HOW DOES IT WORK ?

Heat Pumps how it works diagram

 An Air Source Heat Pump operates similarly to a fridge but in reverse, utilizing refrigerant gas to function. It extracts from the external environment as well as from the heat generated during the gas compression.

 

This heat is then circulated through a heat exchanger to warm up the hot tub. The heat pump draws air over a radiator filled with refrigerant gas, causing the gas to heat and evaporate. Once the gas is compressed, its temperature rises significantly it moves into a heat exchanger, where it transfers heat to your hot tub. Finally, the gas cools down, and the cycle begins again.

HOT TUB INSULATION UPGRADES

Improving insulation is the most cost-effective method to boost your hot tub's energy performance.

Numerous hot tubs, especially those manufactured in China, often feature little to no insulation. In contrast, higher-quality tubs such as Marquis, Jacuzzi, etc, typically come with insulation already installed, so this worth noting.

 

We provide a range of insulation options for your hot tub at various price levels to enhance its efficiency.

INSULATING HOT TUB COVERS

Your hot tub cover is often the main culprit for heat loss.

If it's not working effectively, you might even see steam rising out of the tub on a cold day!

 

We highly recommend investing in a new cover, especially if your tub is a few years old. A good quality cover can typically last 3-5 years with proper care.

 

Our supplied covers come with the following features:

  •  5-3" inch or 6-4" inch tapered foam

  • High-density foam

  • Continuous heat seal 

  • Thick vapor barrier

  • Free measurement, delivery, and installation (disposal charged at extra cost)

Another way to control heat loss through the lid , and at the same time protect the cover from chemical damage,  is a bubble cover or blanket 

A small cost that prevents a large proportion of evaporation, we stock these in our hot tub shop!
