Hot Tubs Sale
– What are the Best
Options?
Searching for a hot tub to
buy might leave one in the
blue, confused what the final
step should be in choosing a
hot tub for their needs.
Things that should highly
influence a hot tub purchase
are your location, and what
you can really afford, not
only up front but as well as
installation
costs
and
monthly electric bills are
concerned as well.
Depending on what voltage your spa choice is, if you live in
North America you might need to have a higher voltage circuit
installed, which requires you to hire an electrician to come to
your house and do so. The normal North American household
outlet is 110 volts and around 15 amps, basically enough to
supply power to most of our electronics and small motor
appliances.
However for large components you need more voltage. A 220
volt hot tubs doesn’t necessarily use more energy, it will just
cool down twice as fast, making a larger voltage hot tub useful
for colder locations where the spa will have to keep up with
freezing temperatures.
110 volt spas offer you the mobility
of being able to plug into any normal
outlet and the initial savings on
installation costs, while they might
not be quite as applicable in colder
climates.
Whatever your voltage choice is,
saving electricity is doubly as
important and better design features
should be heavily considered. As of
2009 the main source of electricity in
America was still coal production
and electricity was the largest
source of CO2 releases.
In the 1960’s CO2 levels in our atmosphere reached an all time
high, and still haven’t stopped rising. CO2 being a green house
gas, there are major concerns about global warming and other
environmental feats we will be facing. So not only will a more
efficient spa save you money on your electric bill, you will also
be lowering the amount of pollution that occurs, without any
major power or feature sacrifices.
One of the easiest ways to find a more efficient hot tub is too
make sure it meets CEC (California Energy Commission)
standards, or it has CA Title 20. These spas often have better
overall designs and also hybrid components patented to help
conserve energy.
For a spa to have CA Title 20 it must pass the rigorous stipulations put
in place by the CEC. Some spas you can check out are Jacuzzi,
Dream Maker, Arctic Spas and Beachcomber. Other things to be on
the lookout for are; separate pumps for cleaning cycles, six inches of
foam insulation inside the hot tub cabinet, the highest R rating cover,
the most advanced applied computer controls and Venturi air injectors
as opposed to electrically operated air pumps. If a hot tub has all of
these things, you have the potential to save up to 40% of what would
have otherwise been wasted.
