I was motivated to write a positive review about my experience with Creative Energy (CE) after…read morepurchasing a Hot Springs hot tub and a Lopi fireplace insert. Looking back on the entire process, I found the level of service and value added by their entire team to be truly impressive. Cole and Will in sales were both great to work with. They were knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely focused on helping me find the right products. Behind them is an equally impressive team: Doris and Cara handled sales coordination, invoicing, billing, and scheduling with precision and professionalism, while Alex and Omar did a fantastic job with site surveys, delivery, installation, and service. Every step of the process was handled smoothly and confidently. I felt listened to, respected, and treated fairly. What really sets Creative Energy apart is their culture. Despite having multiple stores across the bay area, they operate with the feel of a family business. Not only did they take great care of me, but they also went out of their way to help other members of my family. This left me feeling special and a part of Creative Energy "family." My first impression was that their policies and procedures were a bit strict but after going through multiple transactions, it became clear that their structure and organization allow them to deliver such a consistently high level of service and execution. Another big plus was how well their multiple locations work together. If one store doesn't have what you need, they seamlessly work with other locations to get it for you. I also have found their staff to be knowledgeable and happy to answer questions and follow-up on after the sale issues. They also have a very handy text service that lets you communicate with text messages or voicemail. Finally, after doing my research and going through several purchases with them, I found their pricing to be very fair considering the level of service and value provided. If you are in the market for a high-quality hot tub or fireplace insert, I highly recommend that you consider Creative Energy. It is not only the great products they sell but also but the quality of what you find "under the hood" with their sales and service teams.

We recently bought a new Caldera spa from this company and had a fantastic experience throughout…read morethe entire process. The showroom may not be the newest or flashiest, but that ended up being a benefit -- they have a wide variety of models available to see in person and can source nearly any option you might want. What impressed us most was the level of knowledge and attention we received. Jim and his team clearly understand these products extremely well and focused on helping us choose the best spa for our family instead of simply pushing a sale. Their pricing was very reasonable, but the biggest value came from the service and support they provide. Before delivery, Jim personally visited our home twice to review the setup area and ensure everything was prepared properly. He was also involved during delivery and installation, and everything went according to plan. They spent time walking us through the spa features and explaining maintenance as well, which was especially useful since owning a hot tub involves more upkeep than I had remembered. Our spa was only recently installed, so I can't comment on long-term service yet, but based on everything we've experienced so far, I'm confident they'll continue taking great care of their customers. I'm really glad we chose not to take the Costco route (and that's coming from someone who shops there often). Buying a spa turned out to be a more involved decision than I initially expected, and having experienced professionals helping along the way made the process much easier.

On Sunday, I decided to open up our hot tub's pump cover to see if I could find out why it all of a…read moresudden began losing water (about half an inch a day)! Definitely not evaporation. And sure enough, I found two places with a leak in this decade old tub. I contacted New Products, where we originally purchased the tub, and got a phone call early this morning from the owner, Jim. Turns out the service guy, James, was going to be in our area today. James came by a couple of hours later, confirmed the leak, had the replacement parts in his van, and fixed it! He also gave me an updated lesson on how often I should be changing the water, the filter, adding chemicals, checking the pH, etc. Not only was the repair price very reasonable, but I feel like I just got a degree in hot tub school, and promise to do better keeping to the maintenance schedule going forward. It's great to be able to go back to the store a decade later and find they still offer wonderful service!
