Pumps
are the important aspect of hot tubs. In general, pumps power up the
jets by pulling water to mix it with air and then push through the jets.
Most hot tubs available today come with a combination of hot tub pumps –
one for powering the jets and another for water circulation through the
filtration system and water heating. Usually, larger hot tubs may
include additional jet pumps to power multiple jets.
When
looking to invest in a hot tub, you should give more priority to spa
pumps. They play a key role in overall hot tub experience. Therefore,
you should take a look at the following factors to make the right
selection:
Jet Power –
The
power of heat pump is measured in horsepower. It controls the pressure
of water that comes out from the jets. The more jets you have the more
horsepower is needed to power them. If you’ve a hot tub with more than
one jet pump, a diverter can help you control the jet power to specific
seating for an amazing hot tub experience.
Apart
from the jet power, configuration and placement of jet are important
factors that make a great difference to your overall experience.
Speed –
Earlier
hot tub pumps are available with one or two speed depending on the
level of jet power in a hot tub. These hot tubs combine jet power and
circulation through a single two speed pump. This pump offers you a
chance to set a low speed level to circulate water through the
filtration system when not used.
But the latest hot tub technology introduces variable speed pump, allowing you control the speed of spa pumps. Generally, they’re quieter, produce less heat and vibration than their counterparts like one and two speed heat pumps.
