estimates were $1200-1500), I decided to just buy the part and install on our own. When I called, Eloy made sure I was purchasing the right part by asking questions and allowing me to send him pictures via email. The part arrived in just a few days. Install was tricky but Eloy was so patient and spent a very long time on the phone with my husband, helping him with making sure the circuit board was properly installed. I don't know of any other business that with that kind of helpfulness. Thank you so much Eloy! Even though you're in CA and I'm in WA, we will be calling you FIRST! One happy customer, Jennifer read more

Eloy is 5* in my books. Eloy helped me diagnose hot tub heating problem. Once it was identified, the main control board was the problem, I proceeded to ship to A-1 Spa. Professional service and courteous at all times. Repair to board was complete within one day of recieving control board. Eloy phoned and let me know total cost which included return shipping. Transaction was smooth. Paid with paypal. Once we recieved board, we installed it and it worked flawlessly. I am so happy. :) I have no reservations on recommending A-1 spa for any work. I would definetly use them again. Thanks so much for taking the time to get to the root of the problem. Dan McMurdo (Vancouver, B.C. Canada) read more

I had attempted to somewhat self diagnose my spa problems with a multi meter and reading what I could find on the internet. Having tried a couple things and some different parts I had narrowed it down to possibly being a Control Board and in looking on the internet one day I came across the website for A1 Spa Control so I called looking to buy a Control Board. So rather than just sell me one it was suggested that actually probably wasn't the problem so I had them come out to look at it and it was fixed within 15 min at the cost of just a service call not hundreds of dollars in parts and needless to say I was happy and felt I was treated very honestly and would highly recomend them . read more

A few weeks back, Eloy responded to my house to fix my brand new spa. Eloy was on time and was very polite. Now I will be quite honest ...I know NOTHING about spa's or how they work. Eloy could have really taken advantage of my ignorance but instead he told me there was nothing wrong with my spa and took the time to show me how to operate it properly. In a world where rip off artists seem to roam free, it was refreshing to encounter an honest man like Eloy. I couldn't have been happier with A1 Spas service and will definitely use them again when the need should arise. I highly recommend A1 Spa ! read more

Since Yelp found it necessary to remove my review on A-1 Spa since he did not pay their ransom I will write another. Eloy has been working on my hot tub for about 2 years. Every time I call he is more than willing to help and I get the feeling if he could help me fix something over the phone he would for free. Each time he has worked on my tub he has been professional and quick. One time he even came out the same day of my call. Anyway, if you need service, I would HIGHLY recommend Eloy and A-1 Spa Control. Great guy and great service, you could not ask for anything better. read more

My husband and I had the best experience, thanks to Eloy, with A-1 Spa Control. We purchased a home in remote Idyllwild last year with a defective spa. Finding anyone willing to service a rural, mountainous area, even with a home warranty repair policy, wasn't easy. The initial 2 people not only failed to solve the problem(s), but caused additional damage and expense. We were afraid that our spa may have needed to be replaced, but thanks to Eloy's mechanical know-how, it's working like a charm -- and just in time for winter! read more

I highly recommend calling these guys before you try to doing it yourself or have a "friend" mess with your spa. I just moved into a house in Lake Elsinore that came with a Jacuzzi that the previous owner must of had a non professional mess with. I tried this, I tried that, Google this, youtube that, well you get the idea. Short story long, I called, and Eloy came out on Mothers Day weekend and got that baby going within a couple of hours!, I really appreciate that and the fact he charged a fair price. Thanks again Eloy read more

Our spa needed a new circuit board and a new heater. We live in northern Ca and our spa repair tech thought that this would be a very costly fix and we might consider a new spa. So we looked online and found this website. When my husband called, he spoke to Eloy, who was so helpful and guided us to order the correct parts. They arrived within a few days. Then when our tech was here and the replacement of circuit board hit a snag, Eloy again was very helpful. My spa is now again up and running. Thank you again. read more

I called to verify that I was buying the correct circuit board for my spa (identified as the issue by an electrician). Eloy said that a circuit board would typically not trip the breaker. He offered to come out, trouble shoot and fix the problem the following day. He identified the problem within 15 min, and fixed the spa ... all for less than the cost of the non-refundable circuit board I was ready to buy that would not have fixed the problem. A-1 is now my "go to" company for spa issues. Thank you Eloy!!!!! read more

Just bought a refurbished circuit board for my 15 year old spa. it arrived in just a day and was packed very well. The postal service managed to put a big hole in the box, but because the board was packed so well there was no damage to the board. I installed it this morning. It works perfectly. The spa is back to normal operation and all functions are great. I definitely recommend this company. I received a great value here. Very thankful for this business. read more

Eloy went above and beyond to get the programming right on a replacement board that had some special programming. It is and older spa and the board was obsolete. A-1 not only had an original board in stock but once I received the board Eloy stayed on the phone with me for over an hour working through the programming. I will definitely use A-1 for all of my spa equipment needs. Thanks, Jim O'Daniell read more

A-1 spa control has great customer service. It's nice to call a business and actually get a person on the phone. They were not able to fix my hot tub board. I couldn't find a board anywhere due to circuit board shortages.The staff at A-1 found a new replacement board within a week and had it shipped to my residence. definitely a stand up small business. read more

I recently had an amazing experience with Eloy and Dominic at A-1 Spa Control. They were highly recommended and lived up to the hype. When they rewired and fixed the leaks in my spa, they were so efficient, skillful, friendly and professional. They gave A+ service and I definitely recommend them to anyone with spa needs. 2 thumbs up!!! read more

I ordered a spa pack to replace mine and was promised that Aloy will guide me through the installation. Sure enough he was so helpful in guiding me and gave me the confidence to replace the whole power pack and I was able to save $800 on installation. Thank you A1 and big thank you to Aloy. I love you man. read more

Eloy at A1 Spa was great. We just had a new spa delivered and noticed the filtration pump was not running. We called Eloy and he answered the phone, tried to help us resolve the issue and came to our place and repaired the spa that day. What service! I would recommend A1 Spa Control for your spa needs. read more
