I really miss my hot tub I left at the last house , looking at a small unit ( space issue) and it’s 10k and involves a crane - add 2,000 some electrical at $600 , tax it and it’s a 15k problem. Man did that jump in price .

Friends have one and like it. It's a glorified tea kettle with a pump but the water volume is much less than a fibreglass tub.
I am slightly surprised that there isn't a luxury inflatable option available. For CC's use case, he needs to get it through the house to avoid crane charges but he could probably get decent power to the location and doesn't mind paying for more than the costco special. A larger inflatable tub with a proper heater could be a good fit for him.

I should look more into it then. I wouldn’t mind one for our house as I have the space…and the power in the shed is 120V already so it could be a perfect option for this winter.

Officially, many of the inflatable tubs say they aren't for use in the winter. That being said, some people use them year round. Especially if you can shield it from wind and/or add some insulation (which isn't a bad idea anyway to save money). Throw together an insulated wooden box around the hot tub and heat loss would be greatly reduced.
I understand the vinyl inflatables don’t like -10 outdoor temps . They can split so I’m told . Getting 220 power is the easy part . It may be just me but I don’t want a compromise, I’ve had the deluxe nice glass tub , I would like that experience again. I just don’t wanna pay for it ….

Looking to get some thoughts here from the smart people...
Back of the house bottom 3ft were originally planned for stucco, as opposed to the thin brick as the front. Now we're considering going to thin brick all the way around.
I already have the fiberglass lathe (?) as opposed to the metal for the bricks as the plan was for stucco.
Any experience with utilizing fiberglass over metal lathe in this type of application? It seems 'fine' on the surface (pun intended) but I wanted to double check prior to committing.

I tend to go with what the manufacturer recommends. Deviate and have zero warranty if that matters . They engineer stuff to work , if your following thier process .

Not exactly sure what you're asking. What is on the lower 3' now - has it been glassed and scratchcoated yet? If so, you should be able to add the z-brick. If it's still concrete go straight to the z-brick.
