Hot Tubs - Jets & Pumps

Hot Tubs - Jets & Pumps
Does the number of Jets in a Hot Tub really matter or is it
a question of the motors and pumps that also have to be
considered.

It is highly amusing when you get some so called hot tub
specialists (usually the ones with sun glasses on) talking
about the number of jets in a Hot Tub with out having
even taken into account the strength of the pumps which are
going to power those very Jets..

So these many jets (not that many really) do not have
enough power to actually make these Jets perform properly,
So for performance in a Hot Tub it is just not a simple
question of the number of Jets but it does come down to
things like engineering and design and the combination of
the Jets with the correct motors and water pumps to produce
the better product.

More often than not these Hot Tubs with lower rated motors
have to have a diverter valve fitted so that other parts of
the spa can be turned off so as to get any decent power
where one is actually sitting.

I know a few UK dealers who sell spas like this which they
describe as unbranded models as the manufacturer has
deliberately produced a cut down model. That's fine as long
as they are priced accordingly and the consumer understands
that he is not buying the top of the range model nor indeed
a middle range model but a bottom of the range model.

Quite often many vendors (with or with out sunglasses) keep
stressing that their Hot Tubs have air when all they
really mean is the venturi effect of air being mixed with
the water Jets not in fact an independent air blower. Air
is great for blue or varicose veins. The basic idea of air
coming out of those pepper pot type jets in a Hot Tub
Jacuzzi is too provide air blower therapy which increases
the natural blood circulation to your skin and medical
Doctors that I have spoken to have confirmed this train of
thought. . Our skin represents by far the largest component
of our body which helps us to remove poisons and the like.

When our skin is invigorated, naturally our overall health
and feel good factor is increased and improved and this
goes a long way to help to remove toxins from our body and
this has a direct result on increasing our personal
vitality as both our mind & body receive the natural
rejuvenating treatment.

It is a well known medical fact that the lower legs, the
Tibia & Fibia areas, between the knee and the feet and
ankles are the longest distance from our hearts. That is
why if you break your leg below the knee the "lower third"
is the area which is the hardest to heal often needing bone
grafts to get the healing process on its way. I speak with
personal experience having spent more than a little time
with my leg in traction with a broken femur and the leg
below the knee in a plaster cast with a broken Tibia &
Fibia. This lack of circulation is also why the ankles can
get those blue looking spidery blood veins, and then of
course our legs often get varicose veins. Air Jets go a
long way to helping to reduce them.
