Floating Thermal Spa

Find Energy Savings in Your Hot Tub

Feel like saving some money? Feeling friendly to the environment? Here is something you can do. Save energy as best you can with your hot tub or spa. Hot tubs are major energy consumers, because they make sure the water is kept at a high temperature - and that takes energy, even in August. Fortunately, there are several ways to save energy and reduce both your environmental footprint and the strain on your budget at the same time.

1) Keep your hot tub covered when not in use. This is the same principal as keep your door closed in winter to keep the heat in, or in summer to keep the air conditioning in. Remember when your mother used to admonish you to "Keep the door closed. Are you trying to heat the whole neighbourhood?" Well, the same goes for your hot tub - keep the spa covered, or you'll heat the whole neighbourhood.

2) Turn it off. If you know you won't be around, you don't need the heat. That goes for vacations, long weekends, weeks when you know your schedule will be too busy to use the spa - any time when there will be more than two or three days in a row when you know you won't need your hot tub...turn off the heat. (NOTE: In winter weather, keep some heat going so that pipes don't freeze and equipment is not damaged. But you can still turn it way down while you are away for a week or more.

3) You might want also to buy a floating thermal blanket. Very cheap. Very light-weight. Very easy to put on your hot tub. You might consider buying a floating thermal blanket. They are lightweight. They are cheap They are easy to put on your hot tub. It will keep both heat and moisture in the tub and away from your cover. It saves energy and helps your hot tub last longer.

4) Let Mother Nature keep your energy use in check - with a little help from you, of course. A well-placed shrubbery or ornamental fence can also serve as a wind break. Wind blowing across the surface of your hot tub cools it down. A wind break keeps the wind from cooling the water, so you spend less energy heating it back up.

5. Are you a nighttime spa-user? Do you light up the are at night? Have you considered replacing electric lights with mood lighting - candlelight? Candles don't consume as much energy as electric lights do, and they offer the benefits of soothing ambiance, as well.

6) Keep your filters working well, and replace them as they show their age. Clogged filters slow down the circulation of water, straining the equipment, and making your motors work harder - and consuming more power. An overworked motor will also have a shorter life and need to be replaced sooner.

7) Don't waste water. The more water gets splashed around outside the tub, the more new water has to be replaced and reheated. Save water, save heat.

We all love our hot tubs but they are also big energy users. Keep the fun, let go of (some of) the energy. Make sure the hot tub you choose actually reduce energy rather than increasing it. These are some common-sense steps you can take to avoid digging too deep into your pockets and scarring too deeply the environment with your hot tub.
