Eco Friendly Hot Tubs Showcase: Jacuzzi

Being environmentally conscious is becoming an increasingly important businesses decision for many companies. As such, the hot tub industry has made many changes in recent years to adapt to the new environmentally friendly way that people shop these days.

Jacuzzi, for example has incorporated a number of ways in which their products meet and even exceed the expectations of consumers with regard to energy and water conservation.
By now all Jacuzzi hot tubs either meet or exceed the energy efficiency standards set forth by the California Energy Commission. Let's take a look at how they accomplished this.

1. The Proendure cover. This is the hot tub cover that is offered by Jacuzzi that features material that lasts twice as long as vinyl, and an inner core with a 2 pound foam density, as well as a heat seal gasket. All of which work to minimizing heat and moisture loss, and thereby reducing the cost of operation. 
2. The Smartseal Insulation is an ingenious (but optional) insulation system for hot tubs that are used in cold weather. The insulation achieves up to 25% energy usage reduction by protecting

   against moisture and mold, as well as reducing operation noise. It is also made from environmentally friendly recycled materials.
3. Full-foam insulation fills the compartments between the shell, or the actual part where you sit in, and the skirt, or the bottom of the hot tub. It fills this compartment and maintains water temperature for longer periods of time, and thus reducing operation cost.
4. Heaters on Jacuzzis showcase a titanium heating element and housing, both of which help to conserve energy very well.
5. Hot tub covers are constructed with high density foam, and are covered by weather resistant materials which insulate the tub, and retain the water temperature.
6. Lights use LED technology to produce more efficient and longer lasting lighting than incandescent bulbs.

This is a pretty impressive list of items, but digging deeper, we see that data from the Smartseal insulation system shows us that the models that utilize this insulation system the cost of use goes down by an average of about $3 per month - just as a result of having the blanket installed.
