Here they share a Trusted Regina tip on Alleviating pain through Hydro-Massage: 

Spas and hot tubs treat many health problems through a combination of heat and hydrotherapy massage. Whether you suffer from arthritis, sore muscles and joints, or sports-related injuries, they all respond to the soothing warm water and hydrotherapy massage of a hot tub. 

Immersing your body in the warm water of a hot tub – heated to a comfortable 37˚ C to 40˚ C (98˚ F to 104˚ F) – can also alleviate mental stress and strain by calming you down and forcing your mind, as well as your body, to relax.

Work-related discomfort such as a backache, stiff neck or sore feet can also be alleviated by taking a leisurely soak in a hot tub when you get home from work. A good soak in a hot tub is also a great way to recuperate after a long, frustrating commute home. 

If you have troubles sleeping, a soak in a hot tub just before bedtime also acts as an effective, natural sedative that will allow you to enjoy a full night’s rest. In fact, if you suffer from osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia or rheumatoid arthritis – the three most common types of arthritis – a brief soak in a hot tub will help you get through the day virtually pain-free by improving flexibility, strength and co-ordination. Moving joints, ligaments and muscles is made easier, allowing you to perform your daily tasks with ease. 

Because soaking in a hot tub temporarily reduces body weight by 90 per cent, it also reduces the strain on your body (slowing down pulse rate, dilating your blood vessels and lowering your blood pressure) making it easier for your heart to pump blood throughout your body. More information on the therapeutic benefit of hot tub soaking is available online at www.poolcouncil.ca

Here they share a Trusted Regina tip on Trust:

I’ve always known it. I’m constantly reminded of it. People will NOT do business with you if they don’t TRUST you. This weekend I was reminded of how powerful this truth really is.

A vendor in our industry blew into town again, with another BLOWOUT super special. This same vendor blows in once or twice a year, advertises like mad, and misleads a lot of folk as to their “offer”. It’s a marketing practice fairly common in our industry, and I’ve always disliked the way consumers are confused about who, and from where, is selling what.

This time around, I have to conclude the consumer has gotten the knack of it. Our showroom was full all weekend, and most everyone had been to the “BIG SHOW.” Judging from the fact we pretty much sold out our entire inventory, I wonder if they’ll be back. They spent a lot of money advertising, and it sure worked for us. Because, People will not do business with you if they don’t TRUST you.

We Feel TRUSTED.

Here they share their first Trusted Regina tip on Hot Tubbin' in the cold!!

It's that time of year again to remind hot tub owners of some simple ways to protect your hot tub from freezing. These measures, taken individually or together, will give you more comfort and security that you are protecting your investment in relaxation.

Spa Monitor:

We have several inexpensive monitoring systems that allow you to view the temperature of your water temperature or equipment enclosure temperature ffrom the comfort of inside your home while you're sipping your morming coffee! Simple to install and operate. Prices range $59-$79. GFCI

Breaker Alarm:

These alarms give an audible and visual alarm if your ground fault breaker should ever trip. For use only with most Spa breaker panels. Easy to install. Price $129

Space Heater:

Place a small space heater with a thermostat inside your equipment enclosure, set it on low and should your spa ever stop heating and there is still electricity to your home, you will be protected. Make sure it is on a ground fault circuit for safety. Price $25.00

Insulated Spa Blankets:

Simply cut to size for your spa and place directly on the water under your hard cover. This also minimizes evaporation and moisture from reaching the underside of your hard cover which will extend the life of your hard cover. Price $49-$119

From the moment that we met Duane Hunt the owner of Halcyon Spas we instinctively knew he was right for Trusted.

Lets share a few of those comments with you, as we believe there is nothing more powerful than the word of customers who have had an actual real life experience with the businesses we are endorsing and promoting!

Even though we live well out of Regina, Doug was amazing, returning several times and making sure that the problems were fixed. It's not often, anymore, that such amazing service is offered, and it was excellent. I have recommended Halcyon to many friends because of the great staff. Thank you." Michelle Amy

Fireplace Tips from Wheatland Fireplace

Thinking about fireplaces? Here are some specifics you might want to think about — or, better yet, talk to your spouse about — while you’re in the planning stage.

•Decide if you want the fireplace for heat, for looks or for a combo of both. Knowing what you’re going to want the fireplace for helps speed you through talks with the sales person.

•There are fireplaces to heat one room only and there are fireplaces with heat distribution systems. Enjoy localized heat or circulate warm air to other parts of your home using our “Heat Wave” air distribution system.

•For heating efficiency, consider a thermostatically-controlled, self-modulated fireplace. Those are big words that mean the fireplace will be automatically programmed to regulate temperature.

•Ask about trim options (the casing set around your fireplace). There are lots of colours and styles and you’re sure to find one to match your décor. If this is a tough choice for you, consider consulting an interior designer. The sales people have brochures that you can take with you.

•Visit Wheatland Fireplaces showroom so you can see the fireplaces when they are lit and when they are turned off. The fireplace won’t be running 24/7, so you want to be sure you like the look of it with flames or without.

•Think about how you want to turn your fireplace on and off. Do you have room and the right space for a wall switch/thermostat? Or are you more of the remote control type? Old school? Then you’ll want a manually switch right on the fireplace, right?

•Wheatland Fireplace sells and installs fireplaces. That’s important. How the fireplace is installed impacts operation efficiency and durability.

For more than 25 years Wheatland Fireplace has installed high-end, high quality products in the homes of people like you with an eye for beauty and quality. Their products include fireplaces, bbq, kitchens and smokers with locations in Regina & Saskatoon....

Trusted had heard great things about Wheatland Fireplace from many people in Regina and Saskatoon, so when we went into the Regina showroom, where the Head Office is located to have a little look around, and  we were thrilled to be so warmly welcomed by the super sales staff, just like people told us we would be! The showroom is AMAZING and you cannot fail to be impressed by the range of Fireplaces, stoves, hot tubs and all accented by stunning wall art and home decor items!! WHO KNEW!!

Trusted  set up a meeting with Chuck the owner to discuss Trusted. Chuck is instantly likeable and afer spending 45 mins with him, it is was obvious that he sets the tone of the company and leads by example, he is forward thinking and absolutely ' GETS' what Trusted stands for! Chuck loved the idea and signed up on the spot for Saskatoon and Regina!

The Trusted verification process was started in both markets - when we have Partners that are in multi markets or multi locations we ask for 25 clients names and numbers for each location- to ensure standards are excellent everywhere ( not just where the boss has his office!)... The comments we got back from clients were fantastic, their clients really are  FANS of Wheatland Fireplace and they had great things to say about the staff, the after service and the products themselves! 

"I am really happy with my experience at Wheatland Fireplace, and have already recommended them to friends! I initially chose them after going to several of their competitors looking for a fireplace, but i was left feeling underwhelmed with the lack of attention or service, I felt the showroom staff seemed to dismiss me. The way Wheatland Fireplace dealt with me was really great from the moment I stepped through the door...I chose a fireplace and they installed it ..a little while after I had an issue with the wind howling down the chimney really loud, and when I spoke to Wheatland about it they sent someone straight over to rectify it for me..no questions asked! I have just purchased a BBQ from them and plan to buy a Hot Tub from them next year too ..they have been great. I have to give them a 9.5 or 10 out of 10 ..as I have absolutely nothing negative to say about them! " Richard Fulham, Dilke, SK.
